Straight answers
No, and he is careful about the distinction. He holds a PhD and is board certified as a Certified Nutrition Specialist by the American College of Nutrition. He is not a physician and does not diagnose or treat disease.
No. CNS and RD are separate credentials from separate bodies with separate training routes. Both are real; they are not interchangeable, and anyone who tells you otherwise has not looked it up.
Not outside a paid session. In his own words, he cannot provide personal medical advice by email or review lab results unless you are a coaching client. General questions about how to read a lipid panel are fair game and welcome.
The dispensary is a practitioner account, so yes, there is a commercial relationship, and his advisory and spokesperson roles with Barlean's, BrainMD and Taiyo International are named on the Work with Jonny page. Judge the advice knowing that.
Often just one. Sometimes 75 minutes is all it takes to see things differently. Additional consultations or follow-up by Zoom, text, or email can be arranged on a case-by-case basis.
No, and he has never claimed it is. Most cardiologists hold that lowering LDL reduces cardiovascular risk. He argues the target is wrong. He makes that case in print, with citations, and expects you to read the other side too.
