Nick & Nathan: A Decade of Trial and Error
Nick and Nathan met as personal trainers at Gold’s Gym, quickly bonding over their shared passion for movement, performance, and rehab work. While their professional experience was growing, their personal health was on the decline.
Nathan battled Bell’s Palsy and Lyme, suffering from a major health crisis during college. After weeks of injections, antibiotics, and intensive care, he left the hospital with barely any improvement—eventually realizing that toxic food, pharmaceuticals, and chronic stress were root causes that had to be addressed naturally.
Nick struggled with lifelong digestive issues, adrenal exhaustion, sleep problems, and mineral deficiencies. After following a plant-based diet for nearly 20 years—thinking it was the solution—his symptoms only worsened. It wasn’t until switching to raw dairy, meat, and ancestral foods that he saw real healing.
Both tried everything—from the Standard American Diet to extreme clean eating. Between the two of them, they spent tens of thousands of dollars on supplements and functional medicine programs. It wasn’t working.
From Gym Bros to Grounded Practitioners
After leaving Gold’s Gym, they set up their own training studio in a client’s basement and continued working with clients 1-on-1, refining what actually helped people get out of pain and into performance.
But they hit a new wall.
Most of their clients were busy adults and parents—people without time for elite-level training. They realized they needed a better, simpler system. One that could help anyone—at any level—feel better, get stronger, and actually stay consistent.
That’s when the Mitigate Stress Routine was born.
Discovering Faith and Purpose
Around the same time, Nick and Nathan began exploring their spiritual health. Years of New Age beliefs, atheism, and religious confusion left them searching for something deeper.
Their journey led them to Christ, and their faith became the missing pillar in their own healing.
They began restructuring their lives—and Mitigate Stress—to align with a higher purpose, a God-designed path for true health. Everything changed.
The Product Side: Magnesium and Beyond
The physical products you see today—from magnesium to shilajit—came out of a desire to create truly clean, effective tools. They developed their own magnesium bicarbonate using high-quality ingredients and a slow CO2 drip process. No outsourcing. No filler. Just integrity.
The mission: create the best wellness products and routines on the planet—starting with what they use every single day.
We’re Grateful You’re Here
Mitigate Stress isn’t just about supplements or routines—it’s about reclaiming your health from the ground up. Whether you’re new to wellness or a seasoned practitioner, we’re here to walk alongside you with honesty, faith, and a focus on what works.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
In Christ,
Nick & Nathan
