Our Mission: Build Health, Not Fight Disease

I founded Tagge Health to help people break free from the limitations of sick-care and step into a system designed for real health and transformation. If you’re looking for a new model of care that focuses on supporting your health, rather than diagnosing and managing illness, then you’ve come to the right place.

At Tagge Health, we practice Health Optimization Medicine® (HOMe)—a systems-based approach that uses metabolomics, mitochondrial bioenergetics, chronobiology, evolutionary medicine and more to restore the core processes that drive energy, function and longevity. Our mission is twofold: help individuals reclaim their health and participate in building the next model of health-centric human medicine.

If you’re ready to participate in what percision health is actually supposed to feel like, then let’s begin.

Here’s to your health, optimized!

Three Paradigm Shifts that Set Us Apart

    How We Build Health

    Most doctors are stuck managing disease. We specialize in Salutogenesis—the science of creating health. This is a massive perspective shift.

  • Reverse Biological Aging

    What if aging meant getting biologically younger? Neotenization is the process of restoring youthful function.

  • Cellular Defense Department

    Medicine is hyper-specialized, but which doctor’s job is it to protect your cells?

    It’s ours! We detect and correct deficiencies and toxicities that protect what matters most: the cell.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • HOMe is an emerging speciality of medicine focused exclusively on defining, measuring and supporting health, rather than treating disease.

  • We operate outside of the insurance model so we can spend more time with you, offer cutting-edge testing, and personalize your care without insurance restrictions. However, we provide superbills if you’d like to submit for reimbursement.

  • We go deeper. Functional medicine often stops at symptom management with supplements. We focus on first-principles biology, precision data and long-term transformation—not just trendy band-aids.

  • We use advanced metabolomics, gut & food sensitivity testing, hormone panels, continuous glucose monitoring and other wearables when needed. Everything is selected based on you.

  • Both. We help the unwell recover—and the healthy level up. Whether you’re healing from burnout or chasing peak performance, our protocols meet you where you are.

  • We offer better-than-concierge access with real-time messaging, monthly home visits (for local clients), and as-needed telehealth. Think of us as your personal health strategist on speed dial.

  • Yes—if you’re in North Carolina and want that. But most of our clients work with us in addition to their PCP for a deeper layer of care.

  • Start with a discovery call or apply for a consultation. We’ll help you decide if our model is the right fit and guide you to the best next step.
