Chronic disease now affects 76 percent of American adults, which shows a widening gap between higher healthcare spending and worsening national health. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Chris Turnpaugh to explore why the United States has become so chronically ill and why our current medical model, which excels in acute care, struggles with long-term metabolic and inflammatory conditions. Our discussion focuses on the need for a proactive healthcare system that identifies early patterns instead of waiting for disease to reach a crisis point. We talk about the limitations of traditional blood tests, the importance of understanding subtle dysfunction before it becomes pathology, and how lifestyle and environmental factors shape the progression of chronic illness. Early recognition and root-cause medicine form the foundation of better health outcomes. We also highlight emerging tools that are transforming integrative care, including functional peptides like BPC157 and strategies that support mitochondrial health and cellular energy. Dr. Turnpaugh offers a clear and practical perspective on how healthcare can evolve to improve vitality and help patients thrive throughout the chronic disease era.   Key takeaways: The U.S. healthcare system needs to transition from reactive sick care to proactive chronic disease management to address the country's worsening health statistics. Identifying disease patterns and root causes early-on can prevent full-blown diagnoses and improve patient outcomes. Functional peptides such as BPC157 and the role of inflammation management can significantly impact recovery from musculoskeletal and chronic conditions. Integrated health practices that combine multiple disciplines and focus on the whole person are essential for effective treatment and patient care. Mitochondrial health is crucial for overall wellbeing, influencing everything from chronic disease risk to cognitive health. More About Dr. Chris Turnpaugh:   Dr. Chris Turnpaugh is the Founder and Clinic Director of Turnpaugh Health and Wellness Center, where he leads a team of over 20 clinicians in a collaborative care setting. A pioneering force in functional and integrative medicine, he brings more than two decades of clinical expertise, innovation, and leadership to the field. His unique approach blends the art of healing with the science of systems biology through the principles of functional medicine, always with a focus on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Dr. Turnpaugh graduated from Life University and completed his post-doctorate in functional neurology. His passion for functional medicine was sparked in 1995 after attending a seminar with Dr. Jeffrey Bland, the father of functional medicine, while seeking ways to help a patient living with ALS. Inspired by the promise of root cause medicine, he opened the Turnpaugh Health and Wellness Center in 1999. With extensive experience supporting patients facing complex, chronic, autoimmune, and neurological conditions—including Lyme disease, thyroid and hormonal disorders—Dr. Turnpaugh is recognized for his compassionate, whole-person approach. He thrives on the care team model, sharing knowledge not only with patients and colleagues, but also with providers across the country, teaching on topics such as blood chemistry, thyroid conditions, and brain health.

Send us a textIn this powerful & eye-opening conversation, Vanessa & Heather explore the modern fertility crisis through a truly holistic lens—blending circadian biology, environmental medicine, nervous system health, hormonal resilience, and the profound healing potential of classical homeopathy. They uncover the hidden forces quietly reshaping reproductive health today: • artificial light and disrupted circadian rhythms • endocrine disruptors in food, water, and personal care products • chronic stress, trauma imprints, and dysregulated nervous systems • nutrient depletion and mitochondrial dysfunction • toxic environmental exposures and chemical overload • the over-medicalization of women's bodies and intuitionThey also explore how homeopathy can help restore the terrain—supporting fertility by regulating the nervous system, balancing hormones, clearing inherited patterns, detoxifying environmental burdens, helping the body reconnect with its innate intelligence.This conversation reframes fertility not as a symptom to “fix,” but as a profound expression of safety, nourishment, mitochondrial vitality, and soul alignment.Women learn that fertility struggles are not their fault—they are the result of living in a world that has pulled us out of nature, out of rhythm, out of our own bodies.Vanessa shares insights from her Women's Homeopathy Course, a powerful journey that supports women in understanding their constitution, healing emotional imprints, navigating hormonal shifts, and using homeopathic remedies with confidence for themselves/their families.A must-listen for anyone seeking holistic hormonal support, deeper self-care, and a grounded path toward natural conception—rooted in biology, energy, and the wisdom of the feminine. Women's Homeopathy Course Link: https://0fbe4769-fb62-4dbf-a141-982c836b0942.paylinks.godaddy.com/HomeopathywomenSupport the showFind Heather:https://calendly.com/enlightenedmoodhttps://www.instagram.com/enlightenedmood/Discount codes:https://www.vivarays.com ➡️ Code: enlightenedmood.comhttps://midwestredlighttherapy.com/affiliate/enlightenedmood/ https://www.emr-tek.com/enlightenedmood ➡️ Code: enlightenedmood Find Vanessa:https://instagram.com/bright_light_wellness/vanessabaldwin/https://www.instagram.com/healingfamilieswithhomeopathy/Website: https://brightlightwellnesscoach.com/Discount codes:https://midwestredlighttherapy.com/ ➡️ Code: Brightlightwellnesshttps://vivarays.com/ ➡️ Code: Brightlightwellness...

In this episode of the Ancient Health Podcast, Dr. Thomas Levy breaks down for us how oxidative stress—driven by toxins, infections, and nutrient deficiencies—is the real driver of aging and disease. Liposomal vitamin C and glutathione can provide rapid relief, support autoimmune conditions, and restore cellular function by replenishing electrons the body loses to toxins.

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Francisco González-Lima to delve into the metabolic mechanisms that drive brain aging and cognitive decline. He begins by outlining how reductions in cytochrome oxidase activity, disruptions in oxidative phosphorylation, and the accumulation of mitochondrial mutations progressively impair neuronal energy metabolism. These metabolic deficits, he explains, often emerge long before the structural abnormalities associated with Alzheimer's disease. Building on this foundation, the conversation examines how reactive oxygen species, mitochondrial inefficiency, and altered cortical oxygen utilization contribute to diminished cognitive resilience over time. Dr. González-Lima highlights why these metabolic disturbances provide a more coherent explanation for geriatric dementia than traditional protein-centric models. The discussion then shifts to emerging therapeutic strategies. Dr. González-Lima reviews evidence for low-dose methylene blue and 1064 nm transcranial photobiomodulation, both of which appear to enhance mitochondrial respiration and support prefrontal function by directly targeting cytochrome oxidase activity. He concludes by emphasizing the need for metabolism-focused interventions, improved cerebral perfusion, and more precise energy-based frameworks to guide the future of brain-aging therapeutics.

Send us a textHow mitochondria travel between cells and how this hidden communication shapes metabolism, immunity, and even potential therapies.Episode Summary: Dr. Jon Brestoff talks about mitochondrial dynamics inside cells, their transfer between unrelated cells (distinct from inheritance during division), and its roles in adipose tissue communication, macrophage cleanup, and systemic metabolic signaling; they explore how high-fat diets disrupt this process, potential hormetic benefits, therapeutic mitochondria transplantation for diseases like Leigh syndrome and obesity, and broader immunometabolism crosstalk.About the guest: Jon Brestoff, MD, PhD is an associate professor of pathology and immunology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, where he directs the Initiative for Immunometabolism.Discussion Points:Mitochondria per cell range from ~100-5000; they move via fusion/fission, vertical inheritance (cell division), or horizontal transfer without division.Transfer mechanisms: free release, extracellular vesicles, or tunneling nanotubes using cytoskeleton transport.In healthy fat tissue, adipocytes routinely donate mitochondria to macrophages for degradation (quality control); high-fat (lard-based, long-chain FA) diets block macrophage uptake, diverting mitochondria to other organs.Diverted mitochondria may induce “mito-hormesis” (mild oxidative stress boosting antioxidants) or signal adipocyte metabolic status inter-organ.Mitochondria transplantation shows promise in animal models for ischemia-reperfusion, obesity, and mitochondrial diseases.Immune cells prefer glycolysis but have low mitochondrial biomass; transplanted mitochondria tilt T-cells toward anti-inflammatory regulatory phenotype.Circulating cell-free mitochondria rival immune cell numbers.Obesity inflammation stems from dying oversized adipocytes releasing lipids/mitochondria, forming crown-like structures with pro-inflammatory macrophages.Leigh syndrome from genetic mutations disrupting the electron transport chain.Transfer may be an evolutionary relic of endosymbiosis; cells may selectively use exogenous mitochondria like a “generator” during metabolic crisis.Reference Paper:Study: The power and potential of mitochondria transferRelated Episode:M&M 260: Energy Resistance Principle in Life, Healing & Disease | Martin Picard & Nirosha MuruganSupport the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

In this solosode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike unveils the most comprehensive update yet to BioLight's flagship supplement — BioBlue — and takes listeners deep inside the quantum bioenergetic thinking that shaped its redesign. What began as a methylene-blue-based mitochondrial catalyst has evolved into a next-generation longevity systemintegrating deuterium-depleted water, elevated NMN, taurine, and trace gold-silver resonance compounds.   Dr. Mike breaks down the science and reasoning behind each refinement: why Litewater's 10 ppm deuterium-depleted water now forms the clean matrix for all BioBlue liquids, how NMN has been increased ten-fold (10 mg → 100 mg) to meaningfully expand NAD⁺ pools and drive biogenesis, and how taurine stabilizes mitochondrial membranes and calcium signaling for endurance and resilience. He explains the subtle yet powerful tweaks — like a 50 % increase in colloidal gold and silver and a 40 % reduction in fulvic acid — that sharpen redox coherence and enhance longevity signaling.   Dr. Mike dives into: Overview of how BioBlue progressed from a simple methylene-blue solution to a full mitochondrial optimization system. Why all BioBlue liquids now utilizes Litewater for cleaner proton flow and improved ATP efficiency. Why NMN increased from 10 mg → 100 mg per dose to meaningfully raise NAD⁺ levels, drive biogenesis, and enhance DNA repair. Why the addition of Taurine – 100 mg per serving for membrane stability, calcium regulation, and long-term mitochondrial resilience. Enhanced Trace Elements – 50 % more colloidal gold & silver plus refined fulvic acid for smoother redox flow and higher photodynamic efficiency.   This episode isn't just about formulation — it's about why every molecule matters in the pursuit of mitochondrial efficiency, redox stability, and long-term cellular youthfulness. Mike also previews BioLight's upcoming new website, pre-Black-Friday event, and a soon-to-launch BioBlue Lite product line for those seeking simplicity without compromise.   Key Topics Covered Evolution of BioBlue — from the original methylene blue + NMN formula to a comprehensive mitochondrial optimization system. Integration of Deuterium-Depleted Water (Litewater, 10 ppm) — explanation of how lowering deuterium enhances ATP production, redox efficiency, and longevity potential. NMN Upgrade (10× Increase) — new 100 mg per serving dosage for boosting NAD⁺ levels, mitochondrial biogenesis, DNA repair, and energy metabolism. Addition of Taurine (100 mg per serving) — supports membrane integrity, calcium balance, ROS buffering, and cellular longevity signaling. Enhanced Colloidal Gold & Silver (50 % Increase) — improved redox stability, electron flow, and photodynamic synergy with methylene blue and red light. Refined Wu Jin Sun Fulvic Acid (−40 %) — optimizes redox balance and mineral transport while improving synergy between all active compounds. Comprehensive Mitochondrial Benefits — improved ATP efficiency, autophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis for cleaner, more resilient energy production. New Product Lineup — introduction of BioBlue Lite and BioBlue Leuco Lite (simplified methylene blue + water versions) for accessible mitochondrial support. Key Quotes from Dr. Mike   “Deuterium-depleted water doesn't just make the mitochondria go faster—it helps them run truer, cleaner, and more efficiently.”   “We've moved BioBlue from a trace metabolic nudge to a real mitochondrial optimization protocol that supports redox cycling, biogenesis, and longevity pathways in a quantifiable way.”   “Taurine turns BioBlue from a fast-acting energy compound into a cellular longevity stack—supporting repair, recycling, and resilience.”   “By increasing colloidal gold and silver within their optimal bio-signal zones, BioBlue transforms from a chemical redox supplement into a biophysical energy transducer.”   “Each change — from Litewater to taurine — was made to help your mitochondria run longer, cleaner, and more accurately. This is longevity through bioenergetics.” Episode Timeline 00:00 – Announcements: Pre-Black Friday + new website 04:00 – The origin of BioBlue and its evolution 10:00 – Introducing the upgraded BioBlue formula 11:00 – Why BioLight partnered with Light Water 12:00 – How deuterium slows mitochondrial ATP production 17:00 – Functional benefits of deuterium-depleted water 19:00 – 10x increase in NMN for energy and repair 27:00 – Synergy between NMN and methylene blue 30:00 – Adding taurine for stability and longevity 39:00 – Increasing colloidal gold for photonic synergy 46:00 – Boosting colloidal silver for redox protection 52:00 – Why lowering fulvic acid improves coherence 56:00 – What's next: BioBlue Light + legacy pricing offer 01:02:00 – Dr. Mike's closing thoughts on mitochondrial optimization Resources & References Deuterium Depletion and Mitochondrial Efficiency Boros, L.

Introduction:From Gyms to Longevity Hubs CrossFit and other forms of high-intensity training [1-3] have transformed fitness worldwide. Athletes in their 20s and 30s push limits, but often encounter plateaus: recovery slows, fatigue sets in, injuries take longer to heal. At the same time, another demographic is surging - adults over 50 who seek not just fitness, but vitality, resilience, and independence [4,5]. They want energy for family, travel, and life. The bridge between these two worlds is mitochondrial health. www.georgebatista.comWellness Resources: www.myvitaminresource.comhttps://www.instagram.com/georgebatistajr/

Send us a textThe biological roots of sleep are tied to mitochondrial metabolism.Episode Summary: Dr. Gero Miesenböck discusses the evolutionary and metabolic basis of sleep, exploring how mitochondrial energy production in neurons, particularly in fruit flies, drives the need for sleep to manage harmful byproducts like reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxides. They discuss how sleep-inducing neurons sense these byproducts, the role of mitochondrial dynamics, and the broader implications for why all animals, from jellyfish to humans, require sleep. The conversation also touches on how body size and metabolism influence sleep needs across species.About the guest: Gero Miesenböck, MD is a professor of physiology at the University of Oxford, renowned for his pioneering work in optogenetics and his research on the neurobiology of sleep using fruit flies and mice.Discussion Points:Sleep is universal across animals, even in jellyfish without centralized brains, suggesting a fundamental metabolic purpose tied to mitochondrial energy production.Mitochondria produce energy efficiently using oxygen but generate reactive oxygen species that can damage cells through lipid peroxidation, necessitating sleep to repair this damage.Sleep-inducing neurons in fruit flies contain sensors that track lipid peroxidation products, acting like a digital memory to signal when sleep is needed.Smaller animals with faster metabolisms, like mice, require more sleep and have shorter lifespans due to higher oxygen consumption and oxidative stress.Mitochondrial diseases in humans often cause intense tiredness, likely due to increased electron leaks in the mitochondrial energy production process.The evolutionary origin of sleep likely stems from the oxygen revolution 2.5 billion years ago, enabling complex life but requiring mechanisms like sleep to manage metabolic side effects.Caloric restriction reduces sleep need by lowering the production of harmful metabolic byproducts, supporting the link between metabolism and sleep.Reference paper:Study: Mitochondrial origins of the pressure to sleepRelated content:M&M 12: Organisms, Cities, Companies & the Science of Scale | Geoffrey West*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

Mitochondrial loss related to aging can affect vision.As you age, you might notice the following stages of vision loss:1. Contrast sensitivity loss2. Need more light3. See more glare in the dark4. Age-related macular degeneration—can't see fine detailCataracts occur when the lens of the eye becomes cloudy. This is often related to diet. Glaucoma is characterized by pressure in the eyes. High doses of vitamin D3 have been found to help reverse glaucoma. Your eyes are very sensitive to blood sugar problems, which is why one of the leading causes of blindness is diabetes.

In this special masterclass of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Jamie Holmes, Chief Brand Officer of Timeline, to rethink skincare through the lens of longevity. Instead of chasing “anti-aging,” Timeline centers skin health span—keeping skin energetic, resilient, and vibrant for as long as possible. Holmes frames aging as a privilege and makes the case for supporting biology, not hiding it.At the heart of the conversation is Urolithin A, the postbiotic behind Timeline's proprietary MitoPure®. You'll hear how this molecule triggers mitophagy—the cellular cleanup that renews tired mitochondria—so skin can generate more energy and recover from stressors faster. After a decade of research in nutrition, Timeline translated the clinically precise dose into topicals, creating a tight edit of formulas that show measurable gains in hydration and elasticity in as little as 15 days.Jamie opens the lab door on formulation philosophy: no label dusting, just actives at proven concentrations, iterated for texture, absorption, and real-world performance. Even the details matter—the sustainable glass and aluminum, hygienic pumps, and that buttery-yellow hue that reflects MitoPure's natural color—turning daily care into a gender-inclusive ritual. The lineup is intentionally minimalist, designed to slip into any routine and serve both biohackers and skincare newcomers who want evidence over hype.If you're curious about mitochondria as the next frontier in beauty—or you're simply ready to trade quick fixes for cellular results—this episode is your guided tour.

You've probably heard the buzz around the mythical and sketchy-sounding synthetic compound known as methylene blue.How is it that methylene blue went from a 19th-century textile dye to a futuristic, cutting-edge mitochondrial-enhancing compound that turns your tongue blue?After surviving freak bouts of carbon monoxide poisoning, black mold exposure and chronic lyme disease, methylene blue earned its spot in my bag of tricks many moons ago. Should it be in yours?With mitochondrial dysfunction affecting a whopping 94% of adults in the U.S., I'd say it's worth a look.We're here with one of the foremost experts and thought leaders integrating intriguing compounds like methylene blue into their practice, Dr. Scott Sherr. While methylene blue is a remarkable tool for healing and performance optimization of the brain and body, it's not right for everyone. Since methylene blue can interact with certain medications and supplements and we're still learning about its effects on the microbiome, it's essential to exercise caution and be intentional about sourcing, dosage, and frequency of use. Dr. Scott is here to separate the truth from the hype. In this episode, you're about to discover:How to improve metabolic and mitochondrial function with low-dose methylene blueHow combining hyperbaric oxygen therapy and high altitude training with methylene blue further enhance performanceHow to dose methylene blue strategicallyAnd much more…Find Dr. Scott Sherr and his work at: drscottsherr.com: hyperbaric consulting, health optimization, medicine consultingtroscriptions.com: high quality methylene blue and supplement stackshomehope.org: Health optimization, medicine and training for practitionersYou can also join Substack as a free or paid member for ad-free episodes of this show, to comment on each episode, and to hit me up in the DM's.
