In this show, Dr. Osborneinterviews Ari Whitten, an expert in infrared light and health. They will discuss Ari's early interest in the science of light and how he started experimenting with different light sources. Certain parts of the light spectrum, particularly blue light and red/near-infrared light, have significant effects on human biology. These lights interact with hormones and genes in our body, influencing various functions such as energy production, growth, repair, and inflammation reduction. Light is like a nutrient for the body and humans have evolved to require specific light nutrients for optimal health.They will also discuss the differences between red light and near-infrared light and their respective benefits. Additionally, Ari will address misconceptions about infrared saunas and provide advice on sun exposure based on skin type and melanin production.For more information, on Ari and his work/research,visit: https://theenergyblueprint.com/referral.html?p=Glutenology&w=tebTo connect with Dr. Osborne visit:On the web: https://drpeterosborne.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoctorPeterOsborne/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/docosborne/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drosborneTwitter: https://twitter.com/glutenologyRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-3908832*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

In this special "Asprey Archive" episode of The Human Upgrade, you'll find out why you're tired, how to fix it and ways to increase your energy. Fatigue is a hidden epidemic, with chronic fatigue syndrome being the most severe end, but most people (in the U.S.) are experiencing some level of being flat-out tired as hell.Our guest is Ari Whitten, Ph.D. (Cand.), CES, PES, who came on the show in 2022. Ari argues that as a culture, we have normalized fatigue. In his book, “EAT FOR ENERGY: How to Beat Fatigue, Supercharge Your Mitochondria, and Unlock All-Day Energy,” he explains that 5.4 million adults in the U.S. have been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome (the most severe case of fatigue). However, the true fatigue epidemic affects 50 to 100 times more people.Ari outlines the major factors impacting mitochondrial health, including poor sleep, excess body fat, and an unhealthy gut, and offers solutions like nutritional strategies and key supplements to enhance energy. With over 25 years in natural health science and a personal history with chronic fatigue, Ari brings invaluable insights into combating fatigue through his Energy Blueprint programs and podcast, where he connects with experts on revitalizing human energy.Sponsors:Pendulum | Get 20% off membership at https://pendulumlife.com with code Asprey20 ARMRA | Go to https://www.TryARMRA.com and use code Dave for 15% off Resources:Ari's book: FOR ENERGY: How to Beat Fatigue, Supercharge Your Mitochondria, and Unlock All-Day EnergyDave Asprey's Book ‘Smarter Not Harder' is out now: https://daveasprey.com/books Follow Dave on Instagram: @Dave.Asprey Follow The Human Upgrade: @TheHumanUpgradePodcast Want to join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live?

For the second top episode of 2023, we are going back to the basics! That may sound boring to some, but for those that really want to understand how red light therapy can by modern day's "magic bullet," it's worth learning (and, for some of you, reviewing) the foundations of the mitochondria and the mechanisms of how red light therapy works. I'm a dork and I love this type of information. I hope you learn and enjoy it as well...   Did you know red light therapy is a hormetic stressor to our cells similar to exercise? This week on The Red Light Report, we are going to review some of the fundamentals of red light therapy that include the two proposed mechanisms of how red light therapy actually works. And while you may already understand some of the basic concepts, I think there will be plenty of new, in-depth information that will add some color to your current red light therapy knowledge.Especially living in the Information Age, we hear/read/listen to so much information all of the time, that we rarely ingrain any of it. That's why repetition of the same information, particularly when its presented in different ways will lead to a deeper understanding and application of the knowledge. In today's episode, I will cover the mechanisms for how red light therapy works; both the agreed upon mechanisms (boosting mitochondrial function and hormesis) and the theoretical mechanisms (water as a photoacceptor and chlorophyll metabolites in our blood leading to increased light absorption and energy production). All of it is very fascinating and speaks to the various ways that light, especially red and near-infrared light, can positively impact our physiology.While listening to the information in this episode, consider what lifestyle changes you could make to further optimize your mitochondrial health (structured water and green veggies/supplements, anyone?). As always, light up your health and enjoy! - Key points: Intro: (0:00) How red light therapy works: (1:54) The ultimate guide to red light therapy - Ari Whitten: (4:35) Two key mechanisms of red & near-infrared light therapy: (7:00) Mechanism #1 - stimulating mitochondrial production: (8:05) Where red light therapy does most "magic": (14:36) How red light therapy really works: (15:23) Red light therapy lets oxygen into the mitochondria: (22:41) Mechanism #2 - The hormetic response: (24:34) Red light therapy mimics exercise: (28:14) Potential mechanisms: (29:16) Capturing sunlight energy: (35:19) CoQ10: (36:01) Near-infrared penetrates deeper: (38:44) Benefits of consuming chlorophyll: (41:48) The scientific consensus: (43:55) - Book referenced in the episode: The Ultimate Guide To Red Light Therapy - Ari Whitten - Save 20% via BioLight Bundles all year long! - Dr. Mike's #1 recommendations: Grounding products: Earthing.com EMF-mitigating products: Somavedic Blue light blocking glasses: Ra Optics - To learn more about red light therapy, methylene blue, and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit https://www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Instagram YouTube Facebook

Optimize function and enhance overall cellular resilience!  Join bestselling author and natural health expert Ari Whitten, M.S., as he breaks down the key components of your energy source and unlocks the power and resilience of mitochondria!  Mitochondria, the cellular powerhouses, serve an important role in determining how much energy we have each day. They are symbiotic, separate entities that have their own DNA yet play a central role in our metabolism. They also work in conjunction with our system and communicate with the body's DNA, influencing gene expressions and protein production. Just like our muscles, mitochondria require both stress and challenge to function optimally. Hormetic stressors like exercise, thermal stress, fasting, hypoxia, and specific plant compounds stimulate the mitochondria, making them more robust. This process forms the basis of cellular resilience, which impacts how well the body copes with various stressors, including psychological stress, poor nutrition, sleep deprivation, and environmental toxins. Mitochondria are not simply energy producers but are actively involved in influencing gene expression and cellular resilience as well.  Listen now and strengthen your mitochondria for overall health and well-being!  Follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/feelfreakingamazing/ 

Today, I am blessed to have here with me the Founder of The Energy Blueprint, Ari Whitten. He is an energy and fatigue specialist who focuses on taking an evidence-based approach to energy enhancement,  a nutrition, exercise, and natural health expert, and a #1 best-selling author.  He has been studying nutrition and holistic health for over two decades. He has a Bachelor of Science from San Diego State University in Kinesiology (specializing in fitness, nutrition, and health). He also has a background in exercise physiology and fitness and holds two advanced certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a Corrective Exercise Specialist and Performance Enhancement Specialist. In addition, he recently completed the three years of coursework for his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, an education which rounds out all aspects – nutrition, fitness, and psychology – of his approach to optimal health. Ari is a tireless researcher who has obsessively devoted the last 20 years of his life to the pursuit of being on the cutting edge of the science of health and energy enhancement. For the last six years, he's been working with many of the top scientists and physicians on the planet to develop the most comprehensive program in the world on the science of overcoming fatigue and increasing energy — The Energy Blueprint. In this episode, Ari first speaks about his Epstein Barr Virus diagnosis and how that took him down a rabbit hole of energy optimization. One way to improve chronic fatigue is by growing more mitochondria; Ari explains how this is possible. Then, Ari dives into melatonin and tips for fixing a circadian rhythm disruption.

Unfortunately, Ari got very sick with Epstein Barr Virus and mononucleosis in his mid-twenties. He lost about thirty-five pounds in the span of a month; he couldn't eat because the back of his throat was so swollen.  Ari was left with chronic fatigue; it shifted his entire life.  So, Ari started to focus on the world of energy optimization; he became obsessed with energy science. Conventional medical doctors had no information to offer Ari.  After doing research, Ari found that science actually does not support the idea that adrenal fatigue is a significant cause of chronic fatigue. Well, Ari realized that no one truly understands what is causing fatigue.  [08:45] The Key To Overcoming Fatigue Is Growing More Mitochondria  Finding ways to grow more mitochondria and strengthen your mitochondria is a massive key to the puzzle of overcoming fatigue.  The mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell.  We are taught to think of mitochondria as these mindless energy generators. Something you may not know is the mitochondria have a dual role beyond energy production, which is just as important as their role in energy production.  The mitochondria also help with energy regulation.  Your energy levels are a function of the degree to which your mitochondria decide if you're safe or if you're under attack.  [17:50] Hormetic Stressors Will Make Your Mitochondria Bigger and Stronger  Hormetic stress is how a transient metabolic stressor works to stimulate beneficial adaptations that ultimately increase resilience and resistance in the face of a broad range of other stressors.  Basically, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.  By exposing yourself to moderate stressors within your body's capacity, you make your body more robust and more resistant.  Hormetic stressors are vital for challenging our mitochondria and stimulating them in a way that makes them bigger and stronger. [27:30] Is Your Body Under Attack? Your Brain Will Create Sickness Behavior When cells are under attack, they shift all their resources to defense mode.  Cells will go into defense mode to protect themselves. They also go into defense mode as an evolutionary adaptive mechanism to help the body's energy and resources be redirected towards defending against the threat. When we have lots of immune activation and elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines, the brain responds by also creating sickness behavior, which includes fatigue. When your brain creates sickness behavior, it protects you from over-expending energy and depleting resources.  [42:40] The Importance of Melatonin: What You Need To Know You get 50 to 70 percent suppression of melatonin secretion by the brain in the evenings due to simply being in a typical home under standard indoor home lighting.  Melatonin is a vital hormone for protecting your mitochondria and protecting your brain's neurons.  If you're chronically suppressing melatonin at the cellular level, you will have chronic melatonin deficiency.  Sadly, melatonin doesn't get the respect that it deserves.  [1:05:15] Ari Is Hypersensitive To Melatonin Supplements - Are You?  Ari is hypersensitive to melatonin if he takes it in supplement form. After polling his audience, about 25% of people are sensitive to melatonin.  People who take melatonin for a significant time will sleep poorly after coming off of it. It will take people a few days for sleep to normalize without taking melatonin.  AND MUCH MORE!

Kashif Khan discusses Functional Genomics with Dr. Ben Weitz. [If you enjoy this podcast, please give us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts, so more people will find The Rational Wellness Podcast. Also check out the video version on my WeitzChiro YouTube page.]  Podcast Highlights 4:12  Genetics vs Functional Genomics.  The difference between genetics and functional genomics is that genetics might tell us here's what this gene does and we'll speak about it independently.  For example, when it comes to methylation, you might say that you have the MTHFR gene and you need to take folate is genetics. Functional genomics looks at how the body actually works and recognizes that methylation is one part of phase two of detoxification. There is also glutathionization, glucuronidation, and antioxidation.  There's all these detox functions happening in the body.  And if I don't pair them, I haven't understood the full cascade.  What does my body do from the point that a toxin enters to the point that it gets out?  So first understand that, and there's not one gene that does every single step along the way.  There's multiple processes.  When you connect them and you have your full functional answer, you can then solve the problem fully also.  5:39  Kashif made an appearance on Ari Whitten's Energy Blueprint and Ari asked if a woman has the BRCA gene should she have her breasts cut off?  The genetic answer is yes, but that is because pure genetics is pharma and disease backwards.  If you have the genetics and you ask why are you waiting to treat the disease, then you would remove the breasts.  If you ask the wrong question, you get the wrong answer.  But instead, if you ask why does the disease happen in the first place?  You understand that BRCA doesn't cause cancer. BRCA is actually a tumor suppressor and when you have breast cancer, BRCA is supposed to come along and fix it.  And if you have the wrong version, you just have a bad repair tool. So you're more likely to die from breast cancer because you can't come back from it. So we're solving the wrong problem once again. Why did the cancer happen to begin with?  That question is better answered by looking at if the woman is estrogen dominant and does she make a lot of estrogen?   Also, how does she metabolize her estrogen, which can be analyzed with DUTCH testing that measures which pathway the body uses to metabolize estrogen--the 2, the 4, or the 16 hydroxyestrogen pathway, with the 2 being healthiest and 4 and 16 being more toxic.  Bad genes do not equal disease. You also have to look at diet, lifestyle, and environmental exposures.  This woman's bad choices may be that she goes on the birth control pill for 10 years that elevates her estrogen level.  Then she goes on Bioidentical Hormone Therapy (BHRT).  Not that you shouldn't go on BHRT, but if you take the wrong form of estrogen and if you cook with a teflon pan and use conventional cleaning chemicals and get exposed to pesticides on her lawn that fuel the 4-hydroxy pathway.  Why do we see breast cancer more commonly around the menopause age?  It is because at that age, you no longer have a menstrual cycle and you no longer have the ability to get rid of this toxic load that you're making every month. And your body stores it in fat, such as in your breasts, to protect you because it doesn't want your organs and your vasculature getting damaged.  This reduces potential inflammation in the arteries, but it leads to inflammation in the breasts and you may get cellular degradation, mutation, and eventually cancer. And if you have the wrong version of BRCA, you're not going to fight the cancer so well.                                                               Kashif Khan is the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of The DNA Company, where personalized medicine is being pioneered through unique insights into the human genome.

Today Dr. Tim is replaying one of his favorite episodes of The Boss Body Podcast! Dr. Tim Jackson and Ari Whitten discuss the importance of mitochondrial health for optimal health and hormone balance. They explain how mitochondria are not just energy generators but also environmental sensors that sense signals from the environment based on the degree of threats or danger signals or total body stress load that the body is under. The discussion also covers the concept of the cell danger response and the two modes of mitochondria - energy production and cellular defense. They suggest ways to enhance mitochondrial health, including reintegrating hormetic stress into daily life through exercise, breath holding practices, intermittent hypoxic training, and sauna therapy.     To connect with Ari Whitten, read the EPISODE TRANSCRIPT, links mentioned in today's episode, and more, visit: https://healyourbody.org/unlocking-the-secret-to-optimal-health-the-power-of-mitochondrial-health-with-ari-whitten/

Did you know red light therapy is a hormetic stressor to our cells similar to exercise? This week on The Red Light Report, we are going to review some of the fundamentals of red light therapy that include the two proposed mechanisms of how red light therapy actually works. And while you may already understand some of the basic concepts, I think there will be plenty of new, in-depth information that will add some color to your current red light therapy knowledge.Especially living in the Information Age, we hear/read/listen to so much information all of the time, that we rarely ingrain any of it. That's why repetition of the same information, particularly when its presented in different ways will lead to a deeper understanding and application of the knowledge. In today's episode, I will cover the mechanisms for how red light therapy works; both the agreed upon mechanisms (boosting mitochondrial function and hormesis) and the theoretical mechanisms (water as a photoacceptor and chlorophyll metabolites in our blood leading to increased light absorption and energy production). All of it is very fascinating and speaks to the various ways that light, especially red and near-infrared light, can positively impact our physiology.While listening to the information in this episode, consider what lifestyle changes you could make to further optimize your mitochondrial health (structured water and green veggies/supplements, anyone?). As always, light up your health and enjoy! - Dr. Mike Belkowski discusses the following: Intro: (0:00) How red light therapy works: (1:54) The ultimate guide to red light therapy - Ari Whitten: (4:35) Two key mechanisms of red & near-infrared light therapy: (7:00) Mechanism #1 - stimulating mitochondrial production: (8:05) Where red light therapy does most "magic": (14:36) How red light therapy really works: (15:23) Red light therapy lets oxygen into the mitochondria: (22:41) Mechanism #2 - The hormetic response: (24:34) Red light therapy mimics exercise: (28:14) Potential mechanisms: (29:16) Capturing sunlight energy: (35:19) CoQ10: (36:01) Near-infrared penetrates deeper: (38:44) Benefits of consuming chlorophyll: (41:48) The scientific consensus: (43:55) - Book referenced in the episode: The Ultimate Guide To Red Light Therapy - Ari Whitten - Check out BioLight's newest device: the Glow! - Check out the Kindle version of Red Light Therapy Treatment Protocols eBook, 4th Edition - To learn more about red light therapy and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit https://www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Instagram YouTube Facebook

We've all heard mitochondria described as “the powerhouse of the cell”. But what we know now is that mitochondria have a second role beyond being energy generators, and are of central importance in human physiology.   Today we're discussing everything you need to know about mitochondria, specifically how the story of energy and the story of aging are very much centered around the health of our mitochondria. Luckily, the loss of mitochondria is not a natural product of aging, and there are ways to support and rebuild our mitochondrial networks as we get older.   I'm joined by Ari Whitten, M.S., the founder of The Energy Blueprint. We take a deep dive into how mitochondria work, including the second role they play as environmental sensors. We also discuss how to support and maintain your mitochondria, and the best supplements for optimizing your mitochondria. If you struggle with chronic fatigue, you'll want to tune in to learn how mitochondria is impacting your energy levels, and what you can do about it.   Ari Whitten, M.S. is the best-selling author of The Ultimate Guide To Red Light Therapy, and Eat For Energy: How To Beat Fatigue, and Supercharge Your Mitochondria For All-Day Energy. He has a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a Corrective Exercise Specialist and Performance Enhancement Specialist, has completed extensive graduate training in Clinical Psychology, and holds a Master of Science degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine.   Ari is a tireless researcher who has obsessively devoted the last 27 years of his life to the pursuit of being on the cutting edge of the science on health and human energy optimization.   What we discuss: 00:02:46 - How to start with supporting your mitochondria  00:11:28 - How mitochondria can impact your energy levels 00:18:27 - Why losing mitochondria is not a natural product of aging  00:22:22 - Ways to maintain mitochondria  00:25:20 - Melatonin production 00:30:06 - Light exposure and melatonin production  00:41:33 - Supporting your mitochondria at the foundational level  00:47:57 - EMF sensitivity 00:56:04 - The blueprint to optimizing your mitochondria  01:02:49 - The most powerful supplements for optimizing your mitochondria    Key Takeaways: All the same things that boost our mitochondrial capacity for energy production are also going to translate into increased longevity and resistance to disease. The loss of mitochondria is not a natural product of aging, but is the result of modern lifestyles. Challenging your mitochondria by living a more active lifestyle will help support and rebuild your mitochondrial networks as you get older. Mitochondria have a second role beyond their role as energy generators, and that is as environmental sensors. Not only are the mitochondria actually producing energy, they are making the decision on whether or not to produce that energy.   Find more from Nathalie: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmholC48MqRC50UffIZOMOQ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/462749384302295 Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/biohackingsuperhumanperformance Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nathalieniddam/ Work with Nat: Book Your 20 MInute Optimization Consult: https://calendly.com/nniddam/intro-call?month=2021-08 Find more from Ari Whitten, M.S.: Email: affiliates@theenergyblueprint.com Website: theenergyblueprint.com About the Sponsors: Mitopure: Use code NAT10 for 10% your order at https://www.mitopure.com/ Profound Health: You can purchase Primeadine at https://oxfordhealthspan.com/products/best-spermidine-supplement and use promo code BIONAT15 to save 15% of your first order.

IN THIS “BEST OF” EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™…… Ari Whitten, Ph.D. (Cand.), CES, PES, explains how to double your energy through improved resilience, cell defense, nutrition and supplementation. In his newest book, “EAT FOR ENERGY: How to Beat Fatigue, Supercharge Your Mitochondria, and Unlock All-Day Energy,” Ari explains that 5.4 million adults in the U.S. have been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome (the most severe case of fatigue). However, the true fatigue epidemic affects 50 to 100 times more people with many experiencing some level of being flat-out tired as hell.This conversation gets right into the role of mitochondria in human energy. The cause of fatigue is mitochondrial dysfunction, Ari says. The biggest factors that affect your mitochondria include:Circadian rhythm dysregulation and poor sleep Carrying too much body fat and too little muscle mass Poor gut and microbiome health Blood sugar dysregulation Nutritional toxicities and deficiencies Neurotransmitter and hormone imbalances Ari recommends science-backed ways that you can get your mitochondria moving, dial in your nutrition and upgrade your brain, gut and hormones.

Did you know you might be mal-illuminated? If you're not getting enough exposure to full-spectrum UV light (aka soaking up some sun), your cells might not be working as well as they should. Here to *enlighten* us about how our bodies use UV light and how red light therapy can be beneficial is physical therapist and founder/CEO of BioLight, Dr. Mike Belkowski.  We'll go over how red light and infrared light therapy works, some of the things it can be used for, and why we all probably need to get outside more. Let's get juicy! PS - Thanks to Dr. Mike, I started using a travel-sized red light device from his line called the Shine. I became a believer when my digestion was off the day we filmed this podcast, and he told me to put it directly on my stomach for 10 minutes and see if I felt a difference. Not only did my stomach ache get better – my mind felt calmer too, which he explained is because red light therapy works on the gut-brain axis. I've truly loved this device ever since and keep it next to my bed in case I wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep (a few minutes on my forehead or stomach works like a charm to calm my mind down). I've also used it for headaches and a mood boost in the winter months!

SHR # 2883:: How to Beat Fatigue PLUS Fix Your Low HGH - Ari Whitten - Alex Leaf - Dustin Baker - Diet in medicine is fast becoming understood as an important therapeutic. 2400 years ago Hippocrates said "Let food be thy medicine" but the father of medicine had no way of knowing how distorted and outright harmful what we call food today would be. Chronic Fatigue is a disease of modernity that physicians don't understand nor know how to treat. Mitochondria dysfunction plays an important role in chronic fatigue. And many areas of science has shown diet plays a pivotal role in Mitochondria function. PLUS Did you know the reason BPC157 may not work for you in helping with recovery and tissue healing may be you aren't producing enough Growth Hormone? Here's what you can do about it.

Your mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of a cell for a reason. Their job is to power nearly every function and biochemical process that happens in your body. With a lot of tasks to perform, it's important to keep your mitochondria healthy. Ari Whitten—author of Eat for Energy: How to Beat Fatigue, Supercharge Your Mitochondria, and Unlock All-Day Energy—provides nutrition and lifestyle strategies that can be a gamechanger for improving your mitochondrial function and enhancing your energy, focus, mood, and memory.

If You Want To Empower Your Plate to Balance Your Blood Sugar, You Should: Focus on the Fab 4 of protein, fats, fiber, and leafy greens Be aware of hidden liquid sugars that could be causing internal chaos Understand the science of what is happening in your body through tools like a CGM   It has never been more confusing to figure out what to eat. It seems like every ‘health guru' out there has a different opinion, which is why it is no wonder that millions of people fail at these fad diets every single year. The truth is, no fad diet is sustainable. Controlling your health through what you eat comes down to three simple truths. Hormones matter more than calories, real whole foods are best, and it is always important to take your blood sugar balance into account when it comes to what you are feeding yourself and your family.   The Fab 4 Fundamentals with Kelly LeVeque Kelly LeVeque is a holistic nutritionist, wellness expert, celebrity health coach, and the best-selling author of Body Love and Body Love Every Day. She has a deep desire to help her clients through her passion for human nutrition and curiosity about how the human body works. She helps people understand the latest research and rationale behind important nutrition principles and provide delicious recipes and recommended products to fuel properly. Her Fab 4 Fundamentals course simplifies the science of nutrition to empower participants to confidently take charge of their health.   Not Another Fad Diet Maintaining blood sugar balance through real food is critical for supporting brain function, mood, energy, reproductive health, and overall metabolism. While the fad diets out there will try and convince you that you need a magic pill to achieve this, all you really need is a whole food and an understanding of what is happening with your blood sugar throughout the day. Kelly's Fab 4 Philosophy focuses on proteins, fats, fiber, and leafy greens to help both adults and children balance their blood sugar through food and create generational, long-lasting health. When it comes to creating metabolic flexibility, you need to be strategic about what you are putting on your plate so that you can show up for yourself and others.   Your Kids Are Learning From Their Plates The Fab 4 Philosophy isn't just for adults. Kelly knows firsthand that what your kids are ingesting, especially liquid sugar, may be having a much bigger effect on your child than you realize. Kelly is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to regulating your child's blood sugar, while you can make healthy decisions for your family knowing the why behind it. So much of our mood, concentration, and focus, have so much to do with what we eat. If you are able to naturally balance your blood sugar, you can stop feeling like you are on a rollercoaster and stabilize your metabolism so that you can show up today, tomorrow, and far beyond. Are you ready to balance your and your family's blood sugar through simple, natural whole foods? Share how you are working to regulate and support your blood sugar and metabolic flexibility with me in the comments section of the episode page.   Quotes: "Blood sugar balance can be supported by the food that we eat if we are eating a mix of macronutrients." (9:32) "We cannot think about sugar and sweetened foods as just 'this is something that makes us gain weight. We have to think about all of the detrimental effects that are contributing to our overall well-being." (16:45) "All your children really want is quality time with you. And guess what? You are going to give them better quality time when your blood sugar is balanced and you are not craving, not crashing, not irritable when you can focus. Because all of these same effects I am talking about for children when they have proper blood sugar balance, we have as adults." (20:47) "I am not a huge fan of liquid sugar and I am looking to avoid them as much as possible based on the fact that I know that not only am I going to deal with a toddler who is having a tantrum or needs to sleep it off, it just creates that blood sugar rollercoaster." (41:51) “You are not doing this for your vanity, you're doing it for generational health. Health over generations that you are able to gift your child.” (50:32)   In This Episode The #1 thing you need to learn about what is happening with your blood sugar (11:05) Why the first meal of the day really is the most important when it comes to your health (21:33) Learn why liquid sugars are the silent culprits to your unstable blood sugar levels (27:45) What you should be feeding your children in order to protect them from unstable blood sugar (38:21) How protein can protect you and your family from blood sugar chaos (52:45)   Resources Mentioned: Use Promo Code ‘podcast' for 10% Off Your Order at the Essentially Whole Store Here Get Dr. Mariza's Smoothie and Shake Free Ebook Here Kelly LeVeque Website Fab 4 Smoothie Recipes   Other Resources: Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube Podcast production & marketing support by the team at Counterweight Creative   Related Episodes Essentially You Episode #370: How Our Daily Food Choices Make or Break Our Energy Levels and The Number 1 Thing to Overcome Chronic Fatigue with Ari Whitten

He talks about the real root causes of fatigue, how nutrition and circadian function are interlinked and how to optimize them, the real reasons we're seeing a rise in obesity and how we can reverse it and some practical shifts that make a big difference in your body composition.

If You Want to Gain More Energy, You Should: Focus on creating a solid circadian rhythm foundation  Optimize your body composition through blood sugar regulation techniques Remember to use healthy foods as your fuel instead of focusing on a strict diet   Has burnout or chronic fatigue become so normal in your life that you are just used to living with it? We are facing an energy epidemic in this country due to our modern lifestyles, but it doesn't have to be this way.  The good news is there are simple solutions that you can add to your daily routine that will restore your energy levels and give you the resilience to move past burnout.   Eat for Energy with Ari Whitten Ari Whitten is the founder of The Energy Blueprint system, a comprehensive lifestyle and supplement program which has helped more than two million people (and counting) experience optimal health, better performance, and more energy. His new book, Eat for Energy, combines his 25+ years of experience in the study of human health science to help others supercharge their mitochondria, beat fatigue, and unlock all-day energy.   Mitochondria is King Ari believes that there are two fundamental causes to our society's overwhelming lack of energy. The overall stress on our bodies from our environment and lifestyle, and what is going on with our mitochondria. We all know that challenging our mitochondria is the key to optimizing our bodies' hormonal production throughout the day and getting the energy that we require. But how do we challenge our mitochondria properly? Through simple lifestyle changes and changing the way we look at our food supply.   How to Create More Energy Ari isn't interested in giving you another extreme elimination diet. Instead, he focuses on giving people simple, effective tools using whole foods to help optimize their body's composition, regulate their blood sugar, provide them with a strong circadian rhythm, and ultimately have more energy and feel better. Instead of focusing on all of the things you have to remove from your diet, Ari challenges you to add foods into your life that reverse the issues that have to do with mitochondrial health. When you can implement these few simple solutions, your energy production will come back in a whole new light. Are you ready to overcome your chronic fatigue? Share what lifestyle and food shifts have been a game-changer for you with me in the comments section of the episode page.   Quotes: "There is a mismatch between our evolutionary design, how we have been designed by millions of years of evolution, and the modern environment that we are now living in and the modern lifestyle we now have." (7:43) "I think that in 5 or 10 years, that story is not only going to be known, but it is going to be recognized as one of the most important aspects to mitochondrial health, and overall health and disease prevention and longevity." (25:37) “I am not claiming this is the one true best way to eat. I am compiling many decades of nutrition science and putting together a whole bunch of flexible nutrition strategies that can be layered with and integrated into basically any dietary pattern you want.” (29:03) “All of those things I just mentioned take virtually zero effort to do. And if you integrate all of those super low effort things I just mentioned into your life, you haven't even changed your diet at all yet, but you have made a massive impact on your blood sugar regulation which is one of the major drivers of your energy levels.” (39:49) “People know that donuts and ice cream and pizza are not good for them. There is no confusion about that. The issue is those foods are tasty and pleasurable and addicting, and so I am putting much more focus on the best foods to eat, and the principles of how to eat and when to eat and the order of how you eat your foods and things of that nature. So much more of a positive focus of what you are adding into your diet than on any sort of extreme removal approach.” (47:09)   In This Episode Why we are seeing so many people struggle with low energy in modern life (7:14) How to begin to rebuild robust mitochondria when coming from a place of burnout (12:11) The importance of building a strong circadian rhythm foundation and lifestyle (27:36) Easy tips for utilizing your fat and deregulated sugar as an energy source (33:05) Which kinds of food you should be thinking about for boosting your energy (41:25)   Resources Mentioned: Use Promo Code ‘podcast' for 10% Off Your Order at the Essentially Whole Store Here Eat for Energy by Ari Whitten   Other Resources: Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube Podcast production & marketing support by the team at Counterweight Creative   Related Episodes Essentially You Episode #125: Secrets to Building a High-Energy Body with Ari Whitten Essentially You Episode #195: How Do You Get More Energy, Like Yesterday?

Unfortunately, Ari got very sick with Epstein Barr Virus and mononucleosis in his mid-twenties. He lost about thirty-five pounds in the span of a month; he couldn't eat because the back of his throat was so swollen.  Ari was left with chronic fatigue; it shifted his entire life.  So, Ari started to focus on the world of energy optimization; he became obsessed with energy science. Conventional medical doctors had no information to offer Ari.  After doing research, Ari found that science actually does not support the idea that adrenal fatigue is a significant cause of chronic fatigue. Well, Ari realized that no one truly understands what is causing fatigue.  [08:45] The Key To Overcoming Fatigue Is Growing More Mitochondria  Finding ways to grow more mitochondria and strengthen your mitochondria is a massive key to the puzzle of overcoming fatigue.  The mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell.  We are taught to think of mitochondria as these mindless energy generators. Something you may not know is the mitochondria have a dual role beyond energy production, which is just as important as their role in energy production.  The mitochondria also help with energy regulation.  Your energy levels are a function of the degree to which your mitochondria decide if you're safe or if you're under attack.  [17:50] Hormetic Stressors Will Make Your Mitochondria Bigger and Stronger  Hormetic stress is how a transient metabolic stressor works to stimulate beneficial adaptations that ultimately increase resilience and resistance in the face of a broad range of other stressors.  Basically, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.  By exposing yourself to moderate stressors within your body's capacity, you make your body more robust and more resistant.  Hormetic stressors are vital for challenging our mitochondria and stimulating them in a way that makes them bigger and stronger. [27:30] Is Your Body Under Attack? Your Brain Will Create Sickness Behavior When cells are under attack, they shift all their resources to defense mode.  Cells will go into defense mode to protect themselves. They also go into defense mode as an evolutionary adaptive mechanism to help the body's energy and resources be redirected towards defending against the threat. When we have lots of immune activation and elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines, the brain responds by also creating sickness behavior, which includes fatigue. When your brain creates sickness behavior, it protects you from over-expending energy and depleting resources.  [42:40] The Importance of Melatonin: What You Need To Know You get 50 to 70 percent suppression of melatonin secretion by the brain in the evenings due to simply being in a typical home under standard indoor home lighting.  Melatonin is a vital hormone for protecting your mitochondria and protecting your brain's neurons.  If you're chronically suppressing melatonin at the cellular level, you will have chronic melatonin deficiency.  Sadly, melatonin doesn't get the respect that it deserves.  [1:05:15] Ari Is Hypersensitive To Melatonin Supplements - Are You?  Ari is hypersensitive to melatonin if he takes it in supplement form. After polling his audience, about 25% of people are sensitive to melatonin.  People who take melatonin for a significant time will sleep poorly after coming off of it. It will take people a few days for sleep to normalize without taking melatonin.  AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode:  Check out The Energy Blueprint: https://theenergyblueprint.com Follow Ari Whitten & The Energy Blueprint  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theenergyblueprint/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theenergyblueprint/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnQo6oCvS6YuvaablyMT_sw Twitter: https://twitter.com/ari_whitten Eat for Energy: How to Beat Fatigue, Supercharge Your Mitochondria, and Unlock All-Day Energy: Purchase Ari's new book Eat For Energy here: https://bit.ly/3Fka6VB Ari's Books: https://www.amazon.com/Ari-Whitten/e/B00K9VPNY8/benazadi-20 Email for gifts: Ari@theenergyblueprint.com The Energy Blueprint Store: https://store.theenergyblueprint.com/# Listen to The Energy Blueprint: https://theenergyblueprint.com/podcast/ Join the Keto Kamp Academy: https://ketokampacademy.com/7-day-trial-a Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Free 7 Day Keto Challenge May 9th 2022.

Fatigue is a hidden epidemic, with chronic fatigue syndrome being the most severe end, but most people (in the U.S.) are experiencing some level of being flat-out tired as hell.Guest Ari Whitten, Ph.D. (Cand.), CES, PES, says that as a culture, we have normalized fatigue. In his newest book, “EAT FOR ENERGY: How to Beat Fatigue, Supercharge Your Mitochondria, and Unlock All-Day Energy,” he explains that 5.4 million adults in the U.S. have been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome (the most severe case of fatigue). However, the true fatigue epidemic affects 50 to 100 times more people.This episode's discussion gets right into the role of mitochondria in human energy. Ari's research (420 citations in “Eat for Energy”!] is clear. The cause of fatigue is mitochondrial dysfunction, he says. And the biggest factors that affect your mitochondria include:Circadian rhythm dysregulation and poor sleep Carrying too much body fat and too little muscle mass Poor gut and microbiome health Blood sugar dysregulation Nutritional toxicities and deficiencies Neurotransmitter and hormone imbalances So what can you do to increase your energy currency? A lot, as it turns out. When you understand factors like resilience, cell defense, nutrition and supplementation, you're on your way to better energy. In this conversation, you'll learn:what's causing the dysfunction in your mitochondria and how you can repair these critical energy cells. strategies that will double your energy levels. 7 top supplements (and more) that help get your mitochondria back on the energy track. Ari has been studying and teaching natural health science for more than 25 years. He went through his own battle with chronic fatigue that inspired his obsession with energy. For the past seven years, he's focused specifically on improving human energy. His education and work in this area touches on critical aspects of human health from nutrition to physical training, to light science, to psychology, and more. He created The Energy Blueprint science-based lifestyle programs that target brain energy and mitochondria. He also hosts The Energy Blueprint podcast that features world-wide experts on the subject of understanding fatigue and how to get more energy.
