204: The “nutritional rockstar” no one’s talking about

by | May 17, 2022 | 0 comments

If you’ve read my new book, Unlocking the Keto Code, you know all about the mitochondria – and why they’re SO essential for overall health. 

It turns out, both aging and disease are controlled in part by our mitochondrial DNA.

And due to things like pollution, stress, and poor diet, our mitochondria can start to wear down with age. 

The good news is, in many cases, some of this damage CAN be repaired.

And my guest today is here to share one of the easiest, most affordable methods for supporting your mitochondrial health.

I welcome back Catharine Arnston, the founder, CEO, and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits – a wellness company specializing in edible algae tablets.

Catharine shares her latest research on how you can help unlock the power of your mitochondria with algae – one of the most potent superfoods on the plane. 

On this episode you’ll learn:

  • The “nutritional rockstar” that has the highest concentration of protein and nutrients in the world (7:00) 
  • What the United Nations has endorsed since the 1970s as the “answer to world hunger” (and where you can get it) (12:00) 
  • Why mitochondria is one of the keys to long life – and how it may help support your immune system and more.] (15:18)
  • The mitochondrial-support diet – and how it may benefit your energy and weight (21:15)
  • Why most spirulina products are missing THIS essential enzyme – and where you can get it (25:00) 
  • Why this man attributes algae to saving his life – and the benefits it may have on YOUR health (41:13) 
  • How you may be able to get the equivalent of a whole plate of vegetables in just one tablet (45:20)
