Lance Kearse is a former Division I and professional basketball player turned holistic health advocate, entrepreneur, and educator. A standout at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and Eckerd College, Lance overcame two life-threatening hospitalizations caused by sickle cell trait — an experience that transformed his understanding of health and performance.
Refusing to accept the limits placed on him, Lance went on to play professional basketball in Spain and later earned an invitation to an NFL training camp with the Jacksonville Jaguars. His remarkable comeback story has been recognized in multiple athletic and wellness circles and serves as the foundation for his work today.
As the founder of KaptainPlantit and creator of The 7 Natural Doctors system, Lance has spent over a decade researching how nature, light, nutrition, and movement optimize human performance and recovery. His plant-based company has sold thousands of herbal and superfood products worldwide, and his message — “Be Your Own Doctor” — continues to inspire people to take control of their health through natural means.
Lance is also the host of The KaptainPlantit Podcast, where he bridges science, spirituality, and personal experience in conversations with experts like physicians, researchers, and athletes to explore the future of holistic health.
