Who I am - Dr. Cristina Tomasi

Nice to meet you,
I’m Dr. Cristina Tomasi

I began practicing medicine in 1991 at the Bolzano hospital. That didn’t stop me from continuing to study, earning specializations and Master's degrees along the way.

I worked, studied, published, wrote—and my passion for medicine and research led me, in 2003, to embrace private practice.
I re-evaluated everything I had studied and practiced up to that point, choosing a more open approach, still firmly grounded in scientific evidence. This shift gave me a new perspective on the power of choice in building a meaningful, healthy life—starting with an “ancestral” approach to nutrition.

Together with my husband Helmuth, we tested different eating patterns firsthand, to understand how our bodies—and especially our metabolism—respond to new inputs. That’s how we began to uncover the deep link between nutrition and metabolic response.
As we explored and refined numerous dietary approaches (which would later become the foundation of my clinical work and Challenges), we also discovered the healing power of light and its connection to health through circadian rhythm alignment.

Today, I still feel the same passion and an ever-growing desire to learn. I remain open-minded, curious, critically aware, and deeply humble—qualities that help me break down cultural barriers and challenge the status quo, especially in the medical field where it is deeply rooted.

You don’t have to do what I did—but you can use the tools I’ve developed to become the true protagonist of your health. Always.

My

Mission

To guide people in reclaiming balance, energy, and health through a conscious, personalized, and sustainable way of eating — grounded in solid scientific evidence and supported by a lifestyle that respects circadian rhythms, natural light exposure, and physical activity. My goal is to educate, inspire, and provide practical tools to support real, lasting lifestyle changes, helping each person become the driving force behind their own metabolic, physical, and emotional well-being.

With Top Life Project, I like to think of turning science into action — creating programs that combine knowledge, motivation, and real-life impact.

My

Vision

To become a point of reference for those who wish to awaken their metabolic intelligence and reclaim true mind-body well-being — through transparency, scientific evidence, and openness to change.

I believe in the power of leading by example: that’s why I live what I teach every day, to inspire others to take care of themselves with awareness and intention.

This vision gave birth to Top Life Project— my platform and space for sharing practical tools to guide change and help those who follow me achieve their goals, step by step.

My books, your knowledge

After being a doctor, I made health education my mission.

Because when you're informed, you're free to choose what's best for you.

I believe it's essential to give everyone the right tools to make independent choices — not only to reach but to maintain their physical and emotional well-being over time.

I’ve learned to use the tools offered by technology and digital platforms to connect with as many people as possible, beyond the walls of my medical practice. And of course, I wanted to put into writing the concepts I consider most important. To date, I’ve published four printed books and several eBooks.

The latest, The Metabolism Revolution published by Vallardi Editore in March 2025, quickly climbed the national bestseller charts in bookstores and on Amazon — confirming what I’ve always sensed: people are hungry for awareness and ready to choose what truly supports their well-being.

"The Metabolism Revolution " explores key topics such as hormones , the connection between the nervous system and nutrition, and the debate around red meat — poison or powerful ally? It delves into what ketogenic (or keto) diets really are, along with the Paleo diet, low-carb approaches, and the carnivore diet, also known as Carnivor.

It covers the importance of physical activity, the link between mental health and food, the need to reduce inflammation to restore well-being, and discusses critical issues like infertility, cholesterol, fatty liver, type 2 diabetes — and hundreds of other essential insights to help you understand and choose the best path toward lasting health and vitality.

The previous book, "It’s Not Just About Hormones," helps fill an information gap around menopause and everything that comes with it, busting common myths and outlining a path toward physical and emotional well-being.

I explain why hormone replacement therapy — when appropriate — is simply the cherry on top.

Resetting your circadian rhythm, getting natural light exposure, learning to manage stress, and following a sustainable, long-term way of eating are accessible strategies that can radically improve your quality of life.

This book does cover hormones and hormone replacement therapy — clarifying the difference between conventional and bioidentical options — but more than anything, it’s meant to be a guide to greater self-awareness. Because while every woman is different, we all navigate the same waters of symptoms and challenges once we pass forty.

Did you

know…?

“Natural light and metabolism are deeply interconnected. The links are vast and strongly supported by extensive scientific literature.”

“In today’s society, exposure to natural light has dropped to a minimum, while artificial light surrounds us for over 90% of our daily time. This imbalance has a profound impact on our health — especially on metabolism.”

From my book The Metabolism Revolution:
The metabolic protocol to fight inflammation and insulin resistance,
prevent disease, slow aging, and lose weight
