Fish Oil, Full-Spectrum Omega-3s, and Immunometabolism with Dr. Jeffrey Bland: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Big Bold Health, about fish oil and omega-3 science. Bland recounts becoming involved with commercial fish oil in 1980 while promoting MaxEPA amid the “fat is bad” era and discusses Greenland Inuit research showing high omega-3 blood levels and low heart disease. They contrast whole-food omega-3 intake with highly refined EPA/DHA products, highlighting additional constituents in minimally processed oils (vitamins A and D, astaxanthin) and precursor compounds related to specialized pro-resolving mediators. Bland describes Omega-3 Rejuvenate's Alaska line-caught sourcing and low-heat, chemical-free processing, and addresses concerns about mercury, microplastics, and vitamin A dosing. The conversation also covers PLMI's focus on immunometabolism, a CBC-derived SIRI marker, omega-3 insufficiency data from Fullscript, mitochondrial membrane support by DHA, and Bland's upcoming book, “The Nourished Gene.”

Like all animals, horses need energy to survive. That energy comes from fuel, which is why many health issues focus on what horses eat—grains, hay, supplements, and treats are all fuels we can see and buy. We often ignore how well a horse's cells turn fuel into energy, since we can't see the process or buy a quick fix. We tend to focus on taking action, usually by giving something, rather than changing how we keep them. But for hundreds of thousands of years, horses have adapted to survive on very little fuel when needed. In this podcast, we talk about why horses need their cell engines—the mitochondria, or MT—to stay flexible in how they use different fuels. Today, horses often get the same type of fuel all the time, which can cause their MT to get stuck. Just like a car engine that loses power, adding more fuel or supplements won't restore full power if the engine itself isn't working right.

Send us Fan MailHeather and Vanessa interview physicist and homeopath, Judyann McNamara, DHom, CCH, ND, ex-quantum physicist/biologist researcher, and homeopath-founder of the MICH Academy for Holism and Classical Homeopathy. Fascinated by life and living processes, consciousness and spirituality, but disappointed with the incomplete answers biology and medicine provided, Judyann sought to understand the energetic dimension emerging from consciousness that underlies our biology. As neither biophysics nor quantum biology were recognized disciplines in 1976, Judyann did both as separate disciplines and continued in physics research. In 1980 she witnessed the traces left on detectors by biophotons emitted by living cells. This led to studying and being qualified in subtle energy fields, Reiki, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Chinese Medicine, Homeopathy, Naturopathy and Qigong.Holism, the metaphysical container for Quantum Biology provided the container for all the practices.  Recognizing how essential the paradigm shift from mechanism to holism is for the healing of humanity, she founded the International Association of Holistic Professionals.  The IAHP's Friday morning experiential workshops explored healing presence and our challenging cases through the process of Dialog (a la David Bohm) and inquiry. The successes of the cases dialogued, and those of her clinical practice inspired a group of therapists to want to share and teach how to naturally align with Holism as the Force of creation and evolution,  with homeopathy as its central therapy in 2006. For the last 20 years, the MICH Academy for Holism and Classical Homeopathy has changed the lives of thousands of people through its the international 4 year fully accredited apprenticeship practitioner program based on one on one mentorships through live casetaking practice and continues to grow stronger. Judyann continues to keep a toe in research by collaborating with Drs Martin Picard and Nirosha Murugan. Martin and Judyann developed the ground-breaking Energy Resistance Principle during our dialog sessions last year.  Picard's upcoming book Energy has been designed to help readers make the important paradigm shift from the chemical-mechanical model of health to one that is based on Energy and the human experience. Judyann describes mitochondria as quantum organelles operating at the boundary between the material and immaterial—connecting us to the quantum field while transforming captured light into energy. We explore why understanding health may require us to move beyond a purely mechanistic view of the body and toward a truly holistic one.We dive into:✨ Why mitochondria may be understood as a bridge between the material and immaterial✨ The connection between mitochondria, consciousness, and quantum fields✨ How homeopathic remedies communicate information through energetic signatures✨ Why the experience of a symptom may be more important than simply naming the symptom✨ How the default mode network, overthinking, anxiety, and living in our stories can consume enormous amounts of energy✨ Why presence, nature, connection, and heart intelligence may support mitochondrial health✨ Disease as a call toward greater wholeness✨ Moving beyond dualistic thinking and learning to hold opposing experiences as interconnected polarities✨ Why some people become stuck in victim/perpetrator narratives and how shifting perspective requires energy✨ The idea of experiencing ourselves as events rather than objects or nouns✨ How different homeopathic modalities—from remedies and complexes to flower essences and cell salts—can work across different energetic levels✨ Sensitivity, mitochondrial information processing, and why some people respond so strongly to both disease and remedies✨ Potency, information, entropy, and what happens when too much information is introduced at once✨ And how developing greater awareness of our body's signals can help us become active participants in our own healingOne of our favorite themes from this conversation is the idea that suffering itself can be understood as a longing for wholeness—and that healing may involve moving beyond the belief that we are separate from ourselves, each other, nature, and the greater whole.This is a deep conversation that bridges homeopathy, quantum biology, consciousness, and the human experience in a really fascinating way.Connect with Judyann McNamara & MICH:www.michmontreal.com/quantum-health-connectionhttps://webinars.michmontreal.com/Free E-trainingFree conferences and eventshttps://www.facebook.com/michmontreal/https://www.instagram.com/michmontreal/https://www.linkedin.com/school/montreal-institute-of-classical-homeopathy/Support the showFind Heather:Book with HeatherHeather's Free Product Guide with Discount CodesHeather's Instagram Find Vanessa:Vanessa's Instagram Vanessa's Website Free Product Guide with Discount CodesFree Homeopathy at Home Guide Disclaimer: All interviews shared on The Quantum Health Connection Podcast are strictly for educational and entertainment purposes.

What if the next step in your health journey isn't another complicated protocol, but understanding how your body responds to light, energy, and the right environment? Red light therapy and pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF) have become increasingly popular in conversations around longevity and regenerative health. But how do these technologies actually work, and what should you look for when evaluating them? In this episode, Ben Azadi sits down with filmmaker and researcher Jonathan Otto to explore the ideas and research surrounding red light, PEMF, mitochondria, ATP, inflammation, cellular signaling, and the body's regenerative processes. Jonathan shares how he evaluates different devices, including the measurements and testing methods he uses to better understand what a device is actually producing. The conversation also explores different wavelengths and frequencies, how these technologies may be combined, and why foundational health habits still matter alongside emerging technologies. Ben and Jonathan also discuss the potential applications of red light and PEMF in areas such as eyesight, mitochondrial function, circulation, and recovery, while exploring a broader question: how much regenerative potential does the human body already have?

What if one of the biggest keys to energy, brain function and healthy aging is happening inside the microscopic powerhouses of your cells? Patty Greer and C60 Evo founder Chris Burres return to Unleashing Intuition Secrets with Michael Jaco for a fascinating conversation about mitochondrial function, longevity and the cellular processes associated with some of the most feared diseases of aging. Chris breaks down the science connecting mitochondrial dysfunction with heart disease, cancer, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's and dementia—and explains why supporting healthy mitochondrial function has become such an important area of research. The conversation then turns to ESS60, C60 Evo's proprietary high-purity form of carbon 60. Its distinctive soccer-ball-shaped molecular structure has made C60 an area of scientific interest for decades, particularly for its antioxidant properties and interactions with free radicals. Chris explains why C60 Evo combines ESS60 with carefully selected extra virgin olive oil, creating the lipid environment needed for stability and consistency—and why the quality and purity of that olive oil matters. Patty brings the human side of the conversation, sharing personal experiences and testimonials from people who use C60 Evo, including her 97-year-old mother. Michael also shares why C60 Evo has become part of his own wellness routine. And then there's the longevity research that started so much of the fascination with C60: the panel discusses the famous Wistar rat study, in which rats receiving C60 dissolved in olive oil lived substantially longer than comparison groups. The speakers discuss what that research could mean while emphasizing that animal results do not establish the same lifespan effect in humans. Mitochondria. Cellular energy. Antioxidants. Brain function. Longevity. This conversation gets to the cellular level of aging—and explores why Chris and Patty believe supporting the mitochondria may be one of the most important pieces of the wellness puzzle.

We take the keys away from older drivers—why not older doctors? Nearly 3 in 4 Americans battling this health problem—fatigue! What super-agers over 100 have in common—a hyper-vigilant immune system guarding against cancers and infections. How does “anabolic resistance” contribute to frailty—and what to do about it? Recurrent bouts of “burning sensations” on the face—diagnosis please?

Blue light at night might be the real reason you cannot fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling rested. And it has almost nothing to do with blue light being "bad."Here is the part most people miss: blue light is not the enemy. During the day it is a nutrient your body actually needs. The problem is blue light at the wrong time, the "second sun" pouring out of your phone, your TV, and the LEDs overhead long after the real sun has set. Your brain reads that glow as midday, at midnight.In this episode, light expert Roudy of VivaRays joins Justin Roethlingshoefer to break down what that late-night light is quietly doing to your sleep, your hormones, and the mitochondria that power every cell you have. If you have ever raided the fridge at 9pm, wondered why you wake up tired after a full eight hours, or felt wired right when you should be winding down, this conversation reframes all of it.Justin and Roudy make the case that this was never a willpower problem. It is a light problem. Get the right light at the right time and your body remembers a rhythm it has always known. As Justin puts it, God created light and He created darkness, and He called the rhythm between them very good. Somewhere along the way we stopped living inside it.What you'll learn: ☀️ Why blue light during the day is essential, and why blocking it around the clock backfires

Sleep, Growth Hormone, and Autophagy: How Rest, Diet, and Fasting Support Metabolic Health and Longevity: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses how deep, early non-REM sleep boosts growth hormone for muscle, bone, fat burning, and metabolic health, and reviews a Cell study in which UC Berkeley researchers mapped hypothalamic circuits and feedback through the locus coeruleus showing a tight balance between sleep, growth hormone release, and wakefulness, with implications for metabolic disease and neurodegeneration. She connects poor sleep to higher blood sugar, insulin, and cortisol, which can suppress growth hormone, and advises avoiding sweet post-workout foods (e.g., smoothies, bananas, fruit yogurt) that stimulate insulin and blunt growth hormone, recommending protein and fat instead. She then explains autophagy and mitophagy as cellular cleanup processes linked to longevity, noting autophagy peaks after 12 hours of fasting, highlighting roles in mitochondrial quality control, immunity, and neurodegenerative disease, and mentions interventions such as fasting, exercise, ketogenic diets, and investigational inducers like rapamycin and urolithin A.

Our brains run on infrared light. Mitochondria in the brain absorb red and near-infrared light and use it to boost cognition and energy. And mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and depression.John Mitrofanis has spent 20 years on the question: If infrared light restores the mitochondria, can it save the brain cells that die in Parkinson's?John Mitrofanis is a neuroanatomist and Scientific Director of Fonds Clinatec in Grenoble, France, the research center founded by Alim-Louis Benabid, the father of deep brain stimulation. He is also an honorary Professor at University College London's Institute of Ophthalmology, and was Professor of Anatomy at the University of Sydney for over a decade.

Catharine Arnston on Spirulina, Chlorella, Mitochondria, Detox, Brain Energy, and Longevity Visit https://energybits.com/ and use code HUMANUPGRADE for 20% off. Could one of the oldest foods on Earth also be one of the most overlooked tools for mitochondrial health, brain function, detoxification, and longevity? Host Dave Asprey sits down with Catharine Arnston, founder of ENERGYbits and author of Love Your Health to Bits with Algae, to explore the biology of spirulina and chlorella and why these microscopic organisms have been studied for decades as unusually nutrient-dense foods. Catharine explains the major differences between spirulina and chlorella, from how they are grown and processed to how she uses them for completely different purposes. Spirulina contains compounds including phycocyanin and superoxide dismutase that Catharine believes can support mitochondrial function, antioxidant defenses, cellular energy, and brain health, while chlorella is used primarily for binding and removing unwanted compounds such as heavy metals. They also discuss why water quality, sourcing, drying temperature, and processing can dramatically change the final product. The conversation goes deep into mitochondrial biology, including the electron transport chain, ATP production, oxidative stress, free radicals, cytochrome c, superoxide dismutase, and the blue pigment phycocyanin. Dave connects these mechanisms to his own experience rebuilding mitochondrial function and explains why increasing cellular energy without adequate antioxidant defenses may create problems, particularly for people experimenting with advanced longevity interventions such as mitochondrial peptides. Dave and Catharine also explore methylene blue, psychedelics, exercise, brain aging, environmental toxins, nutrient density, food quality, algae farming, sustainable agriculture, and why maintaining mitochondrial function may become increasingly important with age. Catharine, who turns 70 shortly after the recording, also shares the philosophy behind her first book and her belief that aging does not have to mean accepting declining energy and cognitive function. This is essential listening for anyone interested in mitochondria, spirulina, chlorella, cellular energy, brain health, detoxification, oxidative stress, longevity, biohacking, nutrient density, methylene blue, peptides, and maintaining performance as you age. You'll Learn: Why spirulina and chlorella work differently in the body How spirulina may support mitochondrial energy and antioxidant defenses Why chlorella is commonly used for heavy metal and toxin binding What phycocyanin and superoxide dismutase do inside cells How oxidative stress can disrupt mitochondrial energy production Why Dave cautions against pushing mitochondrial output without adequate cellular protection How algae may support brain health, longevity, and performance as you age Dave Asprey is 4x NY Times Bestselling Author, Longevity Expert and Creator of the Biohacking Movement.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr, Jodi Duval, and Dr. Allen Bookatz explore what happens inside the cell when the body perceives stress or danger. The discussion focuses on Dr. Robert Naviaux's Cell Danger Response and how mitochondria can alter energy production and signaling in response to perceived threats. The team examines why fatigue, brain fog, inflammation, and exercise intolerance can occur even when standard laboratory testing appears normal, and how the different phases of the cellular response are meant to move from defense through repair and recovery. Join us as we delve into: Stress at the Cellular Level: How mitochondria and cells respond when they perceive danger from infection, toxins, injury, environmental exposures, or psychological stress. Why Normal Labs May Not Explain Fatigue: Why standard testing may not capture changes in cellular signaling, mitochondrial output, or a cell's metabolic state. The Three Phases of the Cell Danger Response: How CDR1 involves inflammatory defense, CDR2 involves proliferation and rebuilding, and CDR3 involves differentiation and recovery. Stress, Mitochondria and Energy: Why cells may reduce energy output while continuing to interpret their environment as unsafe. Hormesis and Stress Dosing: Why exercise, temperature exposure, and other acute stressors may be useful when properly dosed, while excessive stress may add to the existing burden. Mitochondrial Nutrient Support: The role discussed for CoQ10, PQQ, magnesium, and NAD+ precursors in supporting the metabolic machinery during the transition through the CDR phases. Parasympathetic Safety Signaling: How extended-exhale breathing, HRV biofeedback, vagal tone work, and other approaches are discussed as ways to reduce chronic sympathetic input. The Limits of the Framework: Why deliberately adding stress to an already overloaded system may be counterproductive when the dose is not appropriate. Disease Management vs. Health Optimization: Why the HOMeHOPe approach looks not only at the trigger but also at the conditions the cell may need to complete its response. This episode is for you if: You experience fatigue, brain fog, or exercise intolerance despite relatively normal standard laboratory results. You want to understand the Cell Danger Response and its proposed role in cellular stress. You are interested in mitochondrial function, cellular energy, inflammation, and purinergic signaling. You want to understand why more exercise, stimulation, or stress is not always the right answer. You are interested in hormesis, autonomic regulation, gut health, circadian biology, and metabolomic testing. You want to understand how Health Optimization Medicine approaches cellular stress and recovery.

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers sits down with Dr. Sara Pugh, who holds a PhD in molecular mechanisms and was the first board-certified quantum biologist, for a conversation about the health input almost nobody is optimizing: light. Quantum biology, as she explains it, is simply looking at health through light, water, and magnetism, with a heavy focus on the mitochondria and the electrons that carry our life force.   You will learn why the specific blend of red, blue, and violet light at sunrise sets your body clocks and switches on hormonal cascades in the pituitary gland, why glass blocks roughly half the red light and all of the grounding benefit, how UVA builds the serotonin you will convert to melatonin later, and when UVB is actually available to make vitamin D from cholesterol. Dr. Pugh and Dr. Jockers also dig into the sunscreen and sunglasses debate, the dietary strategies that build real sun tolerance, and why DHA is a quantum molecule that can turn light into electricity and back again.   From there the conversation turns to Dr. Pugh's nine-day water fast, why she ended it a day early when her leptin came back at 0.7, what refeeding after an extended fast actually requires, and how sauna, cold plunges, and other hormetic stressors build resilience when the dose is right.   In This Episode:  00:00 Flying and Clot Risk 02:38 Meet Dr Sara Pugh 03:27 Quantum Biology Explained 04:49 Why She Got Into It 06:34 Sunrise and Body Clocks 08:29 Sunrise Indoors vs Outdoors 09:57 Morning Ritual and Awe 13:01 Sunset and Sleep Signals 15:07 Evening Light Hygiene Tips 17:24 UVA UVB and Vitamin D 20:44 Sunscreen and Sunglasses Debate 25:15 Dietary Sun Protection 26:38 Omega 3 DHA and EZ Water 29:54 Airplanes Dehydration and Flow 31:42 Structured Water and Fresh Fruit 34:46 Seasonal Eating and Summer Sun 35:22 Muscadines and Gut Fuel 36:23 Fasting Boosts Akkermansia 36:47 Nine Day Fast Experiment 39:30 Low Leptin Explained 44:02 Symptoms and Lab Testing 46:15 Refeeding After Long Fasts 51:30 Sauna for Autophagy 55:37 Cold Face Plunge Benefits 58:45 Hormesis and Cortisol Balance 01:01:37 Carbs Keto and Mitochondria 01:03:52 Wrap Up and Takeaways   Turmeric is one of the most potent natural ways to calm inflammation, shutting down the NF-κB and STAT3 pathways behind so many chronic issues.

The 7 Layers of Healing: A Roadmap From Chronic Illness to Better HealthGet some help! https://drhughwegwerth.com/Why do some people stay sick even after trying supplements, medications, diets, and different treatments?In this episode, Dr. Hugh Wegwerth shares the 7-layer system he uses to help people better understand chronic illness and what may be getting in the way of healing.After decades of working with difficult chronic health problems, Dr. Hugh has found that healing often starts with the basics.Instead of chasing symptoms, this approach looks at the body one layer at a time.The 7 Layers Include:Layer 1: The FoundationLearn why blood pressure, blood sugar, and healthy oxygen delivery may be some of the first things to check.Layer 2: Food and ProteinYour body needs enough food and protein to rebuild damaged tissue and make energy.Layer 3: Home Physical MedicineLearn about tools that may support blood sugar, sleep, nervous system function, circulation, and recovery.Layer 4: Cell MembranesEvery cell has a protective membrane. Healthy fats and nutrients help support these important structures.Layer 5: Mitochondria and EnergyMitochondria help your cells make energy. When energy production is poor, healing can become harder.Layer 6: Gut HealthGut problems can affect digestion, inflammation, nutrient absorption, the nervous system, and overall health.Layer 7: Core NutrientsYour body needs the right nutrients to repair tissue, make energy, and function properly.In this episode, you will also learn:Why unstable blood sugar may slow recoveryWhy eating enough protein mattersWhy low blood pressure may affect nutrient deliveryWhy sleep is so important for healingHow the nervous system and gut work togetherWhy mitochondria are important for energyWhy chronic illness often needs more than just supplementsHow a step-by-step plan may make recovery easier to understandThe main message is simple:Healing is not usually about finding one magic supplement or treatment.It is about finding the weak areas in your body and working through them in the right order.If you have been dealing with chronic fatigue, brain fog, fibromyalgia, autoimmune problems, gut problems, blood sugar problems, dysautonomia, antibiotic-related health problems, or other chronic symptoms, this episode will give you a simple roadmap for looking at your health in a new way.Start with the foundation. Build one layer at a time. Give your body what it needs to heal and function better.The sections on home therapies, cell membranes, mitochondria, and gut health were also taken directly from your source material.

What if some of the things affecting your energy, hunger, hormones, sleep and weight have a whole lot less to do with willpower than you think?Today I'm going down the health rabbit hole with my friend Sharon Yeh, PharmD, and this conversation went exactly where you'd expect one of my conversations to go.

ER doctor turned cellular medicine expert Dr. Siobhan Newman spent years saving people in a busy LA emergency room — and watching none of them actually get better. Now she helps people rebuild health at the cellular level, and her approach challenges a lot of what we've been told. We get into why adding exercise when your mitochondria are already underwater just drives more inflammation, how the low-fat era damaged our cells in ways we're still paying for, and her "three nos" — the simple starting point she gives every patient. We also talk about why very low cholesterol is linked to worse outcomes, what peptides actually do (and why buying them online is genuinely dangerous), and why your gut is where immune dysregulation really starts. If you have an autoimmune condition and you've been pushing through fatigue or following advice that isn't landing, this conversation will make a lot of things click.

Dr. Gez Agolli has spent nearly 30 years using integrative medicine to treat cancer, autoimmune disease, and chronic illness — and what he's found challenges almost everything conventional medicine teaches about healing. Josh calls him one of his top two mentors in functional medicine, and this conversation covers the full protocol: terrain, toxicity, advanced therapies, and why testing matters more than guessing. In This Episode: - Why toxicity — not just genetics — is the #1 root cause of cancer right now, and what 3.3 billion pounds of environmental chemicals are doing to the body's terrain - How hyperthermia, high-dose vitamin C (the right kind), and hyperbaric oxygen work together — and which chemotherapy drugs make hyperbaric oxygen contraindicated - What insulin potentiation therapy (IPT) actually does: using fractionated chemo alongside glucose to target cancer cells directly - The circulating tumor cell tests and liquid biopsy markers (including Signatera and ctDNA) that can predict cancer recurrence 6–12 months before a scan shows anything - Why leaky gut is the root cause of autoimmune disease — and what Dr. Agolli's testing protocol reveals that most doctors never order - The glutathione, F2-isoprostane, and GGT markers that measure oxidative stress at the cellular level, and what happens when you address them Chapters: - "00:00:00" – Intro: Cancer Stats & Meeting Dr. Guez Agolli - "00:02:47" – His Origin Story & the Broken Healthcare System - "00:06:50" – What Cancer Is: Cell Biology & Root Causes - "00:13:46" – Sponsor Break: Heal Yourself Book - "00:14:31" – Parasites, Immune System & Terrain Theory - "00:19:57" – Advanced Cancer Testing: The RGCC (Greek) Test - "00:25:38" – Top Cancer Therapies: Hyperthermia, IPT & the 40-Day Protocol - "00:39:26" – Sponsor Break: Health Institute Bloodwork - "00:40:27" – Testing Philosophy: Micronutrients, Food Sensitivities & Glucose - "00:54:44" – Glutathione, Longevity & Reversing Autoimmune Disease - "01:05:12" – Mitochondria, Closing Thoughts & Closing Uncover what's really going on in your body with advanced biomarker testing for hormones, thyroid, and metabolism— plus a 1-hour consultation with a Senior Health Advisor! → http://mybloodwork.com *Disclaimer: The bloodwork our team runs at mybloodwork.com covers a handful of the biomarkers listed in the guide above — including critical thyroid and metabolic markers — plus a 1-hour consultation with a Senior Health Advisor, but does NOT cover all 25.

The 3 Best Supplements for Mitochondria, Energy & Longevity in Menopause Get my free Longevity Stack Masterclass and Supplement Guide for women to learn how to build a personalised supplement stack: https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/free-longevity-stack-masterclass In this episode, Angela explains how mitochondria produce energy, why mitochondrial function can become less efficient with age and hormonal change, and the three advanced supplements she personally uses as part of her longevity strategy: NAD precursors, urolithin A and MitoQ. You'll discover how each targets a different aspect of mitochondrial health — energy production, mitochondrial renewal and protection against oxidative stress — and why supplements work best when layered on top of the fundamentals of sleep, nutrition, exercise, cardiovascular fitness, stress management and, where appropriate, optimising hormones. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why Energy Can Change in Menopause — Declining oestrogen can influence mitochondrial biogenesis and the efficiency of cellular energy production. NAD for Cellular Energy — NAD plays a critical role in helping mitochondria convert food and oxygen into ATP, the energy currency of your cells. Urolithin A for Mitochondrial Renewal — Urolithin A supports mitophagy, the body's natural process for clearing damaged mitochondria and making room for healthier ones. MitoQ for Mitochondrial Protection — MitoQ is designed to reach the mitochondria directly and help protect them against oxidative stress generated during energy production. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS 01:38 — Three different ways to support mitochondrial health 02:50 — Supplement #1: NAD and cellular energy production 04:10 — Supplement #2: Urolithin A and mitophagy 06:22 — Supplement #3: MitoQ and oxidative stress 08:01 — Why supplements should come after the foundations 08:16 — Angela's longevity supplement protocol and free masterclass Want to go deeper?

What if one tiny carbon molecule could help protect your cells from oxidative stress and support the mitochondria responsible for producing your energy? In this fascinating episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, we sit down with Ken Swartz, aka Ken the Scientist, co-founder of C60 Power, to explore Carbon 60 (C60)—a unique form of carbon that Ken first encountered while researching radiation protection in a fusion energy lab. Ken takes us inside the science of C60 and explains why this molecule has gained attention in the longevity and biohacking worlds for its potential role in antioxidant defense, mitochondrial health, cellular energy, inflammation and healthy aging. We break down oxidative stress in simple terms, why mitochondrial function becomes increasingly important as we age, and how C60 differs from familiar antioxidants such as CoQ10 and glutathione. Ken also shares what to look for when choosing a C60 product, including purity, third-party testing, sourcing and packaging. For our midlife listeners, we dig into an especially interesting question: Could supporting mitochondrial health influence the way we experience energy, brain fog and other changes associated with aging? In this episode, you'll learn: What Carbon 60 (C60) actually is—and its surprising connection to fusion-energy research How oxidative stress affects our cells, mitochondria and aging The relationship between mitochondrial function, cellular energy and aging Why brain fog, fatigue and inflammation may be associated with oxidative stress How C60 differs from CoQ10, glutathione and other antioxidants What Ken says about C60 and hormone production—and why women using HRT should discuss supplementation with their healthcare practitioner C60 oil vs. gummies and how the different delivery methods compare What to look for when choosing C60: purity, sourcing, third-party testing and packaging Ways to assess oxidative stress and mitochondrial function What the research does—and does not—tell us about C60 and longevity How topical C60 is being used in skincare Why no supplement replaces the foundations of nutrition, movement, sleep and stress management TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – What is Carbon 60 (C60)? 03:45 – C60, mitochondria and oxidative stress 07:00 – Brain fog, fatigue and inflammation 11:00 – C60, hormones and midlife health 14:30 – How to use C60 and when to expect results 19:45 – How to choose a high-quality C60 product 21:30 – Safety, medications and who should use caution 23:30 – Testing oxidative stress and mitochondrial health 27:30 – C60 for skincare and healthy aging 29:30 – C60 vs. peptides 31:00 – How to get started with C60 Learn more + special listener offer C60 Power: https://shopc60.com Discount code: LIVINGWELL60 C60 research and education: https://www.whatisc60.org ---------------------------------------------------------- Feeling tired, inflamed, or stuck in a cycle of cravings? Join our 7-Day Fall Vitality Reboot starting September 27 and discover how much better you can feel with simple daily habits and a supportive community beside you every step of the way.

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers sits down with fasting expert Ben Azadi, host of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast and author of the book Metabolic Freedom, for a detailed, hour-by-hour walk through exactly what happens inside your body during a 72-hour water fast.   You will learn what's really going on at each stage of a fast, from the first 12 hours of digestive rest all the way through ketone production, autophagy, mitochondrial biogenesis, and a dramatic spike in growth hormone, plus why your body targets visceral fat and old, damaged proteins before anything else.   Dr. Jockers and Ben also cover how to prepare your body before a long fast, what to eat (and avoid) once you break it, which liquids and supplements actually support a fast, and the specific dopamine and immune system resets that happen at the 48 and 72 hour marks.   In This Episode:  00:00 Fasting Supplements Debate 00:27 Podcast Intro and 72 Hour Fast 04:06 12 to 16 Hours Fat Burning 05:51 Ketones and Brain Clarity 08:48 BDNF and Stress Resilience 11:07 Spiritual and Dopamine Reset 13:51 24 Hours Autophagy Begins 16:53 Visceral Fat and Mitochondria 25:12 Growth Hormone and Muscle Loss 29:06 Preparing for a Long Fast 34:20 Push Past Dinner Cravings 35:08 Ghrelin Waves and Herbal Tea 36:43 Deeper Fat Burning Benefits 37:23 Fatty Liver Fuel Explained 38:43 No Such Thing Failed 39:54 Gut Stem Cells and Leaky 44:15 Dopamine Reset at 48 46:38 Immune Reset at 72 47:12 Water Fast vs ProLon 49:29 Discipline and Addiction Break 50:21 What to Drink While 51:59 Supplements Binders and Gut 56:56 Breaking Fast Safely 58:18 Where to Find Jockers 01:00:23 Gratitude Closing Thoughts   Paleo Valley grass-fed meat sticks are a clean, kid-friendly snack (or even a meal replacement) with no sugar, additives, or preservatives, and the proper omega-6 to omega-3 ratio you want from grass-fed beef.

Apply to work with the MI team → https://muscleintelligence.com/apply Ryan Smith co-founded the first pharmacy in the United States to offer an extensive list of peptides — and he ran the synthesis floor himself. Preparative HPLC, mass spec, chemical synthesis, the lot. Which means he spent years watching the same two failures from the inside: the molecule that works beautifully at a small dose and stops working when someone doubles it, and the vial that looks identical to the real thing and isn't. He is not a peptide evangelist. Ask him about the compound he calls ten million times more potent than BDNF and he'll tell you why he doesn't take it. His argument here is quieter than most of what gets said about peptides, and harder to unhear afterward: the body is already a competent system, and nearly everything that goes wrong with these compounds comes from handing it more input than it needed. Why exogenous growth hormone removes a brake the secretagogues leave in place. Why ipamorelin became the standard despite releasing less growth hormone than the compounds it replaced. Why two vials of the same peptide, at the same purity, can behave completely differently. He would rather talk about what he refuses to make than what he's excited about — and by the end of the hour it's clear those are the same conversation. 5 Key Takeaways Why exogenous growth hormone removes a brake your body doesn't get back — and what CJC-1295, ipamorelin and tesamorelin do instead The reason ipamorelin became the clinical standard despite releasing less growth hormone than the compounds it replaced Why the same 500-microgram dose of oral BPC-157 works in one form and barely at all in another Why the peptide he calls 10 million times more potent than BDNF is the one he leaves out of his own stack What a clean HPLC mass spec report still can't tell you about what's in the vial — and why that one blind spot lands on your liver Chapters 0:00 Why Peptides Took a Century to Arrive 4:54 Specificity, Growth Hormone & the Scalpel Argument 16:22 Thymosin Alpha-1, Epitalon & Natural Testosterone 25:25 Mitochondrial Peptides & the Fat Loss Compounds 32:27 BPC-157: Repair, Dosing & the Salt Form Problem 35:46 Peptides for the Brain: FGL, Dihexa & Cerebrolysin 47:05 What He Takes, What He Refuses & Why 52:36 Side Effects, Purity & What's Really in the Vial Connect with Ryan X – https://x.com/ryansmithepiage LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-smith-lexington-ky/ TruDiagnostic – https://www.trudiagnostic.com

I sit down with Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Chris Palmer to dive into his groundbreaking research on how mental disorders are fundamentally metabolic disorders of the brain. We unpack why traditional chemical imbalance theories fall short and explore how everyday lifestyle factors like diet, chronic stress, and substance use directly impact mitochondrial function and neuroplasticity.Dr. Palmer also shares vital insights on cannabis-induced psychosis, building genuine psychological resilience, and supporting loved ones through acute life crises. Whether you are struggling with anxiety or simply looking to optimize your mind, this conversation provides a practical roadmap for reclaiming your brain energy.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 - Introduction00:34 - Why We Turn to Substances Under Stress03:52 - Cannabis-Induced Psychosis & Schizophrenia Risk06:07 - Defining Mental Illness as a Metabolic Disorder13:03 - How Diet, Sugar, and Processed Foods Impact Brain Function17:08 - Mitochondria, Neuroplasticity, and Hormone Balance29:19 - Rethinking the Chemical Imbalance Model41:20 - Psychosocial Stressors and Transgenerational Trauma51:24 - Building Unshakeable Psychological Resilience56:20 - Men's Suicide Risk and Navigating Mental Crisis1:08:09 - Longevity Science, Microplastics, and the Aging Brain***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

Can one molecule almost double our lifespan?Chris Burres is the founder and chief scientist at MyVitalC, the oldest and longest manufacturer of the Nobel Prize-winning ESS60 molecule. He came here to explain why almost nobody has heard of it.The story gets stranger the further in we go. Rice University scientists discovered this ball-shaped carbon molecule in 1985. It performs better than most existing materials in batteries, tires, and inks, and its antioxidant properties are far more powerful than vitamin C. Then a French toxicity study produced unexpected longevity results.Chris outlines the manufacturing process, the liver recovery data, the cancer cell study, the sleep testimonials, and the pet results that leave placebo out of the argument.If you've ever taken C60 and wondered whether you were drinking expensive pee, this one is for you.Visit myvitalc.com/lukestorey and use code STOREY for $30 off your first order.You'll learn:[0:00] Introduction[5:38] The rat study that found 90% longer lifespans[14:15] The graphite-vaporizing, oxygen-free reactor process behind manufacturing pure ESS60[21:18] Adding "not for human consumption" while biohackers kept calling about their 275-pound rats[34:14] The multi-billion-person sleep study we run every daylight savings time[48:47] Why five ampoules a flight became part of my air travel arsenal[55:29] Exploring whether C60 can detox your brain the way activated charcoal can't[1:27:50] The gossip behind the Nobel Prize and the grad students who discovered it but got nothing[1:37:50] Why manually stacking the youth peptide and ESS60 beats using an emulsifier[1:42:45] The Sesame Street test for spotting C60 products that contain zero C60[1:50:39] Three teachers who shaped ChrisResources Mentioned:Wizard Sciences: Use code LUKE for 15% off all products!

What if one of the most powerful anti-aging tools wasn't a supplement, medication, or expensive biohack—but the way you exercise? While many people think of exercise as a way to lose weight or burn calories, its greatest benefits happen deep inside your cells. In today's episode, I discuss: The two most effective forms of exercise for healthy aging and longevity What happens inside your cells when you challenge your muscles and cardiovascular system The often-overlooked factor that can determine whether you stay strong and independent as you age The minimum amount of exercise needed to support your muscles, metabolism, heart, and brain How and why you should measure your VO2 max Healthy aging isn't about finding the latest longevity hack—it's about consistently giving your body the signals it needs to adapt, grow stronger, and stay resilient.
