ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Aging is best explained by declining mitochondrial function over time. This answers its own "why." Mitochondria produce the energy needed for repair so if any of it gets lost it sets up a vicious cycle. And some *always* gets lost. But how much is under your control. From Joe Rogan Experience JRE 2420. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBn54YNnKD0 It's a vicious cycle initiated by the second law of thermodynamics which requires a constant input of energy to prevent the collapse of order. Hence, there will always be slippage, but how much slippage depends on genetics, environment, and behavior, and all slippage leads to loss of mitochondrial repair, which itself directly causes the loss of repair capacity as it weakens the defense against the imperative of the second law of thermodynamics.

Creatine is like your second mitochondria. Or, the mitochondria's chief of staff. Or its co-pilot.
Your mitochondria make ATP so you can see clearly, hear accurately, digest your food, power your brain, show off your your shiny skin, lift heavy things, and perform your best at the challenges you f…
Question: What Is the Real Issue With Seed Oils? Short Answer: The main issue with seed oils is that they present an oxidative liability. They do not acutely cause oxidative stress, but their polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are more vulnerable than any other macronutrient to oxidative damage. O…

Question: Is whole food vitamin C superior to natural because it is part of a tyrosinase complex?
Short Answer: Vitamin C is nearly ubiquitously distributed in plant tissues, and is never bound to any enzyme as a structural complex. Vitamin C promotes absorption of iron from plant foods, inhibits …
D-lactate is commonly stated to be exclusively a microbial metabolite.
This is found in assumptions within the medical literature for decades even when it was long-known to be false.
While D-lactate is indeed made by bacteria, D-lactate is also inarguably and irrefutably produced by human enzym…
