Even though we might see different symptoms of chronic inflammation, it all traces back to the health of our mitochondria. The first section of this episode highlights why 93% of Americans are sick and why subspecialized medicine is destroying our health. Dr. Means outlines three main industries that are at the core of healthcare: big pharma, big food, and medical doctors, and the trifecta of what's causing metabolic disease: oxidative stress, metabolic dysfunction, and inflammation. The second section of this episode explains metabolic dysfunction (in simple terms) and how we can fix our mitochondria. Dr. Means explains specific science-based protocols, including nutrition, movement, light therapy, and emotional well-being, and how they impact the mitochondria. This episode is important if you have a metabolic condition in which the healthcare system has failed you. You will learn the simple science of how to improve your mitochondria through science-based nutrition and lifestyle tools for optimal health and longevity.
