Is your body running on broken engines?We often obsess over what we eat, but we rarely think about how our cells process that fuel. If your mitochondria (the engines of your cells) are dysfunctional, it doesn't matter how perfect your diet is—you will feel tired, you will recover slowly, and you will age faster.In this episode, we sit down with Brad Currier, a PhD in muscle physiology and scientist at Timeline, to discuss Urolithin A—the breakthrough molecule that acts as a "recycling program" for your cells. Brad reveals why natural food sources are virtually impossible to rely on (you'd need to drink 1.5 liters of juice daily), how this molecule compares to fasting for longevity, and the shocking data coming out of studies with Olympic athletes.In this episode, you will learn:The "Junkyard" Theory: Why mitochondrial dysfunction is the root cause of low energy and poor recovery.Mitophagy Explained: How to trigger the selective breakdown of "zombie" mitochondria to build fresh, healthy ones.The Pomegranate Reality Check: Why you can't eat your way to therapeutic levels of Urolithin A (and the sugar cost of trying).Fasting vs. MitoPure: The difference between "global" starvation (fasting) and "surgical" cellular repair.Olympic Secrets: How elite runners are using this specific protocol to lower perceived exertion and muscle damage.The Future of Longevity: How this impacts not just muscle, but skin, immune health, and cognitive function.Timeline Mitopure Gummies: GET 20% Off Now!

In Episode 175 of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Dr. A talks with neuroscientist and MitoQ Chief Science Officer Dr. Siobhan Mitchell about one of the most powerful — and overlooked — drivers of women's health after 40: mitochondrial function. She shares how her grandmother's Alzheimer's diagnosis inspired her career and why the latest science points to mitochondria, oxidative stress, and “inflammaging” as core players in memory, energy, and healthy aging.You'll learn how exercise, smart intervals, fasting, MCT oils, CoQ10, vitamin C, and mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants like MitoQ can help your cells produce cleaner energy, recover faster, and better protect your brain, heart, and muscles. Dr. Mitchell also breaks down what human studies actually show about MitoQ and other mitochondrial supports like PQQ, NAC, and NAD boosters.If you're a busy mom or midlife woman who wants steady energy, clearer thinking, and stronger training results without burning out your system, this conversation will give you a science-backed roadmap.Key TakeawaysMitochondria = powerhouses and “CEOs” of the cellOxidative stress & “inflammaging” drive faster agingBalance matters: not too much, not too little mitochondrial activityExercise (especially intervals) trains mitochondrial resilienceFasting & ketones trigger autophagy and longevity pathwaysMCTs (especially C8/C10) support ketones and brain functionCoQ10 is essential but poorly delivered into mitochondria via standard supplementsMitoQ = mitochondria-targeted CoQ10 derivative with human dataStudies: better power output, recovery, and less exercise-induced DNA damageVitamin C, magnesium, B12 often need supplement support with ageNAC, PQQ, NAD boosters, and urolithin A: promising but mixed dataNo magic bullets: stack smart supplements on top of fundamentalsMore About MitoQ and Dr. Siobhan MitchellWebsite: https://www.mitoq.com/Use code FITFAMILY at checkout for 10% off your purchaseFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MitoQ/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mitoq/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/MitoQHealthX: https://twitter.com/Mito_QTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mitoqPodcast: Cell Me About It https://open.spotify.com/show/2Bbc0Oi5ypbui2voVpnCxf?si=40f849b961d041ffDr. Siobhan Mitchell's Email: smitchell@mitoq.comBiographical Information on Dr. Siobhan MitchellDr. Siobhan Mitchell, PhD is the chief scientific officer of MitoQ with over 25 years of research experience in how nutrition impacts brain aging, metabolic health, and longevity.

Dr. Glen Jeffery, PhD, is a professor of neuroscience at University College London and a leading expert on how different colors (wavelengths) of light impact cellular, organ and overall health. He explains that long-wavelength light (red, near-infrared and infrared) can enter the body and brain to enhance mitochondrial function and thereby improve metabolism, eyesight, blood glucose regulation, mood, hormones and more. We also discuss how short-wavelength light from LED bulbs can impair mitochondrial health and why balanced, full-spectrum light is essential for health. Dr. Jeffery shares simple yet powerful ways to use natural and artificial light sources to enhance your metabolic function, eyesight and longevity.

Parenting a child who goes from calm to chaos in seconds can feel exhausting. You try everything—deep breaths, gentle words, even walking away—and still, the meltdowns come. You're not alone.When kids struggle with big emotions, there's often a hidden root cause inside the body—and minerals play a much bigger role than most parents realize.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Aaron Hartman to unpack the powerful connection between minerals, mitochondria, and meltdowns—and how nutrition, lifestyle, and nervous system regulation can help your child regain balance and calm.Why does my child melt down when they're “just tired or hungry”?When your child seems to unravel at the smallest thing, it's not bad behavior—it's biology. Mineral imbalances directly affect how their nervous system fires.Low magnesium or zinc deficiency can make the brain more reactive to stress.When blood sugar drops from skipping meals or eating too many processed foods, the body burns through nutrients fast—leading to irritability, anxiety, or panic attacks.A deficient diet full of additives and low in whole foods affects serotonin, dopamine, and other key neurotransmitters.When we calm the brain first and nourish the body, meltdowns start to fade.Takeaway: A balanced diet rich in real food, protein, and calming minerals helps stabilize your child's emotions and energy.Need quick relief while you work on those root causes? Try Quick Calm—my proven method to calm the brain fast so you and your child can reset and start fresh.Could my child's mood swings be linked to mineral deficiencies?Absolutely. Research continues to show how essential minerals affect mental well-being and brain function.Here's what parents need to know:Zinc deficiency is linked with attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD), depression, and poor immune function.Magnesium supports relaxation and sleep by calming overactive neurons.B vitamins and vitamin D play a critical role in serotonin production—affecting mood and focus.Too much copper or exposure to heavy metals can worsen anxiety, aggression, and brain fog.HTMA testing (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) can reveal these hidden imbalances, helping you target the root cause instead of chasing symptoms.

This week I explore the revolutionary Rice Diet study conducted by Walter Kempner in 1958, which documented the reversal of diabetes and diabetic blindness using a simple diet of white rice, fruit, and sugar. It challenges conventional medical beliefs and highlights the significance of Kempner's findings in the context of diabetes treatment.Kempner W, Peschel RL, Schlayer C.

The Sympathetic Spiral of Doom drains your mitochondria. Here's how to rebuild energy from within.

Every so often, I have a conversation that stays with me long after the recording ends — not because it's dramatic, but because it quietly shifts how I understand the body and the brain. This episode is one of those conversations.Today on the Kick Sugar Coach Podcast, I'm talking with Dallin Hardy, a biochemist from Hardy Nutritionals, about something most of us were never taught: how deeply the brain and our mitochondria depend on micronutrients to function well, and what happens when those nutrients get depleted. (And best of all, how 60 peer-reviewed studies show we CAN replenish them. This interview will tell you how.)Dallin has a gift for translating complex biochemistry into everyday language. He shares the story behind their well-known formula, Daily Essential Nutrients, why researchers keep studying it, and what he sees every day working with people who are rebuilding their mental health from the inside out.Episode HighlightsWhat happens to energy (ATP) production when micronutrients are lowHow to dramatically improve mitochondrial function Why sugar depletes the body of needed nutrients and how to replenish themHow micronutrients can improve ADHD, depression, bipolar disorder, stress, and sleepThe unexpected findings in pregnancy and infant developmentIf you've ever felt like your energy, focus, or emotional resilience wasn't matching the effort you're putting into your health… this episode offers a different way to look at it. Sometimes the body isn't malfunctioning. It's just missing what it needs. I think one graphic in particular, where Dallin details all the micronutrients needed to produce clean, efficient energy in our cells, will take your breath away. It did mine.*Click here to watch the slideshttps://youtu.be/5547H6I4WYQ?si=ojtSyd4JHBOcx6dDEnjoyed this episode?

I receive a lot of health questions about how to remedy various debilitating conditions. One of the more concerning questions I receive frequently is regarding kidney failure. Why is there an epidemic of people with failing kidney function? It comes down to mitochondria dysfunction. Instead of focusing in one one study like most health educators do, my goal with these short shows is to paint broad strokes and cover the entire subject from a birds eye view all the way down to the mitochondrial level. Most importantly, as I cover various health conditions in future episodes, I will focus very heavily on the solutions, citing research and mechanisms to back up each of the proposed supplements or protocols. In the case of the kidneys, it comes down to one protein: mitochondrial transcription factor A, or TFAM. When that critical protein inside mitochondria in your kidneys becomes deficient, energy production falls and tissue function decreases, hence, kidney failure. It always comes back to mitochondria. My website: www.matt-blackburn.com Mitolife products: www.mitolife.co Music by George Henner: https://georgehenner.bandcamp.com Two studies I referenced: Mitochondrial Energetics in the Kidneys https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5965678/#:~:text=The%20kidney%20is%20one%20of,pressure%20in%20the%20glomeruli5.

CRISPR-based gene editing has revolutionized modern biology, but these tools are unable to access the DNA that resides inside mitochondria. Researchers are eager to access and edit this DNA to understand more about the energy production and the mutations that can cause incurable mitochondrial diseases.Because CRISPR can't help with these problems, researchers have been looking for other ways to precisely edit the mitochrondrial genome. And the past few years have brought some success — if researchers can make editing safe and accurate enough, it could eventually be used to treat, and even cure, these genetic conditions.This is an audio version of our Feature: Faulty mitochondria cause deadly diseases — fixing them is about to get a lot easier Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textIntegration of brain metabolism with neural signaling, highlighting how core metabolites regulate energy use and protect neurons.Topics Discussed:Brain energy efficiency: Brains are much more energy-efficient than computers for similar processing, relying on adaptive metabolic strategies evolved under energy scarcity.Metabolism vs. information processing: Core metabolites like glutamate bridge basic cellular energy production and neural signaling.Lactate as a signal: Produced during exercise, lactate diffuses from muscles to brain, modulating neuronal excitability and providing neuroprotection.BHB in ketosis: During fasting or ketogenic diets, beta-hydroxybutyrate displaces glucose as fuel, enhances antioxidant defenses, and activates protective potassium channels in neurons.Adenosine and sleep: Accumulates from ATP breakdown during wakefulness, triggering sleep and locally inhibiting overactive neural networks for energy conservation.Glial cells' role: Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes handle sophisticated metabolism, release signaling molecules like lactate, and modulate synapses, and influence diseases like Alzheimer's.Practical Takeaways:Regular exercise elevates lactate, which signals the brain to adapt metabolism and may enhance neuroprotection against stress.Intermittent fasting or ketogenic diets can induce ketosis with BHB, potentially boosting brain antioxidant defenses and preconditioning against metabolic stress.Prioritizing sleep helps clear adenosine buildup, restoring energy balance and supporting long-term neural health.About the guest: Dr. Luis Felipe Barros, MD, PhD is a Chilean neurobiologist and professor at the Universidad de Valparaíso, where he leads a lab studying brain metabolism from glucose transport to mitochondrial function.Related Episode:M&M 255 | Unlocking Energy: How Nutrition & Drugs Impact Your Mitochondria | Chris Masterjohn*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Good morning, everyone! In this powerful and eye-opening episode, David DeHaas from Living Waters Wellness Center—where miracles begin by healing from within—dives deep into one of the most vital yet misunderstood parts of the human body: the mitochondria. These tiny powerhouses inside every cell are what keep your heart pumping, brain thinking, and body thriving. But when your mitochondria become damaged or sluggish due to toxins, constipation, and inflammation, your energy plummets, and disease begins to take hold.Today's show is all about understanding how your mitochondria and inflammation are connected—and how you can take control of your body's natural healing power starting from the inside out.Most people focus on symptoms, but David reveals that true healing begins at the mitochondrial level—inside the tiny power plants of your cells. When your colon and small intestine are congested, nutrients can't reach your cells, toxins can't escape, and your mitochondria lose the energy to keep you healthy. This leads to oxidative stress, free radical damage, and inflammation that impact your brain, heart, and immune system.Through colon hydrotherapy, you can clear out toxins, restore nutrient flow, and recharge your mitochondria—igniting natural healing from within.David also explains:How glucose becomes ATP, your body's energy fuelHow antioxidants like Vitamins C & E fight aging and oxidative stressWhy mitochondrial health drives brain clarity, heart function, and vitalityAnd how cleansing and nutrition restore your body's natural energyIt's not just about feeling better—it's about healing your mitochondria and eliminating inflammation so your body can thrive again.If you're tired, inflamed, or feeling drained, it's time to start healing at the cellular level. When you clean the inside, your cells—and your life—begin to transform.Watch The Four Natural Laws of Healing video and learn more at LivingWatersCleanse.comor call (208) 378-9911 to start your natural healing journey today.Heal your cells, restore Support the show Ready for your healing journey?Visit our website: www.LivingWatersCleanse.com Or give us a call at: (208) 378-9911Stem Cell Activation Patches:www.StemCellPatch.netGet your Supplements and Natural Body Products Here:www.livingwaterscleanse.com/supplementsQI-Shield EMF Devices:Protect your whole home or office with a touric shield from EMF's. 1.

How does the diagnosis affect the disease?In this 2-part episode, Dr. Lara Varden interviews Dr. Jacob Liberman. Dr. Jacob Israel Liberman is a pioneer in the fields of light, vision and consciousness, and the author of Luminous Life: How The Science Of Light Unlocks The Art Of Living, Light: Medicine Of The Future, Take Off Your Glasses And See, and Wisdom From An Empty Mind. Originally trained as an optometrist and vision scientist, his life changed in 1976 after the miraculous healing of his own eyesight, leading him to a deeper understanding of light and the science of life. Having helped countless individuals recover their eyesight, he began to understand the words of Jonathan Swift, “Real vision is the ability to see the invisible.”Last week, Dr. Liberman explained how consciousness often affects our outlook and way of life whether or not we allow the diagnosis to define us or to allow us to figure out our next steps. He focused on telling stories of his experiences training optometrists about light and vision, and how it has transformed his life for the better.This week we learn of how light and different hues of color affect our health. This involves not just the presence of light but as well as complete darkness. Dr. Liberman and Dr. Lara also dive into how the perception of light even to those who don't have sight matters as it affects more than just vision such as our biological clock, how different parts of our body respond, and If you wish to learn more from Dr. Jacob Liberman, you may do so through the following channels:Website: https://www.jacobliberman.org______________________________________________________Keep yourself up to date on The DNA Talks Podcast!

The fascinating intersections of circadian biology, quantum health, and women's wellness really come alive as I sit down with Neurosurgeon-turned-Quantum-Biologist Dr. Jack Kruse. You'll hear how simple things, like the light you see first thing in the morning, quietly shape your hormones, energy, and even how you age. Dr. Jack's decades of surgical and biophysical knowledge make these concepts surprisingly practical for everyday health. By the end, you may find yourself rethinking your daily routines in the best way.   Together, we get into why AM sunlight can make such a big difference for women going through hormonal changes, especially around menopause. Dr. Jack breaks down big ideas like heteroplasmy in simple, eye-opening terms and shows how it plays into skin health, longevity, and mitochondrial function. You'll also hear why red light deserves a place in your wellness routine, and how blue light and non-native EMFs might be draining more than just your battery.   If you've ever struggled with weight changes, low energy, or hormonal shifts, you'll appreciate Dr. Jack's explanation of the leptin-melanocortin pathway and what it means for women at every age. His own 150-pound weight-loss story adds real heart to the science and shows how much can change when your environment starts working for you instead of against you.

We often think fitness is about pushing harder. More miles. More sweat. More effort.But what if the real secret to lifelong performance and metabolic health lies not in intensity, but in understanding the quiet signals your body sends every day?This week on Live Well Be Well, I'm joined by world renowned physiologist Dr. Iñigo San Millán, director of performance for UAE Team Emirates and one of the leading experts in mitochondrial health, endurance physiology, and chronic metabolic disease. Iñigo has spent decades studying elite athletes and everyday patients, and his work reveals a striking truth. The systems that help world champions thrive are the same systems that protect us from illness, fatigue, and burnout.We explore the science behind training zones, lactate, and metabolic flexibility, but also the human side of energy, longevity, and self trust. Because understanding your physiology is not only about performance. It is about reclaiming your capacity to feel strong, stable, and well in your own life.Here's What We Dive Into:- How mitochondria underpin long-term health and signal metabolic resilience.- Why Zone 2 training improves energy stability and protects against chronic disease.- What lactate truly reveals about your physiology beyond exercise performance.- How elite athletes teach us about metabolic dysfunction and adaptation.- Why nutrition shapes mitochondrial function and insulin sensitivity.- What drives burnout and fatigue at the cellular level and how to reverse it.- How to train smarter by listening to heart rate, breath, and internal cues.- Why most people are unintentionally overtraining or undertraining and how to find balance.Love,Sarah Ann

Send us a textMitochondrial fatty acid synthesis is a little-known but essential pathway that supports energy production and metabolic health.Summary: Dr. Sara Nowinski explains how mitochondria not only burn fuels to make ATP but also synthesize their own fatty acids inside the matrix; this conserved pathway produces lipoic acid (an essential enzyme cofactor) and longer-chain fats required for proper assembly of the electron transport chain, and disrupting it impairs respiration, glucose handling, and insulin sensitivity while enhancing it appears protective against obesity and heart injury.About the guest: Sara Nowinski, PhD is an assistant professor in the Department of Metabolism and Nutritional Programming at Van Andel Institute in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where since 2021 she has led a lab focused on mitochondrial biology and the mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis (mitoFAS) pathway.Topics Discussed:Basic mitochondrial energy production: food → pyruvate/fatty acids → acetyl-CoA → TCA cycle → electron transport chain → ATPMitochondrial fatty acid synthesis (mitoFAS): a bacterial-like pathway that builds fats on an acyl carrier protein inside the matrixLipoic acid: an 8-carbon fatty acid made only by mitoFAS, covalently attached to key enzymes (e.g., pyruvate dehydrogenase); cannot be rescued by supplements for cofactor useLonger mitoFAS products (14–16 carbons) stabilize electron transport chain assembly factors, explaining why pathway loss collapses respiration even when lipoic acid is intactKnocking out mitoFAS causes embryonic lethality, insulin resistance, poor glucose homeostasis, and a rare neurodegenerative disorder (MEPAN syndrome)Overexpressing the mitochondrial acyl carrier protein protects mice from diet-induced obesity, insulin resistance, and cardiac injuryMuscle cell differentiation fails without mitoFAS, hinting at a role in tissue development and repairPractical Takeaways:Supplemental lipoic acid can act as an antioxidant but cannot replace the lipoic acid your mitochondria must make themselves for enzyme function.Severe impairment of mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis is linked to insulin resistance and metabolic disruption, suggesting mitochondrial health (beyond just biogenesis) matters for glucose control.Lifestyle or future therapies that boost overall mitochondrial function (e.g., exercise via PGC-1α) may indirectly support tSupport the showAffiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared dives deep into one of the most fascinating frontiers in functional nutrition—brain energy. He unpacks how ATP fuels your mind, why BDNF acts like “fertilizer for neurons,” and how lifestyle stressors, toxins, and poor sleep can dim your mental lightbulb. From there, he explores the natural tools that can reignite focus, memory, and long-term cognitive vitality. You'll hear how powerhouse nutrients can support mitochondrial performance, boost brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and promote sharper thinking—without the crash of caffeine or pharmaceuticals. Jared wraps up with three practical, results-driven protocols: one for focus and ADHD support, one for immediate memory and cognition, and one for long-term prevention of cognitive decline. Each stack can be customized to fit your individual goals so you can think clearer, focus longer, and age smarter—naturally.Brain Boosting Protocol CollectionShop the collection!

Together we peel back the layers of fertility burnout and talk about why women who “do everything right” are often the most exhausted, frustrated, and still not pregnant. Spoiler: it's not your age, it's your cellular energy. We dive into the reality that fertility clinics rarely talk about—how rushing into IVF or IUI without repairing the foundation of your health can actually set you back. Kristen shares how fatigue, stress, and even emotional disconnection play a far bigger role than the latest supplement on TikTok. It's about building resilience, coherence, and a sustainable rhythm that supports both your body and your future baby. And yes, we go there: the illusion of control, the obsession with apps and trackers, and the collective conditioning that tells women to “do more” instead of “be more present.” This episode is your permission slip to slow down, listen deeply, and start aligning your energy with your body's innate wisdom. Because fertility isn't a race, it's a frequency shift. “The only way to get a baby out is to surrender. The same goes for calling one in.” Timestamps 00:00 – Why your frequency matters more than your protocol 06:10 – Listening to your body instead of influencers 09:00 – The illusion of control and the myth of the fertility cliff 12:22 – How surrender prepares you for both conception and motherhood 18:12 – Generational burnout, epigenetics, and fertility 23:45 – Redefining success and rewriting the modern woman's blueprint “Surrender isn't giving up, it's getting out of your own way so your body can do what it was designed to do.” Full Transcript Over on the Blog: The Hidden Cost of Fertility Burnout (and Why Surrender Is Your New Superpower) with Kristen Karchmer https://www.findingfertility.co/blog/the-hidden-cost-of-fertility-burnout-and-why-surrender-is-your-new-superpower-with-kristen-karchmer Let's Do This Together

Fatigue isn't just about feeling tired, but also your body's warning signal that something much deeper is out of balance.  In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Evan Hirsch, founder of the Energy MD Method, to uncover his proven four-step process for restoring energy, reversing long COVID, and resolving chronic fatigue for good. We discuss the Toxic Five: the underlying root causes that drain your vitality and how you can retrain your nervous system, open detox pathways, and naturally restore your mitochondria. Dr. Hirsch shares his personal five-year battle with exhaustion, what finally worked, and how thousands have reclaimed their energy using the same framework.    "Our bodies are always working for our best interest. You can't just replace mitochondria 'to high heaven' and expect results. You have to fix the underlying problem that's forcing them to shut down." ~ Dr. Evan Hirsch   In This Episode: - Dr. Evan's journey through chronic fatigue - An overview of long COVID and the propagation of spike proteins  - Long COVID vs chronic fatigue - Why some people get long COVID and others don't - The 4-step process to resolve chronic fatigue and long COVID - Success stories and the program timeline - Addressing sleep issues and promoting sleep optimization - Mitochondria damage and cell danger response - Stats on chronic fatigue syndrome - Challenges and shortcomings in medical testing   Products & Resources Mentioned: Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Just go to https://boncharge.com/myersdetox and your discount will be automatically applied at checkout!

Brand New episode! What if the missing link in your recovery isn't another supplement or stretch, but energy at the cellular level? We sit down with Dr. Zulia Frost—medical doctor, researcher, and co-founder of Recharge Health—to unpack how photobiomodulation, neuromodulation, and sound can help your body heal faster, perform better, and sleep deeper without side effects.Zulia's story is a powerful one: a devastating car accident, spinal fractures, and paralysis in her right leg. Conventional care saved her life, but it was targeted red and infrared light, gentle nerve stimulation, and a disciplined movement routine that rebuilt it. She explains in plain language how red and near-infrared wavelengths interact with mitochondria to increase ATP, release nitric oxide, and open blood flow—key steps that reduce pain, accelerate collagen repair, and restore function in joints and muscles. We compare sunlight to devices, discuss why consistent dosing matters, and reveal why wearable, skin-contact designs can deliver a reliable, high-intensity dose where you need it most.Get 10% off on FlexBeam at www.ChampionsMojo.com/FlexBeam and enter championsmojo as a coupon code at check out. Pain lives in the nervous system as much as in tissue, so we dive into neuromodulation for endorphin-driven relief and layer in sound therapy to shift brain waves toward calm. Zulia shares practical routines for athletes and everyday movers: short sessions for acute injuries, broader mapping for chronic issues, and pre-activation before training to boost output. She also offers simple, science-backed habits—consistent bedtimes, a few minutes of morning red light over the chest or abdomen, stretching before the day's load, and brief walks—that support circadian rhythm, gut health, and resilience over time. We close with clear guidance on facial use, eye safety, and how to personalize settings without guesswork.Whether you're rehabbing a shoulder, chasing a PR in the pool, or trying to sleep through the night, this conversation gives you a practical blueprint to turn light, sound, and routine into results.

Episode 4 — Starlight Inside, The Mitochondria EpisodeShow Notes / DescriptionIn today's episode, we zoom inward—into the living universe inside your cells—to explore how your mitochondria (your body's tiny suns) create the energy that fuels everything you do… and what happens when life burns too hot for too long.We talk about the ancient origins of your mitochondria, why their DNA is passed almost entirely through your maternal line, and how your mother's light and your father's genetic architecture work together to shape your vitality, resilience, and metabolism.Then we step into the “forest canopy” around your mitochondria—your antioxidant and repair systems—including superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione, and the master regulator NRF2.You'll learn:✨ Why stress, infections, chronic busyness, poor sleep, toxins, and nutritional deficiencies can overwhelm your antioxidant canopy✨ How your body actually protects you by dimming energy (instead of failing)✨ Why some people rebound quickly and others crash harder✨ And how daily nourishment rebuilds your internal ecosystemWe also meet “Anna,” a high-performing woman who didn't realize her exhaustion was a sign of her body protecting her—not betraying her.Her story will help you understand why energy depletion often isn't about willpower, but about biology.Finally, I'll share a deeply personal story from my herbal medicine training—a free clinic, a big pot of kitchari, and the moment I learned how profoundly simple nourishment can shift the nervous system.This episode is for you if:

Ready to boost your energy and future-proof your health? In this episode, I'm joined by expert neuroscientist Dr. Siobhan Mitchell, who breaks down why your mitochondria—the tiny powerhouses inside your cells—are the secret to healthy aging.  She explains how the perimenopause and menopause transition is not just hormonal, but a neuroendocrine shift that impacts your brain, mood, energy, AND vitality.  And even if you're doing your best to bring on lifestyle recommendations for optimizing mitochondrial health, odds are you still need more support than just that in midlife. So, that's where the supplement MitoQ comes into play.  As MitoQ's Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Mitchell reveals how this advanced antioxidant works deep inside your cells to enhance mitochondrial function, boosting mental clarity and long-term longevity.  Tune in and discover how to fuel your energy, elevate your mood, and embrace midlife feeling stronger than ever! Dr. Siobhan Mitchell  Siobhan Mitchell is the chief scientific officer of MitoQ. She completed her PhD at SUNY Albany and a post-doctoral fellowship on brain aging at the University of Washington. Siobhan has held roles at the three largest food companies in the world (Unilever, Nestle, and Pepsico), leading trials worldwide, which researched the effects of nutrition on cognitive decline, mood, and performance. She was also senior director at Noom, where she directed a team investigating chronic disease management, weight loss, and mental health digital programs using cognitive behavior therapy methods. IN THIS EPISODE Why mitochondria are a key contributing factor to aging  Preventing menopause symptoms in relation to brain changes  Research on estrogen levels in menopause for longevity  Lifestyle changes for enhanced cognitive functioning  The impact stress has on your mitochondrial function  How to notice if your mitochondria aren't working well  How MitoQ supplementation boosts cell vitality and longevity  Ways to measure your mitochondrial function  QUOTES“You get these overactive mitochondria that are also producing energy and oxidative stress at much higher levels, and these oxidative stress mechanisms can also bring on faster aging through inflammation and things like that.” “[MitoQ] is basically helping protect your mitochondria from excessive oxidative stress. It gets into the mitochondria better than any other supplement on the market because it was especially engineered to have this tag that allows it to get into the mitochondria up to [about] 90%.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://drmariza.com/book Use code DRMARIZA and get 15% off your order of Silverbiotics https://silverbiotics.com/discount/drmariza Use code: ENERGIZED for 10% off your order of MitoQ HERE! http://mitoq.com MitoQ on Instagram Siobhan on X  RELATED EPISODES  #688: Unlock Cellular Energy and Longevity with Urolithin A + Mitochondrial Optimization with  Jen Scheinman  #653: Mitochondria, Menopause & Metabolism: The Cellular Secret to More Energy After 40 with Dr. Felice Gersh #663: From Wired and Tired to Calm and Energized: The GABA-Mitochondria Connection + How to Fix It at the Cellular Level with Dr. Scott Sherr #623: Red Light Therapy for Upgrading Your Mitochondria, Cellular Energy, Skin and Brain Health with Jonathan Otto #690: The Perimenopause Revolution: Why midlife isn't the end — it's the beginning of your most energized, powerful, and vibrant self

I used to assume conception began at the first sign of pregnancy — until I learned about Trimester Zero. The 100-day window before conception may be the most powerful period in shaping your baby's lifelong health — and your own. In this minisode, I sit down with Vida Delrahim and Ronit Menashe, co-founders of WeNatal, to unpack what science now calls the pre-pregnancy trimester. We talk about how both women and men can dramatically influence fertility and genetics before conception through nutrition, lifestyle, and the health of one mighty organelle — the mitochondria.This episode features highlights from our full conversation, which premiered August 12th, 2025. Watch the full episode here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gztCFH603g About the guests:After experiencing miscarriages just a week apart, best friends Vida and Ronit were devastated — and confused. Both were healthy, both on prenatal vitamins, and yet doctors dismissed their losses as “random” or “age-related.” They partnered with leading experts, pored over research, and created a science-backed prenatal system for both women and men. What began as a personal mission has grown into WeNatal — a movement giving couples the knowledge, tools, and products to support conception, pregnancy, and the lifelong health of future generations. *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.

Here I explain the lymphatic system, a crucial bodily network for overall health and appearance. I explain how the lymphatic system works to remove cellular waste and fluid from your organs and combat infections. I provide science-based tools that support your lymphatic system for the sake of health and appearance, including: how to reduce fluid retention in your limbs, trunk or face, how to eliminate 'bags' under your eyes and brain fog, and how to improve cardiac health and longevity. Because your lymphatic system lacks a central pump, it needs the mechanical forces generated by specific types of bodily movement, breathing and pressure to circulate your lymph properly, and I explain how you can activate these. I also explain how to support optimal functioning of your glymphatic system, a brain- and spinal cord waste-clearing system active during sleep that is crucial for brain functioning and longevity, including to prevent dementia.
