Dr. Tyler LeBaron: Educator
Making Complex Science Make Sense
Dr. Tyler W. LeBaron has taught undergraduate and graduate courses ranging from sports nutrition and advanced exercise physiology to laboratory classes in chemistry and exercise sciences. He presents at CME/CEU-accredited medical conferences around the world and has delivered podcasts, presentations, webinars, and talks across 28 countries.

Tyler Started Doing Podcasts Reluctantly
He still had too many unanswered questions about molecular hydrogen, and he was not comfortable going on record about a field where the mechanisms were not fully understood. In some ways, he still is not entirely comfortable with it.
But the misinformation was moving faster than the research. People who actually understood the limitations of the science needed to be part of the public conversation, and most of them were not talking. So he started saying yes. He walked through what the evidence showed, what it did not show, and where gaps remain. The standard he kept was the same one he used in peer review: do not claim more than the data supports.
That same instinct is what drove the university teaching, the medical conference presentations, and the MHI educational programs. It was not a desire to build a platform. It was a recognition that accurate science does not reach people automatically. Someone has to carry it there.
How Dr. Tyler Teaches
His background spans biochemistry, exercise physiology, and nutrition, which means he can move between cellular mechanisms and real-world health applications in the same conversation. He does not simplify by removing detail. He simplifies by building context first, so the detail lands when it arrives.
He also reaches audiences that more combative science communicators often alienate. He corrects errors without attacking the people who made them. He holds a firm position on what the evidence shows while remaining genuinely open to the conversation. That combination is what makes him effective across settings as different as CME-accredited medical conferences and long-form podcast conversations.
What Dr. Tyler Teaches
Featured Topics:
1
Molecular Hydrogen: The Science Behind the Hype
What the research actually shows, where the gaps are, and how to evaluate the claims being made in the marketplace.
2
Critical Thinking in the Health and Wellness Space
How to read a study, spot pseudoscience, and build a personal framework for evaluating health information without outsourcing your judgment.
3
Exercise Physiology and Human Performance
Teaching the most effective exercise principles so people can tailor movement to their own needs and goals. Principles over protocols. This means cutting through overpromises and fitness hype to focus on what the best available evidence actually supports, and why that matters more than any single program or plan.
4
Discipline, Consistency, and the Long Game
What two decades of competing as a hybrid athlete alongside active research have taught him about showing up, staying the course, and building something that holds up over time.
Additional Topics
Podcasts and Long-Form Conversations
Podcasts are Dr. Tyler’s favorite format for teaching. Long-form conversations give complex ideas the time they need, without the pressure to reduce everything to a soundbite. Whether the topic is molecular hydrogen, exercise science, or how to think critically about health claims, Dr. Tyler brings preparation, nuance, and an honest take on what the research does and does not show.

Conferences and Live Events
Dr. Tyler speaks at medical conferences, academic symposia, and health and wellness events around the world. His presentations are CME/CEU accredited for physicians and have taken him to 28 countries. Whether the format is a keynote, a panel, or a workshop, the approach is the same whether the room holds twenty or two thousand.
Teaching at the University Level
Dr. Tyler is a part-time adjunct professor at Southern Utah University, where he has taught courses in exercise sciences and chemistry. He is also an educator at various health and medical conferences around the world. His university teaching and his public communication are not separate pursuits; each informs the other.
Advancing Hydrogen Science Through Education
In 2013, Dr. Tyler founded the Molecular Hydrogen Institute (MHI), a science-based nonprofit focused on advancing the research, education, and awareness of hydrogen as a therapeutic medical gas. Through MHI, he has built educational programs for researchers, practitioners, and the public, including certification courses designed to bring scientific rigor to a rapidly growing field.
MHI operates independently as a nonprofit organization.
In the News
Tyler and his work on molecular hydrogen have been featured in major publications worldwide.
