Bio:
Part CEO, part personal development wonk, and part biohacker info geek, Thom King is a self-confessed serial entrepreneur. While his favorite book list contains many success-oriented and personal-development classics, the traditional definition of achieving success (e.g. make a lot of money) is not what inspires or motivates King. He follows more of a \u201cyou aren\u2019t doing well unless you\u2019re also doing some good\u201d line of thinking. King\u2019s company has been built around the simple principle of \u201cdo the right thing.\u201d
In 1999, Thom\u2019s personal passion for food and his concern over the explosion of metabolic disease led him to found Steviva Brands, now known as Icon Foods, with a mission to stem the tide of \u201cdiabesity\u201d by providing consumers healthy alternatives to sugar. In recent years, his passion for food and optimal health have intersected with his embrace of a ketogenic (low carb, high fat) diet. Thom\u2019s latest project is a line of ketogenic condiments intended to help more people successfully adopt a healthier lifestyle.
