Dana White, you might remember, used to be pretty fat. The UFC CEO, of course, is the epitome of fitness today and even has a ripped body complete with six-pack abs, which he revealed in 2022. But that was not always the case. Only a couple of years ago, the UFC CEO had a double chin, was pudgy, weighed nearly 300 lbs, and looked unhealthy. And this is not something we are saying. The Bossman himself has spoken about his sundry health issues and how he turned them around. The guy whom he credits for this miraculous turnaround, Gary Brecka, has spoken about just how ‘catastrophic’ White’s diagnosis was.
“Triglycerides are a measure of blood fat and shouldn’t be over 149 – two or three hundred is a ‘cataclysmic level,’ but his was 768,” Brecka said. Along with being pre-diabetic and insulin resistant, the UFC CEO also apparently had “skyrocketing levels of cholesterol.” And three years later, the Las Vegas resident opened up about the seriousness of his health issues yet again in a recent interview with Khloe Kardashian.
“What I found out is that he could tell you how long you could live. Then I became obsessed with that. I just wanted to know how long I was going to live,” White told the reality TV star. “But then that could be changed?” she asked. “Yes. He gave me 10.4 years,” White revealed, which alarmed Kardashian, who couldn’t help but exclaim, “That’s horrible.”
“Yeah, but definitely on point,” White admitted. “I mean, I was a mess. And now me and my wife, when we think about the 10.4 years, we’re like it was probably earlier than that. I mean, I had real bad sleep apnea, right? Like I’d wake up choking in the middle of the night and, like, my legs, I could barely put my shoes on… I was a mess and and you go see doctors, and the answer to all the problems is different pills, or more pills. Now I’m on no pills.”

Indeed, White has often talked about this. The ‘expert’ who gave him this diagnosis and then allegedly turned his health around was Gary Brecka, founder of the 10X Health programme. Brecka is a biologist by training and has claimed used to work in the insurance industry, where he was able to predict people’s lifespans with accuracy. Moreover, he has also passed on tips to high-performance athletes like Cristiano Ronaldo.
The biologist decided to take this life-span modelling to the general public, and White is one of the most notable people who got into his programme, and was told he had only ten years to live. But, thankfully, White was able to turn his health around, and credits Brecka for it.
Dana White speaks about how Gary Brecka saved his life
According to Dana White, Brecka got him started on his health programme, which starts with a battery of tests to determine exactly what is wrong with patients, followed by recommending treatments to turn around their health, including through supplements and dietary changes. And apparently, that worked wonders for the UFC CEO, who has spoken about how rapidly his health got better in an interview with ‘The Action Junkeez Podcast’.
He [Brecka] says, ‘If you do what I tell you to do for the next 10 weeks, I promise you I’ll change your whole life… So, I’m one of these people who, when I set my mind to do something, I absolutely do it. In five months, this guy has completely changed my life, and this is for all the naysayers that are saying it’s not true and it’s all well,” White said.
Notice White talking about ‘the naysayers’. Many people believe that White is paid by Brecka’s company to endorse it and talk it up among the UFC fanbase. But then again, White did have a pretty dramatic turnaround in his health in 2022. But if you are inclined to start on the programme for your health based upon the UFC CEO’s endorsement, it is important to remember that there is a possibility he may be paid to endorse it. What do you think about Dana White’s revelations about his erstwhile health issues?
