Portrait of Sung Won, MD
Sung Won, MD

Sung Won, MD is a physician by training and an educator focused on translating longevity research into practical, sustainable habits.

Medical training

His medical education began at the University of Texas Medical Branch. He completed orthopedic surgery residency training at Washington University in St. Louis, followed by spine surgery fellowship training at William Beaumont Hospital and Washington University.

Across more than two decades, his work included clinical care, surgical innovation, and healthcare organization building.

Plant-forward nutrition education

His additional nutrition education includes completion of the Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate offered by the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and powered by eCornell. The program informs his plant-forward approach while this website continues to distinguish general education from individualized nutrition or medical care.

Current work

This publication examines sleep, movement, plant-forward eating, dietary protein, fiber and the microbiome, stress management, sauna, human connection, preventive health, brain health, risky substances, supplements, hydration, and caffeine. Each guide aims to separate established guidance from promising but preliminary evidence.

The website does not offer appointments, individualized treatment, prescriptions, or medical services.
