Dr. Cybele Mathai is a Board Certified Internal Medicine MD currently working as a primary care doc at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas. She is a single mom with a 13 year old son. She was born in Kerala, India and moved to the suburbs of Chicago when she was 5 and lived there through high school. Dr. Mathai attended medical school at Kasturba Medical College in Manipal, India and moved back to Chicago, where she completed her intern year. She then moved to Delaware where she completed her internal medicine residency. In 2005 after being sick of the winters, she moved to San Antonio, TX. Her interest in health and wellness started after going through a divorce in 2009 and realizing she needed to take care of herself so she could take care of her son and prevent the chronic medical problems that ran rampant in her family. She always had an interest in preventative medicine so she started talking to her patients about that, started the Couch to 5K running program and eventually ran 2 half marathons. She started working out to different Beachbody programs the first of which was Insanity and she loved it. This cemented her fitness journey. She tried a different variety of diet and nutrition plans, but what really changed her view on health and wellness was the book Deep Nutrition and discovering intermittent fasting. She took courses in Functional Medicine with IFM and loved their nutrition focused way of healing people. She started speaking to her patients about different ways they can reverse Diabetes, metabolic syndrome, gut issues and it made a difference. She is looking into getting a Lifestyle Medicine and Culinary Medicine certification so she can further her knowledge and be even better prepared to help others. Her belief is that we can live long healthy lives with a focus on nutrition, fasting, and movement by improving healthspan and not just lifespan.
