The mitochondria are the powerhouse driving your body's energy and health, affecting your overall energy levels and your risk of chronic diseases. Unsurprisingly, environmental toxins can have a major impact on the health of your mitochondria. In this short episode, Laura Frontiero explains the mitochondria and how it impacts overall health through the production of ATP (a molecule that serves as the cells' primary energy source). The conversation sheds light on how environmental toxins affect mitochondrial health from early stages of life and the subsequent impact on chronic diseases and autoimmune disorders. She also shares insights on the importance of addressing mitochondrial dysfunction, drawing from her own experiences and research. Episode Notes ATP production is crucial for maintaining energy levels for bodily functions and understanding the consequences of mitochondrial decline on overall health. It is critical for sustaining not just physical energy for daily activities but it is also the invisible energy required for many vital internal processes. Environmental Toxins and The Mitochondria The impact of environmental toxicants on mitochondrial function highlights the importance of reducing exposure to toxins for overall health. Environmental factors can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction, which can contribute to the development of chronic diseases and autoimmune disorders. Reverse Chronic Diseases Addressing mitochondrial dysfunction is essential for reversing chronic diseases and promoting overall health. Learning how to improve mitochondrial function can lead to increased energy levels and improved health outcomes. Listen now and start regaining your energy and vitality!

Consuming wild algae can have a negative impact on your health. Just as algae can absorb toxins from your body, it will do the same in lakes and oceans. Despite efforts to find safe and healthy wild algae sources, the risk of consuming wild algae is still present, and it's important to be aware of the potential dangers and find healthier alternatives. In this episode, Dr. Catharine Arnston, the founder of Energy Bits and an expert in algae nutrition, delves into the importance of the cultivation of algae. If you're health-conscious and eager to learn about the dangers of bringing toxins into your body, this episode is a must-listen. Listen now and start choosing the right algae supplements today!

Today, I am honored to connect with Catharine Arnston, the Founder, CEO, and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits. I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet Catharine in person this past July at KetoCon in Austin. Much of her work focuses on optimizing mitochondrial function and recognizing that mitochondria are pivotal to our metabolism, longevity, brain and gut health, sleep, digestion, and almost everything else. In our conversation, we dive into what got Catharine passionate about algae. We speak about her transition from a corporate economic development role into a budding entrepreneur, the distinctions between micro and macroalgae, and the more than 100,000 studies that have been done- especially in Asia, that show algae are of the most alkaline and nutrient-dense foods available. We differentiate between spirulina and chlorella and explain their roles in our mitochondrial health. We also discuss how our stressful lifestyles impact our cellular health and talk about autophagy, red light therapy, immune function, and more. I hope you enjoy today's eye-opening discussion about the value of consuming microalgae daily. Stay tuned to find out what microalgae are and what they do to keep you healthy! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: How an issue with her sister's health resulted in Catharine becoming passionate about algae as a food source. Algae is a food, not a supplement. How do macroalgae differ from algae? Spirulina and chlorella are grown as fresh-water crops. So they contain no iodine. They also have no lectins or oxalates. Catharine explains why algae are some of the most nutrient-dense foods available. Why are algae critical for maintaining mitochondrial health? Consuming microalgae every day means you do not have to deteriorate as you age. What makes spirulina's absorption rate so high? The health benefits of consuming chlorella. Catherine explains how spirulina and chlorella differ and work together synergistically. How does chlorella differ from activated charcoal? What are the benefits of having chlorophyll in your body when exposed to red light? Catharine unpacks the immune-supportive aspects of spirulina and chlorella. Spirulina and chlorella are keto-friendly, can be used when fasting intermittently, and are safe for people with diabetes.

Send us a textIn today's episode, we explore the powerful benefits of spirulina and chlorella—two superfoods that boost energy, improve digestion, and alkalize your body, especially during pregnancy. Each tiny tablet is pure food with the nutritional equivalent of an entire plate of vegetables. Trisha noticed a significant difference in her energy level during her workouts once she started taking spirulina each morning. So we've invited Catharine Arnston, founder of EnergyBits, to explain why these nutrient-dense algae offer superior nutrition. Spirulina, packed with amino acids, delivers 99.9% bioavailable protein for clean, sustained energy. It's also rich in chlorophyll and phycocyanin, which support mitochondrial health and cellular protection. Chlorella, on the other hand, helps detoxify the body and relieve constipation—a common pregnancy discomfort—while replenishing essential nutrients.During pregnancy, spirulina supports fetal brain development with nutrients similar to breast milk, while chlorella provides immune support and gentle detoxification.

This episode covers:In this episode, we discuss the alkaline properties of algae, how algae can help maintain healthy cells, the importance of phytonutrients like chlorophyll for immune support, and so much more.Catharine Arnston started ENERGYbits® after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal. Catharine immediately sprung into action to help her sister research alkaline foods and in the process she discovered algae. When Catharine learned that algae was the most alkaline, plant-based, nutrient-dense food in the world and had been used for fifty years in Asia to improve health and longevity, she knew she had discovered something big (and yes, her sister fully recovered - thanks for asking).As Catharine dug into the science of algae, she learned it had 64% protein, 40 vitamins/minerals and was endorsed by the United Nations and NASA as the most nutrient dense food in the world. She also discovered there were 100,000 studies documenting its long list of benefits and it was the most sustainable, eco-friendly food crop in the world. And yet algae remained virtually unknown outside of Asia. How could this be possible? Catharine knew algae could be a game changer for our health, our children and our world if she could only convince people it wasn't weird. And so ENERGYbits® was born.Links mentioned during this episode:EnergyBits: Use discount code LYONS for 20% off at www.energybits.comLyons' Share Instagram: www.instagram.com/thelyonsshareJoin Megan's Newsletter: www.thelyonsshare.org/newsletter

On this episode of the Dr. Tyna Show, I am sitting down with Catharine Arnston, the Founder, CEO and Chief Scientific Officer of Energy Bits, makers behind the small but mighty algae tablets. My mentor was big into the health benefits of algae as a supplement, but I've never given it the attention that it deserves. Recently I was looking into it again as a food source, as I am not a huge fan of vegetables. I am transitioning out of a largely meat-based, carnivore diet and back into a more variety type diet now that my gut and immune symptoms are more under control, and algae seems like a perfect fit for this. As luck would have it, I was connected to Catharine and I couldn't wait to get her on the show and pick her brain. This was a fascinating conversation and I learned a lot, I know you will too.
