00:00:55.979 --> 00:00:59.920
your support. So check me out on Manect today. Today's
14
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:03.439
episode is sponsored by my good friends at Timeline. Timeline
15
00:01:03.500 --> 00:01:08.030
is now offering the world's first ever longevity gummies powered
16
00:01:08.069 --> 00:01:10.750
by MitoPure. You've heard me talk about the importance of
17
00:01:10.849 --> 00:01:13.659
cellular health and our mitochondria, which is why I have
18
00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:17.159
Timeline as my favorite and most trusted sponsor. These are
19
00:01:17.219 --> 00:01:21.359
the only clinically proven urolithin A gummies for strength and
20
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:24.620
healthy aging. We may be living longer lifespans, but are
21
00:01:24.659 --> 00:01:27.879
we truly living better lives? What if the key is
22
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:31.379
not just adding years to your life, but life to
23
00:01:31.420 --> 00:01:34.760
your years? This all starts at the cellular level. As
24
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:37.780
we age, our mitochondrial health starts to decline, and one
25
00:01:37.829 --> 00:01:40.609
of the keys to living longer and healthier is keeping
26
00:01:40.670 --> 00:01:45.129
our mitochondria healthy and strong, and MitoPure targets this for us.
27
00:01:45.250 --> 00:01:48.489
Take control of your health. now and live the life
28
00:01:48.530 --> 00:01:51.469
that you not only desire, but you also deserve. As
29
00:01:51.510 --> 00:01:54.530
a gift to all my listeners, you can save 20%
30
00:01:54.530 --> 00:01:58.730
off today by going to timeline.com backslash Dylan to get started.
31
00:01:58.810 --> 00:02:04.180
That's timeline.com backslash Dylan. I assure you, your cells will
32
00:02:04.219 --> 00:02:08.919
thank you. All right, everybody, welcome back to the Dylan
33
00:02:08.939 --> 00:02:14.659
Gemelli podcast. I have such a tremendous guest today. She
34
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:18.289
is Just an amazing woman. This is part two. You'll
35
00:02:18.370 --> 00:02:21.610
notice that right away. And we're going to expound on
36
00:02:21.710 --> 00:02:26.409
part one. In part one, we kind of dug deep
37
00:02:26.449 --> 00:02:29.780
into a variety of topics. But today we're going to
38
00:02:29.860 --> 00:02:32.620
do a little bit different. We're going to touch on
39
00:02:32.659 --> 00:02:34.580
some of the same things, but we're going to really
40
00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:38.939
go even further into cellular and mitochondrial health. We're going
41
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:43.069
to talk about different aspects of algae. And I'm sure
42
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.520
you know where we're going with this. My guest today
43
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:49.300
is the founder of Energy Bits. She's been everywhere. She's
44
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:53.219
the most delightful woman around and full of energy. So
45
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:57.599
without further ado, part two with my guest, Katherine Arnston.
46
00:02:58.259 --> 00:03:00.580
Thank you so much, Dylan. Yes, it's been great. I
47
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:02.719
think our first interview was a couple of years. And
48
00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:05.500
since then, I got my PhD in natural health. So
49
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:08.789
I want people to know that I'm I'm going deep
50
00:03:08.990 --> 00:03:10.830
and I want to take you all with me so
51
00:03:10.849 --> 00:03:13.610
that we can turn our lives around or protect what
52
00:03:13.650 --> 00:03:16.159
we have or restore what we lost. And it doesn't
53
00:03:16.180 --> 00:03:18.300
have to be complicated. And I'm going to walk you
54
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:21.039
through the science of why this works so well so
55
00:03:21.099 --> 00:03:25.500
that I'll have people to hang out with when I'm 220.
56
00:03:25.500 --> 00:03:28.800
Right. I love it. Well, since we first talked, I mean,
57
00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:33.469
you've done a ton in research. I've expounded from being
58
00:03:33.509 --> 00:03:37.229
a mitochondrial novice to now I'm certainly no expert, but
59
00:03:37.250 --> 00:03:40.330
I've taken several classes and become certified. So I think
60
00:03:40.370 --> 00:03:42.969
we're going to have a much deeper dive into all
61
00:03:42.990 --> 00:03:44.830
of this. And I can't wait. You're one of the
62
00:03:44.969 --> 00:03:46.930
prime people I want to talk to you about this,
63
00:03:47.009 --> 00:03:50.050
because I think you can attest to this. Once you
64
00:03:50.090 --> 00:03:53.430
start learning and understanding more about cells and mitochondria and
65
00:03:53.469 --> 00:03:57.360
the science behind our bodies. And what they actually do,
66
00:03:57.580 --> 00:04:01.840
it's beyond fascinating. It's almost like an obsession that you
67
00:04:01.860 --> 00:04:02.909
can't get enough of.
68
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:06.599
It is definitely an obsession. And I heard someone coin
69
00:04:06.620 --> 00:04:08.360
a phrase, which I think I'm going to embrace and
70
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:12.300
I encourage you to. You can become, we're all now mitochondriacs.
71
00:04:14.419 --> 00:04:15.020
That's good.
72
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:16.439
That's good.
73
00:04:16.540 --> 00:04:18.959
You got to become a mitochondriac because when you look
74
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:23.079
after your mitochondria, they look after you. It's that simple.
75
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:26.019
And the other thing is once you understand how your
76
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:30.149
body works, you have a better understanding of what it needs,
77
00:04:30.350 --> 00:04:33.750
what it doesn't, and why algae literally has the nutrients
78
00:04:33.790 --> 00:04:37.069
that unlock the key to your great health, to your
79
00:04:37.110 --> 00:04:40.449
great longevity. And you'll know when you've hit the truth
80
00:04:40.550 --> 00:04:44.160
because whatever angle you come at it, it makes sense.
81
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:47.680
When you have the truth, when you have the science,
82
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:51.000
it makes complete sense. The trouble is there's a lot
83
00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:53.540
of noise in the marketplace. And so it's really hard
84
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:55.939
to figure out who's telling the truth. And also it's
85
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:59.920
just very, our bodies are so complex that there isn't
86
00:04:59.980 --> 00:05:04.050
just one clear crystal solution. If there was, the pharmaceutical
87
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:06.490
industry would have had figured it out by now, but
88
00:05:06.589 --> 00:05:10.170
billions of dollars later, they still don't have it. But
89
00:05:10.410 --> 00:05:12.149
the great thing is, and we'll get into this, is
90
00:05:12.189 --> 00:05:15.709
that we're part of nature. We are part of the
91
00:05:15.750 --> 00:05:20.029
world that we inhabit. And algae is also part of nature.
92
00:05:20.129 --> 00:05:22.939
It was the first life on Earth almost four billion
93
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:26.579
years ago. It was spirulina, which is cyanobacteria. There's something
94
00:05:26.620 --> 00:05:28.959
spiritual about being the first life on Earth, which is
95
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:35.579
why I call spirulina spiritualina. So because when you follow
96
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:42.519
the tenets of nature, things just connect. It's magic. Well,
97
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.339
it feels like magic, except it's just natural because we're
98
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.610
from nature. So we're going to help you understand yourself
99
00:05:49.850 --> 00:05:52.889
and what algae is and why it feeds and heals
100
00:05:52.930 --> 00:05:57.689
your mitochondria so you can live long and lively. And
101
00:05:58.149 --> 00:06:03.079
by the way, I'll be turning 70. That's 7-0. next year.
102
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:06.170
So I've been around for quite a while, not as
103
00:06:06.209 --> 00:06:08.829
long as LG, but I am a true testament to
104
00:06:08.889 --> 00:06:11.050
what this stuff does for your brain, for your body,
105
00:06:11.069 --> 00:06:13.990
for your energy, for your sleep, for your poop. I mean, everything.
106
00:06:14.009 --> 00:06:18.079
I love it. You know, before we get into anything,
107
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:20.120
I want to touch on something you brought up because
108
00:06:20.220 --> 00:06:22.879
I've been battling this for 15 years. You know this,
109
00:06:22.920 --> 00:06:25.350
you've been doing it long enough. When it comes to
110
00:06:25.379 --> 00:06:28.569
the industry, and we're going to call it supplement industry,
111
00:06:28.589 --> 00:06:30.689
but we could look at it from pharmaceutical. We could
112
00:06:30.709 --> 00:06:32.329
look at it from vitamin, whatever. We're just going to
113
00:06:32.350 --> 00:06:35.769
call it supplement for the sake of this conversation. It
114
00:06:36.670 --> 00:06:40.529
is so troubling to me and so difficult to sift through.
115
00:06:40.670 --> 00:06:44.649
And I am far from jaded because I understand. And
116
00:06:44.689 --> 00:06:46.529
you do too, because you've been doing this a long time.
117
00:06:46.610 --> 00:06:49.899
But you can really tell. once you've been doing this
118
00:06:49.939 --> 00:06:52.610
a long time, the difference between somebody who's selling their
119
00:06:52.620 --> 00:06:57.569
product and who really, really believes it, lives it, it
120
00:06:58.149 --> 00:07:02.350
exudes it. And that's why I love you because you
121
00:07:02.389 --> 00:07:06.310
fall into that very, very small category of people that
122
00:07:06.370 --> 00:07:09.360
I know that you really, really, I believe in it
123
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:12.680
and you can back it up. And I just want
124
00:07:12.699 --> 00:07:15.910
to point that out because you're rare and I love it.
125
00:07:16.819 --> 00:07:19.490
Well, thank you so much. And, and, thanks to people
126
00:07:19.529 --> 00:07:23.050
like you, we can get a clean piece, bit of
127
00:07:23.149 --> 00:07:25.870
truth out to the world because it is hard to
128
00:07:25.930 --> 00:07:30.000
separate fact from fiction. And when someone goes deep into
129
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:31.899
the science, it takes a long time. I mean, it's
130
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.560
taken me 15 years to figure out what I know now.
131
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:40.110
That's a big commitment. And folks like yourself or Dave Ashbery,
132
00:07:40.949 --> 00:07:44.189
you have also made the commitment to try to find
133
00:07:44.269 --> 00:07:47.050
the best knowledge and share it with your community because
134
00:07:47.509 --> 00:07:50.180
not everybody has the time to be able to do that.
135
00:07:50.220 --> 00:07:52.639
We all have busy lives. We have families to raise
136
00:07:52.699 --> 00:07:56.839
and jobs to maintain. So this is my passion. This
137
00:07:56.920 --> 00:07:59.420
is my path. I tell people I didn't find algae,
138
00:07:59.459 --> 00:08:02.740
it found me. And I'm 15 years in. And I
139
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.870
am more passionate about it now than I was 15
140
00:08:05.870 --> 00:08:09.089
years ago because I know more now. So more knowledge
141
00:08:09.129 --> 00:08:12.189
can either make you change your mind about something because
142
00:08:12.209 --> 00:08:16.110
suddenly now you have new information or it can confirm
143
00:08:16.550 --> 00:08:21.220
what you thought was accurate and reestablish that you were
144
00:08:21.779 --> 00:08:24.000
right the first time. Because when I first spent so
145
00:08:24.019 --> 00:08:26.480
much time on this, I thought, well, what if I'm wrong?
146
00:08:26.899 --> 00:08:29.560
All these years, what if I'm wrong? And then I thought,
147
00:08:30.050 --> 00:08:30.930
What if I'm right?
148
00:08:30.949 --> 00:08:33.590
That's right.
149
00:08:33.970 --> 00:08:35.649
And it's not that I'm right. It's just that I
150
00:08:35.690 --> 00:08:39.690
was committed to finding out what was so amazing about
151
00:08:39.830 --> 00:08:44.169
this particular food group and why don't people know about it.
152
00:08:44.379 --> 00:08:47.039
And the science has been around for 75 or 100
153
00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:49.980
years in some cases. Anybody could have done what I
154
00:08:50.019 --> 00:08:53.220
have done, but nobody did because it's a lot of work.
155
00:08:53.769 --> 00:08:58.029
So yes, I am passionate here because I didn't start
156
00:08:58.149 --> 00:09:01.350
this company to build a billion dollar brand, although I
157
00:09:01.570 --> 00:09:04.129
may end up doing that along the way. I started
158
00:09:04.149 --> 00:09:07.149
this company to help my sister heal from breast cancer.
159
00:09:07.710 --> 00:09:10.990
That were it. Nothing more than that. And then I
160
00:09:11.029 --> 00:09:13.690
realized with my knowledge, I could help a few more people.
161
00:09:13.730 --> 00:09:15.629
And then with more knowledge, I thought I could help
162
00:09:15.649 --> 00:09:18.480
more people. And here I am 15 years later, and
163
00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:21.539
we have a very fast growing company. We're making an
164
00:09:21.620 --> 00:09:24.379
impact on the world. And I'm very proud of what
165
00:09:24.419 --> 00:09:27.320
we do and how we can help people. So yeah,
166
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:31.279
who would want, you feel probably the same way. Rather
167
00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:36.190
than watching Netflix, I deep dive into PubMed because connecting
168
00:09:36.230 --> 00:09:39.149
the dots of how our bodies work and what we
169
00:09:39.190 --> 00:09:42.169
can do to help them improve what's going on in
170
00:09:42.210 --> 00:09:45.679
there is more exciting to me than, Any grand finale,
171
00:09:45.980 --> 00:09:49.600
whether it's a Formula One racing, a Broadway play or
172
00:09:49.620 --> 00:09:53.879
a Netflix movie, you know, this is real time making
173
00:09:53.909 --> 00:09:55.909
a difference in the world. And it's exciting to me.
174
00:09:56.210 --> 00:09:59.049
My wife has to go to bed every night without
175
00:09:59.110 --> 00:10:01.429
me because I'm up really late. and studying and she's
176
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:03.399
fine with it because she knows what I'm doing and
177
00:10:03.460 --> 00:10:06.980
like loves it but I it's it's like this Catherine
178
00:10:07.580 --> 00:10:10.559
Michael Jordan didn't stop shooting baskets to stay the best
179
00:10:10.740 --> 00:10:13.860
right Tom Brady didn't stop throwing passes to stay the
180
00:10:13.899 --> 00:10:16.539
best they do it constantly they never stop and that's
181
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:20.470
how you stay well we have to stay up on research,
182
00:10:20.509 --> 00:10:24.549
stay up on things that are being nonsensically put out
183
00:10:24.610 --> 00:10:26.049
in front of us. And we have to be able
184
00:10:26.070 --> 00:10:29.309
to call that out. And that's a never ending thing.
185
00:10:29.669 --> 00:10:31.149
And it's also fun.
186
00:10:31.169 --> 00:10:36.519
Yeah. And you have to be curious. Curiosity is like, well,
187
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:40.570
that's interesting. I wonder if there's more there. And you
188
00:10:40.610 --> 00:10:43.509
can get down this rabbit hole and four hours later,
189
00:10:43.529 --> 00:10:47.759
you may or may not have solved your question, but
190
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:51.679
you're certainly even more curious. So I'm very blessed to
191
00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:54.480
be curious and I can tell you are too. And
192
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:59.269
so we can share the fruits of our labor and
193
00:10:59.330 --> 00:11:02.350
our curiosity with those who don't have the wherewithal or
194
00:11:02.389 --> 00:11:04.769
don't know how to connect the dots. So that's what
195
00:11:04.809 --> 00:11:05.210
we're here for.
196
00:11:05.230 --> 00:11:08.169
That's exactly what I try to do. And I live that.
197
00:11:08.389 --> 00:11:12.110
And I'm thankful to be able to do this with
198
00:11:12.149 --> 00:11:14.289
you today. And so what I want to start with
199
00:11:14.509 --> 00:11:18.330
is I want to really get into different aspects of
200
00:11:18.429 --> 00:11:20.929
mitochondrial health. I want to start from the easiest part.
201
00:11:20.950 --> 00:11:24.110
And then I want to get a little deeper into it,
202
00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:26.879
more scientific, because I know we can do that. And people,
203
00:11:27.220 --> 00:11:29.240
once we ease them into it, they will grasp what
204
00:11:29.259 --> 00:11:32.570
we're getting into. And some people are probably extremely well
205
00:11:32.610 --> 00:11:35.190
versed on this. But let's start from the top. Let's
206
00:11:35.210 --> 00:11:39.429
just give a basic breakdown of what mitochondria is. Why
207
00:11:39.529 --> 00:11:42.360
is it so important for us and how does it
208
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:46.820
affect our long term and even short term health and longevity? Exactly.
209
00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:49.830
All right. So the best analogy I give to people
210
00:11:49.870 --> 00:11:53.029
to start high level is that think of your mitochondria
211
00:11:53.210 --> 00:11:55.710
as the lights in a building and actually even the
212
00:11:55.769 --> 00:11:58.590
electricity in the building. Now, in a building, if your
213
00:11:58.769 --> 00:12:01.509
power goes out or your lights go out, you can't
214
00:12:01.529 --> 00:12:04.450
very well do any work. So you pick up the
215
00:12:04.590 --> 00:12:07.029
phone and call maintenance and they either turn the power
216
00:12:07.049 --> 00:12:09.990
back on or they fix your light bulbs. Problem solved.
217
00:12:10.190 --> 00:12:14.929
In your body, that light bulb and the electricity both
218
00:12:15.169 --> 00:12:18.409
come from the mitochondria. Trouble is we don't have any
219
00:12:20.289 --> 00:12:22.889
maintenance people that we can call when they go out.
220
00:12:22.970 --> 00:12:26.240
And they do go out because you need the power,
221
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:29.480
the energy that's generated by mitochondria, which is called ATP
222
00:12:30.259 --> 00:12:33.759
for everything. It's not just, it's called cellular energy. It's
223
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:36.039
not just energy to run to the grocery store or
224
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:40.850
have a great workout. It's energy for your neurotransmitters in
225
00:12:40.889 --> 00:12:43.409
your brain, for your lymphatic system, for your digestion, for
226
00:12:43.429 --> 00:12:48.779
your heartbeat, for your lungs, everything requires cellular energy. Now,
227
00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:56.809
here's the problem. The mitochondria get damaged from toxins, from stress,
228
00:12:56.909 --> 00:13:01.110
from lack of proper nutrition. And the worst part is
229
00:13:01.429 --> 00:13:07.100
they get very damaged and they die rapidly after the
230
00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:09.360
age of 40. And I'm going to walk you through
231
00:13:09.379 --> 00:13:14.889
why and what nutrient is missing and why algae has
232
00:13:14.950 --> 00:13:19.080
that missing nutrient. So here's the thing. Mother Nature is
233
00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:22.070
so intelligent, God, whatever you want to call it. Our
234
00:13:22.110 --> 00:13:26.330
bodies are so refined. We are a perfect example of
235
00:13:26.370 --> 00:13:29.509
a closed circuit. We have everything in our bodies or
236
00:13:29.610 --> 00:13:32.960
outside from nature if you live a holistic life to
237
00:13:33.129 --> 00:13:35.360
get what you need. And some of those things that
238
00:13:35.899 --> 00:13:39.159
nature has provided us are things like melatonin that help
239
00:13:39.220 --> 00:13:45.129
us sleep, ferment testosterone to help us be virile and
240
00:13:45.850 --> 00:13:49.950
help make babies. And there's also a particular nutrient that
241
00:13:49.990 --> 00:13:53.350
you may not be aware of that's called superoxide dismutase.
242
00:13:53.779 --> 00:13:57.220
which is also referred to as SOD. So these and
243
00:13:57.379 --> 00:14:01.730
hundreds of other nutrients, macro, micro nutrients, enzymes, coenzymes are
244
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:05.450
in our bodies from the moment we're born. Okay, so
245
00:14:05.470 --> 00:14:11.250
far so good. Now, as you hit 30, the age 30, things,
246
00:14:11.370 --> 00:14:14.429
some of these nutrients start to decrease in the quantity
247
00:14:14.490 --> 00:14:16.710
by which your body is making them. Some of them
248
00:14:16.750 --> 00:14:21.190
are like melatonin, testosterone, for women it's estrogen, and also
249
00:14:21.230 --> 00:14:29.210
this antioxidant called superoxidismetase. And by 40, the cliff is dramatic.
250
00:14:29.690 --> 00:14:34.289
After 40, it drops, it plummets And by 50, you
251
00:14:34.350 --> 00:14:39.009
are missing a vast majority of these nutrients, estrogen for women,
252
00:14:39.230 --> 00:14:42.230
when they go into perimenopause and menopause, testosterone for men,
253
00:14:42.669 --> 00:14:47.379
and this antioxidant called superoxidase. So you may wonder, why
254
00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:49.679
is that happening? And I'm going to tell you why.
255
00:14:50.419 --> 00:14:53.899
We have been on earth for 2 million years. Now,
256
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.250
up until about 200 years ago, We died at 30.
257
00:14:58.250 --> 00:15:02.470
Nature is so intelligent, it doesn't waste anything. So we
258
00:15:02.529 --> 00:15:08.139
are biologically programmed, evolutionarily programmed to die at 30. This
259
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:11.539
is why after 30, things start to slow down. And
260
00:15:11.580 --> 00:15:16.080
by 40, they are dramatically decreased, whether it's melatonin, superoxytocin,
261
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:20.840
or in men's cases, testosterone for women, estrogen. Because There's
262
00:15:21.000 --> 00:15:23.399
nothing you can do about it. We are evolutionary. Your
263
00:15:23.460 --> 00:15:25.679
body thinks you're dying at 30. So it's just not
264
00:15:25.700 --> 00:15:28.019
going to waste good stuff. Women, we're not going to
265
00:15:28.039 --> 00:15:30.279
have any babies generally. Well, they do now, but they
266
00:15:30.340 --> 00:15:33.480
used to never have any babies after 30 or 40.
267
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:37.769
So this lack of this superoxide dismutase is devastating. And
268
00:15:37.789 --> 00:15:41.210
I'm going to tell you why. What does this stuff do? Well,
269
00:15:41.350 --> 00:15:43.549
in your mitochondria, and I'm going to show you an image,
270
00:15:44.110 --> 00:15:47.629
you have all of these, sorry, in your cells, you
271
00:15:47.649 --> 00:15:52.440
have these mitochondria and they are gathered in high quantities
272
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:56.090
where the highest energy needs are. For example, and I
273
00:15:56.129 --> 00:15:58.570
have all the science references for this, there are up
274
00:15:58.710 --> 00:16:03.629
to 2 million mitochondria per cell in your neurotransmitters in
275
00:16:03.649 --> 00:16:08.340
your brain. 2 million. That's incredible. The next highest are
276
00:16:08.360 --> 00:16:12.460
women's eggs, which are about 700,000 per cell. Next highest
277
00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:15.059
is your heart, which is about 8,000 per cell. And
278
00:16:15.220 --> 00:16:19.139
muscles are the next highest, about 4,000. And so the
279
00:16:19.779 --> 00:16:22.870
reason there's so many mitochondria in these areas is because
280
00:16:22.909 --> 00:16:26.210
this is where your body's greatest energy needs are. So
281
00:16:26.409 --> 00:16:29.320
in your cell, you have these little peanut-shaped things that
282
00:16:29.340 --> 00:16:33.159
are the mitochondria. And inside the mitochondria, that's where the
283
00:16:33.259 --> 00:16:37.299
energy is generated called ATP. All right. So far, so good.
284
00:16:37.570 --> 00:16:42.169
Here's the problem. Your mitochondria have their own DNA. We
285
00:16:42.210 --> 00:16:45.210
all know we have our 22,000 regular, they're called nuclear DNA,
286
00:16:45.230 --> 00:16:47.789
which are located elsewhere in the cell in the cytoplasm.
287
00:16:48.190 --> 00:16:50.730
But your mitochondria have their own DNA. There's only 37
288
00:16:50.730 --> 00:16:55.169
of them. And they are located inside exactly where the
289
00:16:55.230 --> 00:16:59.120
ATP is produced. So now you have the ATP being produced,
290
00:16:59.179 --> 00:17:01.759
which is good. That's what creates all that cellular energy.
291
00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:04.660
So you can think, walk, talk, breathe, whatever, poop. But
292
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:08.880
inside are where the mitochondria DNA are. What people don't
293
00:17:09.019 --> 00:17:13.670
know is a byproduct of ATP inside the mitochondria are
294
00:17:13.730 --> 00:17:17.410
free radicals. Now, we've all heard of free radicals. Maybe
295
00:17:17.750 --> 00:17:19.730
you don't know. I'll explain what they are. They're a
296
00:17:19.730 --> 00:17:23.289
molecule that has an unpaired electron. And so nature wants
297
00:17:23.329 --> 00:17:27.230
to always have balance. So that molecule will steal an
298
00:17:27.289 --> 00:17:30.930
electron from another molecule to balance it out. But that
299
00:17:30.990 --> 00:17:34.380
leaves it unbalanced and causes tissue damage. So then it
300
00:17:34.470 --> 00:17:38.160
steals from another molecule, which causes imbalance in tissue. And
301
00:17:38.180 --> 00:17:41.079
that's how it goes. Except there are these white knights
302
00:17:41.220 --> 00:17:46.789
called antioxidants. Now, antioxidants are molecules with extra electrons. which
303
00:17:46.849 --> 00:17:49.839
they can donate to a free radical to neutralize it,
304
00:17:50.109 --> 00:17:54.230
all right? The problem is virtually no antioxidants can get
305
00:17:54.289 --> 00:17:59.460
inside the inner membrane of the mitochondria because the mitochondria
306
00:17:59.539 --> 00:18:02.500
is the only cell in your body with two membranes.
307
00:18:02.980 --> 00:18:05.079
It has a regular lipid membrane like all the rest
308
00:18:05.099 --> 00:18:07.769
of your cells, but it also has this inner membrane
309
00:18:08.190 --> 00:18:11.829
that cannot be penetrated by most antioxidants. That's why they've
310
00:18:11.849 --> 00:18:15.410
done studies with vitamin C and vitamin E and found
311
00:18:15.450 --> 00:18:20.119
out they've had zero impact on extending longevity. Zero. That's
312
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:23.859
because they couldn't get into the inner membrane. There are
313
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:26.960
a handful of antioxidants that can, and luckily they're all
314
00:18:27.019 --> 00:18:29.509
in algae. One of them is glutathione, one of them
315
00:18:29.529 --> 00:18:33.529
is chlorophyll, but the most important one is called superoxide dismutase.
316
00:18:33.690 --> 00:18:36.769
And here's why. The type of free radical that is
317
00:18:36.869 --> 00:18:41.390
produced only in the mitochondria is called superoxide. And it
318
00:18:41.490 --> 00:18:44.710
is the most damaging free radical in your entire body.
319
00:18:45.250 --> 00:18:49.130
What makes it so damaging? Instead of having one unpaired electron,
320
00:18:49.369 --> 00:18:54.650
it has three. So it is very, very damaging. That's
321
00:18:54.730 --> 00:18:59.539
why this stuff called superoxidismutase, which is an antioxidant that
322
00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:01.589
your body makes for you from the moment you're born,
323
00:19:02.049 --> 00:19:05.910
but slows down after 30 and virtually your body stops
324
00:19:06.019 --> 00:19:09.980
making it after 40. This is why you need superoxidismutase
325
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:15.039
because what does superoxidismutase do? It neutralizes that free radical,
326
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:19.099
that damaging free radical called superoxide that is only produced
327
00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:24.670
by in the mitochondria. Because if it's not neutralized, the
328
00:19:24.769 --> 00:19:28.210
free radical will damage the DNA of the mitochondria and
329
00:19:28.289 --> 00:19:31.740
cause the mitochondria to die. The best analogy I can
330
00:19:31.779 --> 00:19:35.299
give to people is when you are out in a rainstorm,
331
00:19:35.700 --> 00:19:37.539
if you have one of those big golf umbrellas, whether
332
00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:40.180
you are golfing or shopping and you pop that baby up,
333
00:19:40.700 --> 00:19:45.450
you don't stop the rain, but you stop getting wet. Right? Right.
334
00:19:45.470 --> 00:19:49.809
So think of superoxide dismutase like a big golf umbrella. Right.
335
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:54.200
radicals are a natural byproduct of ATP production. It's just
336
00:19:54.299 --> 00:19:57.869
the way it is. So when you have superoxide dismutase,
337
00:19:58.349 --> 00:20:02.039
it doesn't stop the free radicals. but it neutralizes them
338
00:20:02.170 --> 00:20:06.839
and turns them into oxygen and water, okay? Which we'll
339
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:08.539
talk about that in a minute because your cell needs
340
00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:12.720
oxygen and water. So not only does superoxidant dismutase protect
341
00:20:12.740 --> 00:20:16.569
your mitochondria so it doesn't get damaged, It also keeps
342
00:20:16.630 --> 00:20:20.490
the cell healthy with oxygen, which is required in the
343
00:20:20.549 --> 00:20:25.619
final step of ATP production. And it provides also the
344
00:20:25.700 --> 00:20:29.180
water that the molecules need in this process called electron
345
00:20:29.220 --> 00:20:33.640
transport chain, which actually is how the ATP is produced.
346
00:20:33.660 --> 00:20:35.180
And I'm going to walk you through that as well.
347
00:20:35.779 --> 00:20:40.539
So the problem is at 40, you have virtually no
348
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:44.869
superoxide dismutase being produced anymore. And at the same time
349
00:20:44.930 --> 00:20:49.130
for men, your testosterone is dropping. And for women, the
350
00:20:49.309 --> 00:20:52.690
estrogen levels are dropping. And nobody's probably told you, but
351
00:20:52.789 --> 00:20:56.289
both of these hormones act as free as antioxidants in
352
00:20:56.329 --> 00:21:01.720
the mitochondria. Estrogen even more powerfully than testosterone. This is
353
00:21:01.819 --> 00:21:05.910
why at age 40 and 50, levels of chronic disease
354
00:21:06.329 --> 00:21:11.289
just blow through the roof because without the protection of superoxidismutase,
355
00:21:11.670 --> 00:21:15.160
your mitochondria are getting damaged and dying. It's like the
356
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:18.799
lights in your building go out. and out and out.
357
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:21.009
Like you can almost feel it in your brain. Women
358
00:21:21.069 --> 00:21:25.470
have brain fog so badly when they're in perimenopause and menopause.
359
00:21:25.849 --> 00:21:29.730
And it's because your mitochondria are the highest concentration are
360
00:21:29.769 --> 00:21:32.490
in their brain. And so when you have your mitochondria
361
00:21:32.539 --> 00:21:37.079
dying with such speed, the first thing that you feel
362
00:21:37.579 --> 00:21:40.140
is your brain isn't working. It's not working at all.
363
00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:43.839
So the great thing that I can tell you, there's
364
00:21:43.859 --> 00:21:47.180
a happy ending to this, is that spirulina, has the
365
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:52.440
highest concentration of superoxidismutase in the world, okay? So we have,
366
00:21:52.980 --> 00:21:56.019
our two brands are Energy Bits, and there's actually superoxidismutase
367
00:21:56.059 --> 00:21:58.329
in chlorella as well. We call it Recovery Bits. But
368
00:21:58.369 --> 00:22:01.789
the highest concentration is in spirulina. But there's a catch.
369
00:22:02.130 --> 00:22:06.849
Not all spirulina has active superoxidismutase in it.
370
00:22:06.869 --> 00:22:06.940
Why?
371
00:22:07.250 --> 00:22:11.230
Because it's also an enzyme. And enzymes are deactivated by
372
00:22:11.299 --> 00:22:13.240
high heat. Doesn't matter what kind of enzyme it is.
373
00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:17.089
So when you buy less expensive algae products, usually it's
374
00:22:17.130 --> 00:22:19.710
lower priced and they need to get to market quickly.
375
00:22:19.890 --> 00:22:22.170
So they cut corners and one of the corners they
376
00:22:22.190 --> 00:22:27.210
cut is they use high heat and that deactivates the superoxidismutase.
377
00:22:27.650 --> 00:22:30.309
It's like getting a great deal on a fabulous car,
378
00:22:30.329 --> 00:22:32.609
except you lift the hood and there's no engine in there.
379
00:22:33.029 --> 00:22:37.450
So it may be there, but it's not active. You could,
380
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:41.359
of course, also get fresh spirulina or frozen spirulina because
381
00:22:41.420 --> 00:22:44.900
those two have also not been exposed to high heat.
382
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:49.980
Anything over the temperature of 114 Fahrenheit will deactivate any enzyme.
383
00:22:50.119 --> 00:22:53.299
Doesn't matter whether you're cooking food on the countertop or
384
00:22:53.380 --> 00:22:56.180
drying your algae. So the key is to be sure
385
00:22:56.220 --> 00:23:00.059
that you're getting high quality spirulina that has not been
386
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:02.549
exposed to high heat like ours. And there's very few
387
00:23:02.609 --> 00:23:07.630
companies that have this high heat, who don't use high heat.
388
00:23:07.910 --> 00:23:09.690
But that's why ours works so well. And that's why
389
00:23:09.750 --> 00:23:13.029
doctors endorse us. That's why athletes endorse us. We fuel
390
00:23:13.170 --> 00:23:17.430
NHL teams, NHL teams. triathletes, ultra runners, because they get
391
00:23:17.470 --> 00:23:21.230
the maximum energy from spirulina. And it's not just the
392
00:23:21.329 --> 00:23:26.349
energy from the protein and the B vitamins. It's absolutely
393
00:23:26.430 --> 00:23:30.430
critical that you get your mitochondria functioning again, because they're
394
00:23:30.470 --> 00:23:34.809
responsible for generating all the cellular energy in your body.
395
00:23:35.390 --> 00:23:39.750
For athletes, it's like the fifth highest concentration of mitochondria.
396
00:23:39.789 --> 00:23:43.369
So not only do they generate energy for you, muscle
397
00:23:43.390 --> 00:23:48.079
mass is a predeterminant of longevity because it's sort of
398
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:50.660
a circular thing because the more mitochondria you have, the
399
00:23:50.680 --> 00:23:53.160
more energy you're going to have, the better health you're
400
00:23:53.180 --> 00:23:55.880
going to have. So you will live longer. You will
401
00:23:56.039 --> 00:23:59.619
live healthier. So they go hand in hand. But this
402
00:23:59.680 --> 00:24:05.940
superoxidismutase is essential for longevity, for performance, and to protect
403
00:24:05.980 --> 00:24:09.829
your brain and to protect everything. But after 40, you
404
00:24:09.869 --> 00:24:13.630
have virtually zero, 40 or 45. And nobody seems to
405
00:24:13.690 --> 00:24:16.160
know yet that you can find it in spirulina in
406
00:24:16.200 --> 00:24:19.200
the highest quantity if it hasn't been exposed to high heat.
407
00:24:19.539 --> 00:24:23.440
And I can walk you through the actual process by
408
00:24:23.500 --> 00:24:26.779
which these free radicals are generated, if you're interested, because
409
00:24:26.819 --> 00:24:30.519
it goes a little deeper into the science. But again,
410
00:24:30.579 --> 00:24:33.839
if you understand the science, then you'll understand what's really
411
00:24:33.880 --> 00:24:36.619
going on. So do I have your permission to go
412
00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:37.180
a little deeper?
413
00:24:37.779 --> 00:24:39.680
Yeah, absolutely. I want to hear it all.
414
00:24:40.119 --> 00:24:45.329
Okay. So the way the actual... ATP, which is cellular energy,
415
00:24:45.450 --> 00:24:49.089
is produced, which is inside the mitochondria, is through something
416
00:24:49.150 --> 00:24:53.470
called the electron transport chain. Now, the best way to
417
00:24:53.490 --> 00:24:56.150
describe it is I think you've probably all seen a
418
00:24:56.210 --> 00:24:58.269
relay race at some point in your life, probably maybe
419
00:24:58.289 --> 00:25:00.630
even ran in some. So in a relay race, you
420
00:25:00.650 --> 00:25:03.970
have a runner who passes a baton to the next runner,
421
00:25:03.990 --> 00:25:05.950
and then they pass it to the next runner, and
422
00:25:05.970 --> 00:25:08.349
then they hope to cross the finish line sooner than
423
00:25:08.390 --> 00:25:12.250
anybody else. Well, the way that your energy at the
424
00:25:12.289 --> 00:25:17.369
mitochondria level is produced is very similar, except instead of runners,
425
00:25:17.750 --> 00:25:21.640
you have these proteins. There's four of them, one, two, three, four.
426
00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:26.819
And instead of a baton being passed from one runner
427
00:25:26.859 --> 00:25:30.819
to the next, they pass electrons. And the key is
428
00:25:31.160 --> 00:25:35.759
to pass the electrons very quickly. so that the final step,
429
00:25:36.180 --> 00:25:41.920
which requires oxygen, allows ATP to be produced, okay? Now,
430
00:25:42.309 --> 00:25:45.109
as you can see in this picture, these four runners
431
00:25:45.190 --> 00:25:48.589
or these proteins are relatively close to one another. And
432
00:25:48.650 --> 00:25:51.769
so when they are passing the electrons and when they
433
00:25:51.809 --> 00:25:55.210
are close together, you get a lot of ATP. But
434
00:25:55.690 --> 00:26:00.339
what happens from, you get a lot of electrons not
435
00:26:00.460 --> 00:26:05.099
being able to be passed if there's too many. And
436
00:26:05.140 --> 00:26:09.200
you get too many electrons that fall out or leak out,
437
00:26:09.259 --> 00:26:11.789
as the expression goes, if you eat too many carbs.
438
00:26:12.410 --> 00:26:15.930
And so too many carbs cause leakage of the electrons.
439
00:26:15.990 --> 00:26:19.589
So two things happen. They don't finish the pass, so
440
00:26:19.609 --> 00:26:22.430
you're not getting as much energy. And they leak out
441
00:26:22.849 --> 00:26:25.730
to cause free radicals, which causes that damage of the
442
00:26:25.750 --> 00:26:29.670
mitochondria that I talked about. So here's another picture. Here's
443
00:26:29.730 --> 00:26:32.890
a picture of a mitochondria with all of those little
444
00:26:33.329 --> 00:26:36.769
runners close to one another. So this is a healthy mitochondria.
445
00:26:37.410 --> 00:26:39.809
So the runners are close to one another. They can
446
00:26:39.849 --> 00:26:43.509
make the pass. That allows energy to be generated. And
447
00:26:43.549 --> 00:26:48.250
you only have a few electrons leaking out for whatever reason. However,
448
00:26:48.529 --> 00:26:51.190
as they leak out, and maybe either as you get stressed,
449
00:26:51.509 --> 00:26:55.029
have too many toxins, get too acidic, run out of
450
00:26:55.089 --> 00:26:59.579
superoxide dismutase, a thousand reasons that cause too many electrons
451
00:26:59.930 --> 00:27:03.900
to leak out. What happens is those electrons cause the
452
00:27:03.940 --> 00:27:09.319
mitochondria to expand. They expand so much that now those
453
00:27:09.400 --> 00:27:13.759
runners can't pass the electron, the baton, to one another
454
00:27:14.039 --> 00:27:18.890
very effectively. So two things happen there. Number one, your
455
00:27:18.990 --> 00:27:22.299
energy drops because they can't make the pass. It's like
456
00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:24.539
asking Tom Brady to make a pass in a stadium
457
00:27:24.559 --> 00:27:27.539
that's four times larger than a regular stadium. It can't
458
00:27:27.579 --> 00:27:30.720
be done. So first you lose energy because they can't
459
00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:34.660
make the pass. Number two, because they're so far apart
460
00:27:34.700 --> 00:27:37.240
from one another, instead of making the pass like they
461
00:27:37.279 --> 00:27:41.000
should be doing, more of the electrons leak out and
462
00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:45.779
become free radicals. So it's a downward spiral. As the
463
00:27:45.819 --> 00:27:49.140
mitochondria get more and more damaged, they get further, they
464
00:27:49.160 --> 00:27:51.359
get bigger and bigger and bigger. And then they go
465
00:27:51.380 --> 00:27:55.059
through a process which is called necrosis. Necrosis is when
466
00:27:55.099 --> 00:27:59.240
the mitochondria basically blow up. It's sort of, and I
467
00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:02.700
was thinking about the analogy because when we were kids,
468
00:28:02.809 --> 00:28:05.930
and maybe everybody's, you used to have this castaneta. It's
469
00:28:05.950 --> 00:28:08.210
a Mexican game and you would hit it. And if
470
00:28:08.230 --> 00:28:11.509
you hit it hard enough, all the goodies would fall out.
471
00:28:11.609 --> 00:28:14.920
And in that case, it's good stuff. But the mitochondria,
472
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:19.269
we've got all these free radicals and probably toxins that
473
00:28:19.289 --> 00:28:22.230
are causing the damage, causing it to not be working properly.
474
00:28:22.569 --> 00:28:25.869
So when you go through this necrosis, that's not good
475
00:28:25.930 --> 00:28:30.029
stuff that's being exploded like a castaneda. That's bad stuff.
476
00:28:30.430 --> 00:28:33.359
That's free radicals. That's damaging. And so when it explodes,
477
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:36.380
it leaks out into the rest of the cell. to
478
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:38.680
the rest of the mitochondria. And this is why you
479
00:28:38.700 --> 00:28:43.119
get cellular damage happening so quickly, particularly with cancer. It
480
00:28:43.180 --> 00:28:46.240
grows very, it goes very, very quickly. So the trick
481
00:28:46.400 --> 00:28:51.430
is to make sure that that electron transport chain molecules,
482
00:28:51.450 --> 00:28:55.269
their proteins are very close together and are being able
483
00:28:55.329 --> 00:29:01.250
to make the pass. And so superoxidismetase, not only, well, algae,
484
00:29:01.289 --> 00:29:04.380
first of all, not only has zero carbs because excess
485
00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:10.099
carbs leak out faster. And in your mitochondria, the electron
486
00:29:10.140 --> 00:29:12.359
transportation can't keep up with it because there's too many.
487
00:29:12.720 --> 00:29:14.980
There's a great video, you can get it on YouTube
488
00:29:15.059 --> 00:29:18.710
of Lucille Ball. She was a comedian back in the 60s.
489
00:29:19.049 --> 00:29:23.970
This little clip is her on a chocolate factory. And
490
00:29:23.990 --> 00:29:26.450
there she's trying to put, she's hired to put chocolates
491
00:29:26.490 --> 00:29:28.779
in the chocolate box and they keep speeding it up
492
00:29:28.819 --> 00:29:30.599
and she can't keep up. So she starts eating the
493
00:29:30.619 --> 00:29:33.519
chocolates and she throws them over her shoulders. That's sort
494
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:35.809
of what happens when you eat too many carbs or
495
00:29:36.980 --> 00:29:40.259
the electron transport chain can't keep up. That's why intermittent
496
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:44.630
fasting is so great because you literally slow down the
497
00:29:45.170 --> 00:29:48.990
excess electrons that are being released because there just isn't
498
00:29:49.089 --> 00:29:53.900
food to be processed into energy. So Your electron transport
499
00:29:53.920 --> 00:29:57.079
chain gets a chance to clean up. It's called autophagy.
500
00:29:57.420 --> 00:30:00.220
Or it goes through healthy cell death, which is apoptosis,
501
00:30:00.259 --> 00:30:04.700
which is completely different from this thing called necrosis. Healthy
502
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:07.680
cell death is what you want. It's when your cell goes, hey,
503
00:30:07.700 --> 00:30:10.119
I've been around for a long time. I think I've
504
00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:12.319
done a good job, but it's time to retire because
505
00:30:12.339 --> 00:30:15.289
I'm feeling a little, you know, a little off. Just
506
00:30:15.329 --> 00:30:17.950
like someone who's maybe they've been at a job, they've
507
00:30:18.150 --> 00:30:21.500
worked till they were 60, you know, 70. time to go.
508
00:30:21.619 --> 00:30:24.220
So they give all their projects and their leads to
509
00:30:24.240 --> 00:30:29.390
the next generation and life at the company continues. Well,
510
00:30:29.589 --> 00:30:33.269
in something called apoptosis, which is healthy cell death, your
511
00:30:33.309 --> 00:30:36.660
cell knows it's time to go and it doesn't explode,
512
00:30:36.700 --> 00:30:40.259
which is very inflammatory. Instead, it divides itself up into
513
00:30:40.339 --> 00:30:43.700
smaller little cells and gives away all the good DNA
514
00:30:43.759 --> 00:30:46.960
to all the little cells and and they continue on
515
00:30:47.440 --> 00:30:52.019
in their future life. No inflammation, nothing. That's what you
516
00:30:52.059 --> 00:30:54.420
want for, and that's what you get when you have
517
00:30:54.440 --> 00:30:58.900
a healthy cell. In comparison, cancer cells are not healthy,
518
00:30:59.279 --> 00:31:05.529
nor are senescent cells, and cancer cells can't go through apoptosis.
519
00:31:05.990 --> 00:31:08.769
So you want things that are going to keep the
520
00:31:08.809 --> 00:31:13.480
cell healthy, Superoxidant digitase not only protects the mitochondria from
521
00:31:13.539 --> 00:31:18.140
the free radical damage by ensuring that the free radicals
522
00:31:18.180 --> 00:31:22.319
that are leaking out are not damaging the mitochondria, it's
523
00:31:22.380 --> 00:31:25.900
converting it to oxygen and water, which your cell needs
524
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:32.369
anyways to continue the process of cellular energy production, which
525
00:31:32.410 --> 00:31:34.950
is called ATP. So it does two things. It's a
526
00:31:35.009 --> 00:31:38.410
closed loop. It protects the mitochondria and then provides the
527
00:31:38.450 --> 00:31:41.759
cell the oxygen needs for the last step, and the
528
00:31:42.019 --> 00:31:45.500
water that it needs to protect those proteins. It's called
529
00:31:45.519 --> 00:31:48.579
easy water, exclusionary zone water, and we could talk about
530
00:31:48.619 --> 00:31:52.329
that more. So it's pretty interesting to me that you
531
00:31:52.369 --> 00:31:56.789
get all of this from nature, from spirulina, but only
532
00:31:57.289 --> 00:31:59.009
if it has not been exposed to high heat, and
533
00:31:59.029 --> 00:32:01.230
then you're not getting any of those benefits.
534
00:32:02.230 --> 00:32:06.079
So is a lot of, or most all, everything out
535
00:32:06.119 --> 00:32:10.309
there exposed to the high heat and and how was
536
00:32:11.210 --> 00:32:14.829
how difficult is it to go through the process as
537
00:32:14.890 --> 00:32:18.529
you go through so that people can understand what it
538
00:32:18.609 --> 00:32:20.990
takes for you and how did you even figure this
539
00:32:21.190 --> 00:32:25.109
out because i understand about cutting corners i mean most
540
00:32:25.269 --> 00:32:28.319
big companies are going to do that but most people
541
00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:30.480
would never have a clue about what you're talking about
542
00:32:30.619 --> 00:32:31.019
yeah like.
543
00:32:31.220 --> 00:32:36.029
Well zero Yeah, it's a result of, at the very beginning,
544
00:32:36.309 --> 00:32:41.130
I was just so curious about everything. Why was our
545
00:32:41.210 --> 00:32:43.970
algae working better than anybody else? And so I started
546
00:32:44.009 --> 00:32:48.039
looking at the nutrients found in algae. So a disclaimer,
547
00:32:48.519 --> 00:32:52.579
in case the FDA is listening, all of these benefits
548
00:32:52.740 --> 00:32:56.000
that you achieve from taking algae is not actually from
549
00:32:56.079 --> 00:33:00.900
the algae. It's from the nutrients found in algae. For example,
550
00:33:00.980 --> 00:33:09.099
superoxide dismutase. There are 25,000 studies documenting that superoxidase absolutely,
551
00:33:09.359 --> 00:33:16.039
hands down, no question whatsoever, prevents inflammation, protects mitochondria, stops Alzheimer's,
552
00:33:16.539 --> 00:33:21.059
stops dementia, prevents heart disease, prevents cancer. The list is
553
00:33:21.200 --> 00:33:25.430
endless and it's all scientifically proven. The problem is nobody
554
00:33:25.470 --> 00:33:29.609
seems to know that you can find superoxidase in spirulina
555
00:33:29.910 --> 00:33:33.759
because it's not found in any other food or, And
556
00:33:34.079 --> 00:33:38.059
it's found in such minuscule amounts. Like we have in
557
00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:40.019
one of our tablets, which are about the size of
558
00:33:40.059 --> 00:33:45.839
a baby aspirin, there's 7,000 times more superoxidismutase than you
559
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:51.759
can find in cabbage. And by the way, any superoxidismutase
560
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:55.400
that's in vegetables gets damaged by your stomach through the
561
00:33:55.440 --> 00:33:59.069
digestion process. And the great thing about spirulina is that
562
00:33:59.119 --> 00:34:02.460
it's not even a plant. It's a bacteria. It's called
563
00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:06.119
a cyanobacteria. And why is that important? Because it will
564
00:34:06.180 --> 00:34:11.280
get absorbed into your bloodstream in seconds if you chew it.
565
00:34:11.639 --> 00:34:13.760
I do. Most people do swallow it. Then it will
566
00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:17.159
take minutes to get absorbed. So this is why I
567
00:34:17.260 --> 00:34:22.110
really promote Spirulina for mitochondria health, which will help protect
568
00:34:22.449 --> 00:34:26.550
your health from any issues, accelerated aging, or help you
569
00:34:26.590 --> 00:34:29.510
regain it. Because it goes to work so quickly because
570
00:34:29.570 --> 00:34:32.570
it can get access to your cellular structure and your
571
00:34:32.590 --> 00:34:36.730
mitochondria instantly. So how did I figure it out? It
572
00:34:37.190 --> 00:34:40.260
just kept asking questions, kept reading and reading and reading.
573
00:34:41.659 --> 00:34:44.320
And then I'm just curious. So for example, I hope
574
00:34:44.360 --> 00:34:47.500
you're curious. You think to yourself, well, why is it
575
00:34:47.920 --> 00:34:51.989
that the mitochondria have two membranes? And why is it
576
00:34:52.050 --> 00:34:55.809
that inner membrane is impenetrable by virtually anything? By the way,
577
00:34:55.909 --> 00:34:59.010
drugs can't get in there either. So I was curious.
578
00:34:59.650 --> 00:35:02.530
And I just kept reading and reading, and I found
579
00:35:02.570 --> 00:35:05.610
the answer. And this stuff is so amazing. You couldn't
580
00:35:05.650 --> 00:35:08.510
make this up if you tried. So remember I said
581
00:35:08.610 --> 00:35:11.780
spirulina was the first life on Earth? It's a case.
582
00:35:12.070 --> 00:35:15.000
I know bacteria. And it's been on Earth almost 4
583
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:19.780
billion years. Before spirulina and cyanobacteria, Earth was just gas
584
00:35:19.860 --> 00:35:23.199
and water. There was no life, nothing, and no oxygen.
585
00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:28.619
Nobody knows why this anaerobic, which means it grows without oxygen,
586
00:35:28.920 --> 00:35:32.380
it was an anaerobic single cell started growing, but it did,
587
00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:38.150
and it generated ATP, and a byproduct of ATP is oxygen. Remember,
588
00:35:38.170 --> 00:35:39.969
we were talking about the oxygen and the SOV. So
589
00:35:40.489 --> 00:35:42.630
after a billion years, there was now a lot of
590
00:35:42.789 --> 00:35:47.110
oxygen on Earth. So now the anaerobic cell that did
591
00:35:47.130 --> 00:35:50.329
better without oxygen was struggling. On the other hand, now
592
00:35:50.369 --> 00:35:55.000
there was oxygen, so larger cells, started growing, but they
593
00:35:55.039 --> 00:35:58.619
weren't generating ATP as well. So I sort of joke
594
00:35:58.659 --> 00:36:02.039
about the conversation between the large aerobic cell and the
595
00:36:02.119 --> 00:36:05.769
small original anaerobic cell going something like this. The big
596
00:36:05.809 --> 00:36:08.349
cell says to the little cell, hey, little guy, I
597
00:36:08.429 --> 00:36:11.170
see you're struggling over there and we're not making ATP
598
00:36:11.210 --> 00:36:13.150
as well as you are. How about you come and
599
00:36:13.170 --> 00:36:16.190
join forces from us? We'll protect you from the oxygen
600
00:36:16.690 --> 00:36:19.469
and you can generate ATP for us. I'm not sure
601
00:36:19.489 --> 00:36:23.150
about the conversation, but in the 1960s, this was proven
602
00:36:23.230 --> 00:36:27.150
by an MIT professor, and it's called endosymbiotic theory. This
603
00:36:27.210 --> 00:36:32.429
is the evolution of your mitochondria. Proven, proven, proven. Okay,
604
00:36:32.449 --> 00:36:34.789
but you've never heard anybody tell you this. I felt
605
00:36:34.809 --> 00:36:37.789
like I won the Nobel Prize when I discovered this. Anyway,
606
00:36:37.829 --> 00:36:43.599
so here's a picture. This is your little anaerobic cell, cyanobacteria,
607
00:36:43.639 --> 00:36:46.460
that started growing almost 4 billion years ago. After a
608
00:36:46.460 --> 00:36:49.699
billion years, Larger cells could grow, but they weren't generating
609
00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:54.860
ATP as well. So they absorbed the original cell. And
610
00:36:54.920 --> 00:36:59.280
guess what? It became your mitochondria. But when it got absorbed,
611
00:37:00.280 --> 00:37:04.550
the original outer cell never disappeared. The bigger cell just
612
00:37:04.590 --> 00:37:07.510
put a lipid membrane around it, just like all your
613
00:37:07.550 --> 00:37:13.840
other cells, and kept the original cellular membrane. That's why
614
00:37:13.980 --> 00:37:18.670
there is a second membrane on your mitochondria and not
615
00:37:18.769 --> 00:37:21.969
in any other cell in your body. And this is
616
00:37:22.030 --> 00:37:27.389
why algae feed your mitochondria everything it needs, because generationally
617
00:37:27.610 --> 00:37:32.619
they are related. It's called endosymbiotic theory. It's proven in science.
618
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:35.119
How unbelievable is that?
619
00:37:35.539 --> 00:37:38.050
Very. I want to touch on a couple terms, and
620
00:37:38.070 --> 00:37:40.519
then I'm going to get into more along the lines
621
00:37:40.780 --> 00:37:45.400
of Barrelina, Chlorella, benefits, how they're synergistic, why you need
622
00:37:45.420 --> 00:37:47.860
them both. But just a couple terms, because I study
623
00:37:47.880 --> 00:37:50.389
these and I want you to discuss them very quickly.
624
00:37:50.489 --> 00:37:55.610
So I want to discuss mitophagy, autophagy, and senescent cells,
625
00:37:55.730 --> 00:37:58.010
just a breakdown of what that all means so that
626
00:37:58.030 --> 00:37:59.949
we can understand how that correlates.
627
00:38:00.570 --> 00:38:07.250
Yeah. Okay, so autophagy, which we mentioned briefly, is basically
628
00:38:07.329 --> 00:38:10.849
your cell cleaning itself. I don't have children, but I
629
00:38:10.909 --> 00:38:14.889
have family who have teenagers. And anyone with teenagers know
630
00:38:14.949 --> 00:38:17.349
they're out late at night. They come home. They drop
631
00:38:17.369 --> 00:38:19.260
their clothes on the floor. Then they go out the
632
00:38:19.300 --> 00:38:21.260
next day. They come back down and drop more clothes
633
00:38:21.280 --> 00:38:23.500
on the floor. After about a week, you can't see
634
00:38:23.539 --> 00:38:25.559
the floor. You can't see their bed. You can't see anything.
635
00:38:25.579 --> 00:38:27.480
It's just a big mess. And finally, mom puts her
636
00:38:27.500 --> 00:38:29.699
foot down and says, you clean your room. And then
637
00:38:29.920 --> 00:38:32.130
maybe when they finally clean the room, they find some
638
00:38:32.170 --> 00:38:35.309
lost money, maybe lunch they forgot to have. But basically,
639
00:38:35.329 --> 00:38:39.510
you know, things are restored and things work out better.
640
00:38:40.170 --> 00:38:44.590
That's what autophagy is. Your cells are so busy, um,
641
00:38:44.849 --> 00:38:49.690
making more cell structure, helping the mitochondria, uh, move around,
642
00:38:49.789 --> 00:38:53.030
connect with each other, communicate. There's free radicals that they
643
00:38:53.070 --> 00:38:55.800
have to deal with. There's, there's toxins. The average adult
644
00:38:55.820 --> 00:38:57.659
has 700 toxins in their body. Now they have to
645
00:38:57.719 --> 00:38:59.380
figure out how to get rid of them or they
646
00:38:59.400 --> 00:39:01.739
can't get rid of them. They're trying to fight off, um,
647
00:39:01.980 --> 00:39:04.860
acidity because acidity in your cell indicates there's a lack
648
00:39:04.900 --> 00:39:07.800
of oxygen and, and, uh, The pH is too high,
649
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:11.219
so cancer cells. So your cells are really busy. So
650
00:39:11.960 --> 00:39:16.800
autophagy is critical to keeping them clean so they can
651
00:39:16.840 --> 00:39:22.769
be optimized. But if they're constantly busy because there's too
652
00:39:22.809 --> 00:39:26.250
much free radicals escaping because they're eating too many carbs,
653
00:39:26.289 --> 00:39:30.480
you're exercising too much, you're too stressed, or too many... toxins,
654
00:39:31.019 --> 00:39:34.480
that never happens. And so that's what causes the cell
655
00:39:34.519 --> 00:39:38.750
to get sick and reach this stage where it can't
656
00:39:38.789 --> 00:39:42.489
handle the acidity, the toxins, the free radicals and explodes
657
00:39:43.050 --> 00:39:46.380
called necrosis. which then spreads all the free radicals and
658
00:39:46.400 --> 00:39:48.619
all the toxins to the rest of the mitochondrion cells.
659
00:39:48.639 --> 00:39:51.719
So that's why autophagy is important. And the way you
660
00:39:51.760 --> 00:39:55.820
get to autophagy is a couple of ways. You can
661
00:39:55.840 --> 00:39:59.630
do it through cold plunges or cryo, which helps the
662
00:39:59.670 --> 00:40:03.869
body cleanse. And then you want chlorella. And when it's cleansing,
663
00:40:03.889 --> 00:40:05.570
it's getting rid of toxins. So guess what you need
664
00:40:05.590 --> 00:40:08.090
to have after your cold plunge or your or your
665
00:40:08.150 --> 00:40:12.010
sauna or your cryo is chlorella. Chlorella is the cleanup act.
666
00:40:12.070 --> 00:40:13.639
It will get rid of all the toxins that were
667
00:40:13.699 --> 00:40:17.000
released during that process because you don't want them released
668
00:40:17.059 --> 00:40:19.340
and then just reabsorbed, right? You want to get rid
669
00:40:19.360 --> 00:40:23.280
of them. Another way is through intermittent fasting because as
670
00:40:23.340 --> 00:40:26.739
I mentioned earlier, not digesting. So the number of free
671
00:40:27.579 --> 00:40:31.380
radicals and electrons in the electron transportant is reduced. So
672
00:40:31.420 --> 00:40:33.599
now the cell has, oh, oh, I'm not so busy
673
00:40:33.860 --> 00:40:36.929
trying to, you know, do ABC. Now I can actually
674
00:40:37.090 --> 00:40:42.179
start cleaning up and getting back to health. So that's
675
00:40:42.320 --> 00:40:45.860
another really great way to do it. So cryo, cold plunge,
676
00:40:47.469 --> 00:40:51.210
red light therapy is really good because it increases ATP
677
00:40:51.230 --> 00:40:55.449
production and reduces inflammation. Anything that helps the cell produce
678
00:40:55.530 --> 00:40:59.489
more energy efficiently is a great way to do it.
679
00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:05.889
And again, spirulina also improves autophagy because there are zero carbs.
680
00:41:06.389 --> 00:41:10.730
It also has that superoxytismetes that protects the free radicals,
681
00:41:10.809 --> 00:41:16.130
restores and brings more oxygen and water into the cell.
682
00:41:16.469 --> 00:41:20.809
It has glutathione that helps reduce other ROS, which are
683
00:41:21.429 --> 00:41:26.710
free radicals. So it's very much an autophagy-friendly food, and
684
00:41:26.789 --> 00:41:28.989
it does not break your fast. when you take it.
685
00:41:29.210 --> 00:41:36.639
So that's autophagy. Now, mitophagy is a specialized version of autophagy.
686
00:41:37.099 --> 00:41:40.380
It's the mitochondria because they want to clean themselves up too.
687
00:41:40.400 --> 00:41:42.409
You know, it's just like, You see your cat or
688
00:41:42.429 --> 00:41:44.789
your dog, they're licking themselves or cleaning themselves. Well, your
689
00:41:44.809 --> 00:41:48.889
mitochondria want to do the same thing. But mitophagy is
690
00:41:49.130 --> 00:41:59.190
also the way that mitochondria either multiply or shrink in quantity.
691
00:41:59.829 --> 00:42:04.010
They go through a slightly different process. There's two methodology.
692
00:42:04.070 --> 00:42:07.500
One's called fusion and the other one is fission. Fusion
693
00:42:07.719 --> 00:42:11.079
is when the mitochondria says, oh gosh, I'm feeling a
694
00:42:11.099 --> 00:42:14.300
little sick here. Got too many free radicals. I think
695
00:42:14.340 --> 00:42:19.139
I'm going to merge with another mitochondria who have the
696
00:42:19.179 --> 00:42:22.110
stuff that I don't have. And when we do that,
697
00:42:22.510 --> 00:42:25.650
we will be healthier because we've fused ourselves. I got
698
00:42:25.969 --> 00:42:28.630
to run a company and there's only so much I
699
00:42:28.670 --> 00:42:30.510
can do. So I need to hire other really great
700
00:42:30.769 --> 00:42:34.010
people who know stuff that I don't know. And so together,
701
00:42:34.460 --> 00:42:37.619
I say, we're better together. So when your mitochondria go
702
00:42:37.639 --> 00:42:41.230
through fusion, they're better together and they can live longer
703
00:42:41.329 --> 00:42:45.320
and do well and contribute more cellular energy for you.
704
00:42:46.300 --> 00:42:53.199
The other is called fission, is when they divide. And
705
00:42:53.559 --> 00:42:57.219
that's when they multiply and they make sure that the
706
00:42:57.579 --> 00:43:07.469
DNA is... They basically separate into multiples. But this process
707
00:43:07.530 --> 00:43:13.960
of fusion or fission is not possible... when the mitochondria
708
00:43:14.519 --> 00:43:17.909
are suffering and are damaged from free radicals because nothing
709
00:43:17.969 --> 00:43:22.869
works properly. So they either don't multiply or they don't
710
00:43:23.010 --> 00:43:27.539
properly fuse to maintain the health of each other. So
711
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:32.869
because spirulina has these nutrients, superoxidism taste, glutathione and chlorophyll,
712
00:43:32.909 --> 00:43:35.070
which are all very cleansing and get in there, it
713
00:43:35.110 --> 00:43:39.969
facilitates the fusion and fission process. Because your mitochondria, even
714
00:43:39.989 --> 00:43:43.449
though there's only 37 of them, they control all of
715
00:43:43.510 --> 00:43:46.269
your other DNA, 37 DNA, they control all of your
716
00:43:46.289 --> 00:43:50.090
other 22,000 DNA and all of your cellular communication. So
717
00:43:50.159 --> 00:43:52.800
it's very important that you keep your mitochondria and the
718
00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:57.039
mitochondria DNA healthy. I say they're sort of like the
719
00:43:57.119 --> 00:43:59.800
air controllers at an airport. There aren't many of them,
720
00:44:00.179 --> 00:44:02.980
but they control everything at the airport. So there's not
721
00:44:03.039 --> 00:44:07.400
many mitochondria DNA, but they're like prize fighters. They're like stallions.
722
00:44:07.460 --> 00:44:10.739
I mean, you need to protect those and you protect
723
00:44:10.780 --> 00:44:13.820
them by your lifestyle. I tell everyone, I don't ever
724
00:44:13.900 --> 00:44:16.440
eat alone. I always eat with my mitochondria. So whatever
725
00:44:16.500 --> 00:44:18.199
you're eating is either good for them or not good
726
00:44:18.219 --> 00:44:23.239
for them. Whatever you're doing, exercise is terrific, especially if
727
00:44:23.260 --> 00:44:29.000
you do high intensity and then intervals, things that strain
728
00:44:29.079 --> 00:44:32.380
the mitochondria, strengthen that. That's why cold plunges are good
729
00:44:32.460 --> 00:44:37.230
or sauna or red light. It's putting, well, maybe not
730
00:44:37.250 --> 00:44:40.289
red light because that doesn't strain them, but the cold
731
00:44:40.329 --> 00:44:44.690
plunges in the cryotherapy do strain them. So it strengthens them.
732
00:44:45.030 --> 00:44:47.769
So that's autophagy and mitophagy. And what was the third one?
733
00:44:47.809 --> 00:44:49.489
I can't remember. Oh, senescent cells.
734
00:44:49.510 --> 00:44:50.469
Senescent cells.
735
00:44:50.840 --> 00:44:55.639
All right. So senescent cells, so your cells are constantly
736
00:44:56.340 --> 00:45:00.079
subdividing and redividing and that's where you're, and they can
737
00:45:00.139 --> 00:45:02.260
only do about, they think of the measure, they can
738
00:45:02.280 --> 00:45:04.880
do it like 50 times. And each time they subdivide,
739
00:45:05.360 --> 00:45:08.659
The little telomeres that are the things that protect your
740
00:45:08.679 --> 00:45:11.610
DNA get a little shorter each time. Somebody made the
741
00:45:11.650 --> 00:45:15.610
analogy on your shoestrings in your running shoes. It's like
742
00:45:15.650 --> 00:45:18.210
that little plastic thing on the end of the shoestring
743
00:45:18.269 --> 00:45:21.510
that makes it prevent being unraveled, right? When you lose
744
00:45:21.550 --> 00:45:27.690
that little end of your shoestring, sometimes the shoestring frays
745
00:45:27.710 --> 00:45:30.750
or and it gets messy and doesn't tie up as well.
746
00:45:31.090 --> 00:45:34.650
So your telomeres are these little things that, or mittens
747
00:45:34.690 --> 00:45:36.389
if you want to almost think about them, that protect
748
00:45:36.429 --> 00:45:42.510
your DNA. But as your cell subdivides, the telomeres get
749
00:45:42.610 --> 00:45:45.230
shorter and shorter and shorter until at the very end,
750
00:45:46.780 --> 00:45:51.199
the DNA is exposed, which causes cellular damage. And after
751
00:45:51.239 --> 00:45:55.050
about 50 years, subdivisions and the DNA starting to get
752
00:45:55.409 --> 00:45:59.730
exposed to toxins, which cause, you know, DNA damage. The
753
00:45:59.789 --> 00:46:03.130
cells just, they don't, they hang around. They're inflammatory because
754
00:46:03.150 --> 00:46:07.280
they're loaded with, usually loaded with free radicals and toxins
755
00:46:08.659 --> 00:46:13.159
because they just got fatigued after 50 subdivisions, but they
756
00:46:13.179 --> 00:46:18.519
don't die. And because they're around and they're toxic and inflammatory,
757
00:46:18.539 --> 00:46:22.449
they cause inflammation in the surrounding cells. So you want
758
00:46:22.489 --> 00:46:24.309
to get rid of them and you get rid of
759
00:46:24.349 --> 00:46:28.730
them through apoptosis, which is that healthy cell death, which
760
00:46:28.789 --> 00:46:33.519
can be stimulated through intermittent fasting, the cryo, the cold plunges,
761
00:46:34.500 --> 00:46:38.139
anything that helps the cell heal. Now, I have another
762
00:46:38.199 --> 00:46:40.380
interesting thing that you need to know about on the
763
00:46:40.440 --> 00:46:43.159
senescent cell. I'm glad I was almost going to forget
764
00:46:43.179 --> 00:46:45.989
about to tell you this. Again, Mother Nature provided us.
765
00:46:46.070 --> 00:46:48.670
It's absolutely crazy. So remember when I told you about
766
00:46:48.710 --> 00:46:52.300
this electron transport chain and there's four main molecules in
767
00:46:52.340 --> 00:46:55.699
here that the electrons pass from one another. Well, I
768
00:46:55.760 --> 00:46:59.670
didn't mention, but there's this little helper molecule. It's called
769
00:46:59.769 --> 00:47:02.170
cytochrome C, which I'm sure you've never heard of before.
770
00:47:02.829 --> 00:47:05.809
And it's a, it kind of, on a healthy cell,
771
00:47:06.670 --> 00:47:10.929
when the electrons are coming along, the blue pigment in
772
00:47:10.989 --> 00:47:13.889
the spirulina, not found anywhere else, by the way, way
773
00:47:13.929 --> 00:47:17.789
better than methylene blue for a thousand reasons. But anyways,
774
00:47:17.829 --> 00:47:23.079
the blue pigment in spirulina speeds up that cytochrome C molecule.
775
00:47:23.099 --> 00:47:27.710
It's like having a Ferrari. So it moves the electrons
776
00:47:27.909 --> 00:47:31.070
across faster, which of course generate more energy for you,
777
00:47:31.110 --> 00:47:34.170
which is one of the many reasons why you get
778
00:47:34.269 --> 00:47:38.500
energy from spirulina, because of the blue phycocyanin that speeds
779
00:47:38.599 --> 00:47:42.699
up the cytochrome C molecule. So you get faster movement
780
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:46.320
of electrons, which generate more ATP. So far, so good.
781
00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:51.659
Here's the cool thing. In a senescent cell or a
782
00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:57.179
cancer cell, the blue phycocyanin can detect that it's a
783
00:47:57.300 --> 00:48:02.369
cancer cell or a senescent cell. And instead of speeding
784
00:48:02.409 --> 00:48:04.969
it up like it does in a healthy cell, it
785
00:48:05.050 --> 00:48:10.030
ejects the cytochrome C molecule, which triggers something called capases,
786
00:48:10.550 --> 00:48:15.880
which triggers this thing called apoptosis. Now, senescent cells can't
787
00:48:15.960 --> 00:48:19.760
trigger their own apoptosis, nor can cancer cells. The blue
788
00:48:19.820 --> 00:48:25.039
phycocyanin does it. Unbelievable. This is why I call spirulina
789
00:48:25.139 --> 00:48:27.730
intelligent food, because you have to be intelligent to take it.
790
00:48:28.219 --> 00:48:30.280
And it knows what to do in your body. And
791
00:48:30.380 --> 00:48:33.989
I have some science papers. I can show you one
792
00:48:34.030 --> 00:48:38.769
of them of an experiment where they had cancer cells,
793
00:48:38.809 --> 00:48:41.190
it could have been finessa cells, in a petri dish,
794
00:48:41.610 --> 00:48:44.429
and they dyed the cancer cells purple. And then they
795
00:48:44.530 --> 00:48:49.409
put the phycocyanin in the petri dish And within 24 hours,
796
00:48:49.750 --> 00:48:53.570
the cancer cells were all gone. Gone. And the chemotherapy
797
00:48:53.630 --> 00:48:58.110
companies know this. They put phycocyanin in their treatments now.
798
00:48:58.210 --> 00:49:03.139
Here's the exact experiment. Here's that experiment. Here's the petri dish.
799
00:49:03.679 --> 00:49:07.679
They dyed the cancer cells purple. They put some phycocyanin,
800
00:49:07.699 --> 00:49:13.000
which is spelled P-H-Y-C-O-C-Y-A-N-I-N. And I want you to know
801
00:49:13.019 --> 00:49:14.880
how to spell it so you can Google it and
802
00:49:14.920 --> 00:49:18.760
find out, right, phycocyanin in cancer treatments. So they dyed
803
00:49:18.780 --> 00:49:22.980
the cells purple. put the phycocyanin in the Petri dish,
804
00:49:23.380 --> 00:49:26.530
and 24 hours later, cancer cells are virtually all gone.
805
00:49:26.929 --> 00:49:30.690
So the cancer treatment companies that use phycocyanin in their
806
00:49:30.750 --> 00:49:33.909
chemotherapy treatments, do you know how they measure whether the
807
00:49:33.929 --> 00:49:38.380
cancer treatment is working? They measure how much cytochrome C
808
00:49:38.820 --> 00:49:41.139
is in the bloodstream. Because if there's a lot of
809
00:49:41.179 --> 00:49:45.460
cytochrome C, they know it's been ejected, which killed the
810
00:49:45.480 --> 00:49:48.880
cancer cell because it goes through apoptosis. I don't know
811
00:49:48.920 --> 00:49:53.900
anybody who wants cancer chemotherapy treatments. So Mother Nature has
812
00:49:53.980 --> 00:49:59.440
provided us with the opportunity to kill cancer cells every
813
00:49:59.480 --> 00:50:04.219
single day when you take spirulina. It has, but this
814
00:50:04.260 --> 00:50:08.659
whole blue phycocyanin, I've found some research, is also deactivated
815
00:50:09.199 --> 00:50:11.940
by high heat. So if you get the cheaper algae
816
00:50:12.000 --> 00:50:13.760
and if they use high heat, most of them do,
817
00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:16.590
if they're made in China and India, you aren't getting
818
00:50:16.710 --> 00:50:20.550
active phycocyanin. But again, you could get frozen or fresh
819
00:50:20.570 --> 00:50:24.510
spirulina because that has not been treated with high heat.
820
00:50:24.969 --> 00:50:28.150
But ours is a raw spirulina, same with chlorella, because
821
00:50:28.170 --> 00:50:30.269
we do not use high heat. So you're getting all
822
00:50:30.289 --> 00:50:34.420
of the active powers. But how cool is that? You
823
00:50:35.239 --> 00:50:38.010
absolutely want to get rid of senescent cells. We always
824
00:50:38.050 --> 00:50:40.170
have cancer cells in our bodies. It just is the
825
00:50:40.190 --> 00:50:42.769
way it is. But if you have a strong immune
826
00:50:42.789 --> 00:50:46.110
system and if you have strong and lots of mitochondria,
827
00:50:46.489 --> 00:50:49.369
and who does these days, normally if you had both
828
00:50:49.409 --> 00:50:52.750
of those, your body would be able to keep the
829
00:50:52.789 --> 00:50:55.969
senescent cells and the cancer cells under control. But this
830
00:50:56.289 --> 00:51:00.530
era that we live in with excess toxicity and lacking
831
00:51:00.570 --> 00:51:04.210
of nutrition and the loss of superoxidismutase after the age
832
00:51:04.250 --> 00:51:08.960
of 40, most people are predisposed after the age of
833
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:14.000
40 to develop chronic disease. And the great news is
834
00:51:14.019 --> 00:51:16.320
it doesn't have to be that way. It's as easy
835
00:51:16.380 --> 00:51:19.510
as opening your mouth and taking a handful of spirulina tablets,
836
00:51:20.230 --> 00:51:23.550
preferably ours because they will work for you every single day.
837
00:51:25.389 --> 00:51:28.710
And it's food. It's not a supplement. It's not a drug.
838
00:51:29.769 --> 00:51:37.269
And it does all these amazing things naturally. Absolutely naturally. Amazing. Yes.
839
00:51:37.730 --> 00:51:42.170
Thank you for that breakdown. So that was insightful and helpful. And,
840
00:51:42.269 --> 00:51:44.710
you know, those are terms that get thrown around that
841
00:51:44.750 --> 00:51:47.610
people don't really understand or know, especially in detail. And
842
00:51:47.639 --> 00:51:49.800
you broke it down very nicely. So I appreciate it.
843
00:51:49.800 --> 00:51:51.820
Yeah. So let's do.
844
00:51:51.719 --> 00:51:54.159
This then with the time left that we have. Let's
845
00:51:54.239 --> 00:52:00.380
talk about the correlation and synergy between spirulina and chlorella,
846
00:52:00.440 --> 00:52:04.070
why you would want to take them both and is
847
00:52:04.489 --> 00:52:07.750
one more necessary than the other. I know that you
848
00:52:07.769 --> 00:52:11.349
love them both and you're certainly have good reason for that,
849
00:52:11.409 --> 00:52:15.630
but just break down the synergy. And then if you
850
00:52:15.670 --> 00:52:19.670
need to really if you had to pick one, prioritize
851
00:52:19.769 --> 00:52:22.090
one over the other, I know ideally you would do both,
852
00:52:22.289 --> 00:52:25.449
but let's get an understanding of that.
853
00:52:25.829 --> 00:52:27.949
Okay. Well, I know a lot of your listeners are
854
00:52:28.650 --> 00:52:32.449
involved with sports. And so I've come up with a
855
00:52:32.510 --> 00:52:35.369
really great analogy, especially for team sports that I think
856
00:52:35.429 --> 00:52:42.710
everyone will understand. Spirulina gives you energy, focus, and allows
857
00:52:42.730 --> 00:52:47.900
you to live optimally, operate optimally, And in sports, especially
858
00:52:47.920 --> 00:52:51.139
team sports, think of that as your playbook for your
859
00:52:51.679 --> 00:52:55.119
offensive team. Your offensive team needs to be out there
860
00:52:56.300 --> 00:52:59.489
making stuff happen. And that's what spirulina does for your body.
861
00:52:59.590 --> 00:53:04.010
It's your offense playbook. Chlorella is quite different. When you
862
00:53:04.050 --> 00:53:07.750
have your defense playbook, it's all about protecting what you have,
863
00:53:08.389 --> 00:53:12.530
ensuring that nothing gets in, like in football or soccer,
864
00:53:12.570 --> 00:53:15.309
no damage. No player breaks through and gets to the
865
00:53:15.389 --> 00:53:19.630
other goal. So that's what chlorella does. It protects you.
866
00:53:20.030 --> 00:53:28.099
It removes any invaders, heavy metals, glyphosate, pesticide, alcohol, lactic acid.
867
00:53:28.159 --> 00:53:31.860
It removes them and protects your body and your immune health.
868
00:53:32.420 --> 00:53:35.699
So think of spirulina as putting as your offense team
869
00:53:36.239 --> 00:53:39.610
and chlorella, your defense team. And on the offense team,
870
00:53:40.670 --> 00:53:43.250
The key is that it's the highest protein in the world.
871
00:53:43.530 --> 00:53:46.409
So it builds your bones, it builds your muscles. It's
872
00:53:46.489 --> 00:53:50.289
loaded with essential fatty acids and your brain is also
873
00:53:50.349 --> 00:53:54.190
mostly fat. It has the very high concentration of superoxidismutase,
874
00:53:54.210 --> 00:53:56.550
which protects your mitochondria. So you get all that energy
875
00:53:56.590 --> 00:53:59.460
to be out there playing in the game of life
876
00:53:59.480 --> 00:54:04.690
because it is the game of life. So spirulina is for... nourishment.
877
00:54:04.949 --> 00:54:09.130
So think of nourishment in and energy and gives you energy.
878
00:54:09.369 --> 00:54:11.650
And you usually want that in the morning, afternoon, and
879
00:54:11.730 --> 00:54:16.710
as a pre-workout. So it's your offense playbook. Chlorella has
880
00:54:16.769 --> 00:54:20.369
the highest chlorophyll in the world. Chlorophyll kills bacteria. It
881
00:54:20.489 --> 00:54:22.449
also has a hard cell wall that is the one
882
00:54:22.489 --> 00:54:26.340
that attaches to all those heavy metals, glyphosate, pesticides. It
883
00:54:26.380 --> 00:54:29.960
has fiber that spirulina does not because it's a bacteria.
884
00:54:30.260 --> 00:54:32.380
It has fiber that feeds the gut biome. So you
885
00:54:32.400 --> 00:54:36.480
can get those short chain fatty acids to help build
886
00:54:36.500 --> 00:54:38.820
your immune system, which by the way, is mostly in
887
00:54:38.840 --> 00:54:44.699
your gut. By the way, also chlorella stimulates bowel movements,
888
00:54:44.739 --> 00:54:47.480
also known as peristalsis. So it's very, it's not just
889
00:54:47.599 --> 00:54:51.340
detoxing through your blood and through your sweat. It's through
890
00:54:51.360 --> 00:54:53.369
your bowel movements because you want to get rid of
891
00:54:53.630 --> 00:54:56.289
what I call the junk in your trunk. Because if
892
00:54:56.329 --> 00:54:58.849
you don't have a regular bowel movement, the things that
893
00:54:58.869 --> 00:55:01.309
are sitting there are things your body didn't want. And
894
00:55:01.510 --> 00:55:04.150
if you don't have a bowel movement, your blood circulates
895
00:55:04.210 --> 00:55:09.570
around and recirculates the toxins. So chlorella will stimulate that
896
00:55:10.050 --> 00:55:12.389
to remove that. And it has the highest tryptophan in
897
00:55:12.429 --> 00:55:15.170
the world, which is a precursor to melatonin, which will
898
00:55:15.230 --> 00:55:18.050
help you get into a deep sleep. So that's why
899
00:55:18.349 --> 00:55:23.030
it's very much a toxins out. Spirulina is nourishment in.
900
00:55:23.550 --> 00:55:26.380
Nourishment in, toxins out. And the reason why you need
901
00:55:26.719 --> 00:55:28.599
both of them is think about it. I used to
902
00:55:28.619 --> 00:55:30.539
live in Boston. I lived in Boston for 35 years.
903
00:55:30.579 --> 00:55:33.960
And during the wintertime, particularly, parking spots are at a premium.
904
00:55:34.380 --> 00:55:36.519
So a lot of people, you know, pay big money
905
00:55:36.559 --> 00:55:38.559
to have a parking spot or they put snow cones
906
00:55:38.619 --> 00:55:42.960
around their spot on the street. But not everybody plays
907
00:55:43.059 --> 00:55:46.780
by the rules. And sometimes someone would take their parking spot. Well,
908
00:55:47.159 --> 00:55:49.260
even if they paid for their parking spot, if somebody
909
00:55:49.300 --> 00:55:52.460
else is in there, they can't park. Toxins are the
910
00:55:52.500 --> 00:55:55.780
same way. the chlorella will pull out the toxins that
911
00:55:55.820 --> 00:55:59.699
are sitting on what's called your receptor cells on your
912
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:03.670
cell walls so that the nutrients can get in. And
913
00:56:03.969 --> 00:56:06.829
if you don't pull out the toxins, it's harder for
914
00:56:06.849 --> 00:56:08.969
the nutrients to get in. And when you have too
915
00:56:08.989 --> 00:56:11.920
many toxins, in the old days when we had radios
916
00:56:11.960 --> 00:56:14.400
in our cars and you were in between stations, you
917
00:56:14.420 --> 00:56:19.389
would get this static sound that sounded like Right. I'm old,
918
00:56:19.429 --> 00:56:21.849
so I can tell you that. So that's what's going
919
00:56:21.929 --> 00:56:23.969
on in your body when you have too many toxins.
920
00:56:24.369 --> 00:56:26.369
The cells can't communicate properly.
921
00:56:26.449 --> 00:56:26.769
They can't.
922
00:56:26.849 --> 00:56:29.750
Nothing works well. So we want to get the toxins
923
00:56:29.889 --> 00:56:32.780
out so the nourishment can go in. So spirulina, think
924
00:56:32.800 --> 00:56:37.679
of spirulina AM. Chlorella is PM. Again, brand names are
925
00:56:37.739 --> 00:56:41.159
energy bits for AM. Chlorella is recovery bits. So spirulina
926
00:56:41.199 --> 00:56:43.920
is an AM algae. Chlorella is a PM because when
927
00:56:43.969 --> 00:56:48.630
you sleep, that's when your body repairs and detoxes. So
928
00:56:48.670 --> 00:56:51.610
we want you to have the best repair possible and
929
00:56:51.659 --> 00:56:54.099
the best detox. Another way to think about it is
930
00:56:54.420 --> 00:56:56.960
spirulina because it heals your mitochondria and you have the
931
00:56:57.079 --> 00:57:00.860
most in your brain. Think of spirulina as brain food.
932
00:57:01.280 --> 00:57:05.039
And because your gut and your immune system is primarily
933
00:57:05.059 --> 00:57:09.239
in your gut and chlorella has fiber and detoxing and
934
00:57:09.260 --> 00:57:14.500
stimulates peristalsis, this is gut health. So spirulina, brain health, chlorella,
935
00:57:15.039 --> 00:57:20.190
gut health. Spirulina, pre-workout because you want energy for your workout.
936
00:57:20.570 --> 00:57:23.769
Chlorella is post-workout because it pulls out the lactic acid
937
00:57:23.789 --> 00:57:27.059
so you won't have DOMS. Also, any athletes you know
938
00:57:27.079 --> 00:57:29.880
when you're pushing yourself hard for a game or a
939
00:57:30.019 --> 00:57:32.940
big race, it's hard on your immune system. So this
940
00:57:32.989 --> 00:57:35.730
will support your immune system. That's why the NHL players,
941
00:57:35.789 --> 00:57:39.150
I think, take 75 chlorella after a game and 75
942
00:57:39.150 --> 00:57:42.369
spirulina before a game. So they get the attention and
943
00:57:42.389 --> 00:57:45.070
the energy for the ice and they get rid of
944
00:57:45.449 --> 00:57:47.510
all the toxins that build up, all the lactic acid.
945
00:57:47.909 --> 00:57:50.070
And let's face it, hockey players like to drink beer.
946
00:57:50.349 --> 00:57:53.730
So this will prevent them from having a hangover before
947
00:57:53.750 --> 00:57:57.250
they get to the next game. So they work really
948
00:57:57.309 --> 00:57:59.349
well together. Now you asked me if you could only
949
00:57:59.389 --> 00:58:01.710
choose one. It really depends on what your goal is.
950
00:58:02.730 --> 00:58:07.119
If you want more energy, If you're facing a chronic
951
00:58:07.510 --> 00:58:10.070
illness or you had one and you want to restore
952
00:58:10.110 --> 00:58:12.750
your mitochondria, if you don't have time to eat lunch,
953
00:58:12.750 --> 00:58:15.750
30 of these would be lunch. You wouldn't be hungry
954
00:58:15.789 --> 00:58:21.900
for hours. So for nourishment, energy, prevention of chronic or
955
00:58:21.960 --> 00:58:27.610
accelerated aging, mitochondria help, spirulina for sure. Slam dunk every
956
00:58:27.650 --> 00:58:29.789
single time. By the way, they're great for kids, pets,
957
00:58:30.329 --> 00:58:35.199
any age group, no drug interactions whatsoever, zero. So I
958
00:58:35.420 --> 00:58:39.659
generally start people with spirulina because also... It doesn't take
959
00:58:39.719 --> 00:58:42.320
long to notice a difference. Within half an hour, you're,
960
00:58:43.119 --> 00:58:45.280
I call it quiet energy. You're not going to, it's
961
00:58:45.360 --> 00:58:47.780
not a, it's not a stimulant. So it doesn't, you
962
00:58:47.800 --> 00:58:50.699
don't get a rush or a crash. You'll just feel fresh.
963
00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:54.179
That's it. But you'll feel fresh. And if you're working out,
964
00:58:54.510 --> 00:58:57.139
you will run longer, lift more, and you won't even
965
00:58:57.199 --> 00:59:00.710
notice it. It's effortless, quiet energy because it's at the
966
00:59:00.929 --> 00:59:03.650
cellular level. It's like putting a log on the fire.
967
00:59:03.769 --> 00:59:07.690
Very steady energy. Stimulants are putting like paper on a fire.
968
00:59:07.730 --> 00:59:09.949
You get a burst and a crash. So that's spiraling.
969
00:59:10.480 --> 00:59:14.500
if you want energy, focus, hunger. Also, if anyone's on
970
00:59:14.539 --> 00:59:17.809
a GLP-1, please take this because this will protect your
971
00:59:18.190 --> 00:59:20.929
muscles from muscle wasting. Even if you're on weight loss,
972
00:59:21.349 --> 00:59:23.730
this will satisfy your hunger, stop cravings, give you all
973
00:59:23.750 --> 00:59:26.809
the nourishment. There's 40 vitamins and minerals and highest protein
974
00:59:26.829 --> 00:59:29.389
in the world, three times more protein. then steak. It's
975
00:59:29.409 --> 00:59:33.989
a complete protein, has 18 of the 20 aminos. Chlorella, however,
976
00:59:34.150 --> 00:59:37.050
if you are worried about toxins, if you're doing a detox,
977
00:59:37.429 --> 00:59:40.139
if this is your biggest issue, or if you're constipated,
978
00:59:40.420 --> 00:59:42.559
and let's face it, people are on medications, eating too
979
00:59:42.579 --> 00:59:47.599
much dairy, they're traveling, they're stressed, they're usually constipated, that's chlorella.
980
00:59:48.019 --> 00:59:51.980
Spirulina will not help with bowel movements, only chlorella. So
981
00:59:52.219 --> 00:59:58.190
chlorella is for detox, post-workout, um, If you're having, they
982
00:59:58.230 --> 01:00:00.190
both help with anemia because this will build your blood,
983
01:00:00.230 --> 01:00:04.269
but this will, the chlorophyll chemical composition is identical to
984
01:00:04.309 --> 01:00:06.349
your blood. So this is really good. So this is
985
01:00:06.369 --> 01:00:10.090
very much a cleansing, detoxing algae. We've had people in
986
01:00:10.690 --> 01:00:13.550
Vegas tell us it saved their bachelorette party because they
987
01:00:13.570 --> 01:00:16.150
took it and they felt great the next day. So
988
01:00:16.289 --> 01:00:20.789
this is very, very powerful for health purposes. This is
989
01:00:20.869 --> 01:00:27.239
for nourishment, mitochondria purposes. Um, so quantity wise, uh, 10
990
01:00:27.239 --> 01:00:31.380
spirulina and 10 chlorella, either together or individually, uh, we'd
991
01:00:31.400 --> 01:00:33.920
sell the, the products in different shapes and sizes. We
992
01:00:33.940 --> 01:00:36.309
have little pouches of 30 or we have the best
993
01:00:36.369 --> 01:00:39.550
value are the large bags that come with a thousand tablets.
994
01:00:40.130 --> 01:00:42.610
So if you bought a thousand, a bag, um, with
995
01:00:42.650 --> 01:00:45.489
a thousand tablets and we have a 20% discount code
996
01:00:45.510 --> 01:00:50.639
for your listeners. Um, it's, it's Jameli, um, 10 tablets
997
01:00:50.659 --> 01:00:53.550
work out to $ 1 a day. $ 1 a day to
998
01:00:53.590 --> 01:00:56.769
protect your mitochondria or restore them, to give energy, to
999
01:00:57.190 --> 01:01:00.889
satisfy your hunger. I mean, it's pretty sweet. Even coffee
1000
01:01:00.949 --> 01:01:05.929
costs you $ 5, so it's really affordable. However, if you
1001
01:01:05.969 --> 01:01:11.000
have a health condition or if you want lunch or
1002
01:01:11.199 --> 01:01:12.820
people are busy, they don't have time to eat, this
1003
01:01:12.880 --> 01:01:19.090
would be lunch. 30 tablets would be your therapeutic athletic quantity.
1004
01:01:19.789 --> 01:01:24.050
And if you're doing any biohacks at all, red light, sauna,
1005
01:01:24.409 --> 01:01:27.380
cold plunges, cryo, and I encourage you to do all
1006
01:01:27.409 --> 01:01:30.300
of them or some of them, always take the spirulina
1007
01:01:30.340 --> 01:01:34.559
before because it gets absorbed so much faster. And even
1008
01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:37.139
if it's just 15 and then take 15 later on
1009
01:01:37.159 --> 01:01:40.960
in the day, and then take the chlorella afterwards because
1010
01:01:41.300 --> 01:01:44.139
Spirulina will get into your body so quickly, it will
1011
01:01:44.219 --> 01:01:47.860
nourish the cells while you're having your biohack, your hack,
1012
01:01:47.929 --> 01:01:50.969
whether it's the cryo or whatever, or cold plunge. And
1013
01:01:50.989 --> 01:01:53.889
then chlorella is the cleanup crew. So it will go
1014
01:01:53.929 --> 01:01:56.150
around and pick up all the toxins that were released
1015
01:01:56.489 --> 01:02:02.400
during the sauna or sweating or the cold plunge. 10
1016
01:02:02.469 --> 01:02:08.239
for just basic nutrition, 10 chlorella for basic immune health,
1017
01:02:08.639 --> 01:02:13.460
but 30 for nourishment and optimal benefits. And same with chlorella,
1018
01:02:13.460 --> 01:02:17.880
30 for proper detox. Now, I will tell you, when
1019
01:02:17.920 --> 01:02:23.539
you take these, any quantity, especially spirulina, 40 vitamins and minerals.
1020
01:02:23.599 --> 01:02:25.139
I mean, you can't argue with that. You can get
1021
01:02:25.199 --> 01:02:27.760
rid of about six of your other supplements. Your multi,
1022
01:02:28.119 --> 01:02:32.570
please stop taking fish oil. It's probably rancid. Um, when you, uh, anyways,
1023
01:02:33.070 --> 01:02:35.150
collagen powder, you don't need that because this has more
1024
01:02:35.190 --> 01:02:39.170
collagen than collagen powder, uh, a biotin, a CoQ10, uh,
1025
01:02:39.349 --> 01:02:42.409
it's unbelievable how this will replace a lot of your supplements.
1026
01:02:42.889 --> 01:02:46.650
And guys, listen up when you take chlorella, particularly maybe spirulina,
1027
01:02:46.670 --> 01:02:49.769
but definitely chlorella, you never have to eat another vegetable
1028
01:02:49.829 --> 01:02:52.179
again in your life. If you don't want to, why
1029
01:02:52.199 --> 01:02:56.349
do we eat vegetables? The fiber, this has fiber, uh, for, um,
1030
01:02:57.130 --> 01:02:59.989
Chlorophyll and phytonutrients. This is the highest chlorophyll in the world.
1031
01:02:59.989 --> 01:03:02.369
500 times more than arugula. Nothing in the world with
1032
01:03:02.389 --> 01:03:06.969
more chlorophyll than arugula than chlorella. And for bowel movements
1033
01:03:07.349 --> 01:03:10.360
because of the fiber. This does all of that. All
1034
01:03:10.380 --> 01:03:14.480
of that. So people, you know, kids and men in particular,
1035
01:03:14.539 --> 01:03:16.940
they jump up and down. Are you kidding me? I
1036
01:03:16.960 --> 01:03:18.880
never have to eat vegetables again. But you have to
1037
01:03:18.920 --> 01:03:22.650
take it every day. And in both cases, your grocery
1038
01:03:22.690 --> 01:03:26.769
bills will decrease, your supplements bills will decrease, the time
1039
01:03:26.789 --> 01:03:30.909
that you require for preparing, getting proper nourishment, because not
1040
01:03:30.929 --> 01:03:33.929
everybody has time to cook a proper meal. And carnivores,
1041
01:03:34.010 --> 01:03:36.940
by the way, these are for you too. Why? Because
1042
01:03:36.960 --> 01:03:40.260
there are no lectins or oxalates in algae. Lectins and
1043
01:03:40.340 --> 01:03:44.940
oxalates are in plants in very high quantity in things
1044
01:03:45.440 --> 01:03:49.429
like Kale, please stop eating kale. Spinach, please stop eating kale.
1045
01:03:49.550 --> 01:03:52.250
Because what they do is the plants develop these lectins
1046
01:03:52.289 --> 01:03:56.329
and oxalates to protect themselves from predators like bugs and animals.
1047
01:03:57.110 --> 01:03:59.650
Because they upset their stomachs too, just like they upset ours.
1048
01:03:59.690 --> 01:04:02.800
They can puncture holes in your stomach line. Well, algae
1049
01:04:02.820 --> 01:04:05.179
has never been a land plant. It came from the ocean.
1050
01:04:05.699 --> 01:04:08.199
That's why I have an ocean on the, I designed
1051
01:04:08.219 --> 01:04:11.360
all the packaging. So no lectins or oxalates. Even Dr.
1052
01:04:12.139 --> 01:04:16.550
Stephen Gundry applauds spirulina and us. for that reason. And
1053
01:04:16.590 --> 01:04:19.650
we want our carnivore friends to still get the benefits
1054
01:04:19.869 --> 01:04:24.570
of the chlorophyll, which builds your blood. It's just that simple. So,
1055
01:04:24.769 --> 01:04:28.230
and also to get the superoxidase. You can't get superoxidase
1056
01:04:28.869 --> 01:04:31.750
from anywhere else. It just is, it just is that way.
1057
01:04:32.250 --> 01:04:36.449
So whether you're vegan, carnivore, you know, low carb, low carb,
1058
01:04:36.489 --> 01:04:39.360
low cal, this works for you in every, I can't
1059
01:04:39.400 --> 01:04:43.099
find a single downside with the exception that maybe it
1060
01:04:43.119 --> 01:04:46.530
doesn't taste so good. So most people swallow the spirulina.
1061
01:04:46.570 --> 01:04:49.170
But the chlorella tastes great with pistachio nuts or sea
1062
01:04:49.210 --> 01:04:54.840
salt or macadamia nuts. Really terrific snap. So nourishment in,
1063
01:04:54.980 --> 01:04:58.280
toxins out. Nourishment in for spirulina, toxins out with chlorella.
1064
01:04:58.820 --> 01:05:02.949
AM for the spirulina. PM for the chlorella. Pre-workout for spirulina.
1065
01:05:03.289 --> 01:05:06.269
Post-workout for chlorella. And depending on whether you want focus
1066
01:05:06.289 --> 01:05:10.070
and energy, spirulina would be my go-to or for mitochondrial health.
1067
01:05:10.460 --> 01:05:14.650
And chlorella is your key algae for detox and immune health.
1068
01:05:15.010 --> 01:05:20.030
So you also have beauty bits, vitality bits listed on
1069
01:05:20.050 --> 01:05:23.349
your website. So what's the difference for those for people
1070
01:05:23.389 --> 01:05:26.119
listening so they understand when they look at that?
1071
01:05:26.340 --> 01:05:30.719
So I started the company, as I mentioned, to help
1072
01:05:30.739 --> 01:05:33.639
my sister heal from breast cancer. Her oncologist, which is
1073
01:05:33.699 --> 01:05:37.239
a cancer specialist, told her to change her diet to
1074
01:05:37.260 --> 01:05:39.349
an alkaline diet because it would be important for her healing.
1075
01:05:39.389 --> 01:05:42.010
So This wasn't her neighbor or her yoga instructor. It
1076
01:05:42.050 --> 01:05:46.050
was her cancer specialist. So my sister followed her directions,
1077
01:05:46.090 --> 01:05:48.070
but they didn't tell her what an alkaline diet was.
1078
01:05:48.110 --> 01:05:50.750
So I helped her figure that out. Bottom line, women's
1079
01:05:50.769 --> 01:05:53.090
health has been very important to me. And so when
1080
01:05:53.130 --> 01:05:56.150
I started the company, I noticed that women just weren't
1081
01:05:56.190 --> 01:05:59.980
buying the spirulina. And my friends said, well, you got
1082
01:06:00.000 --> 01:06:01.440
to make it pink and give it a cute name.
1083
01:06:01.519 --> 01:06:06.280
And because it heals your skin, your hair, your skin
1084
01:06:06.320 --> 01:06:08.619
and hair and your nails are all protein. They're different
1085
01:06:08.639 --> 01:06:11.320
types of protein. There's nothing in the world with more
1086
01:06:11.360 --> 01:06:15.489
protein than spirulina. And also the free radicals protect your
1087
01:06:15.510 --> 01:06:18.670
skin because you get free radical damage everywhere, not just
1088
01:06:18.730 --> 01:06:22.090
in your mitochondria, in your organs, but also in your skin.
1089
01:06:22.130 --> 01:06:24.530
Your skin is your biggest organ, by the way. Um,
1090
01:06:24.849 --> 01:06:28.269
so I made a prettier version of spirulina and called
1091
01:06:28.309 --> 01:06:33.429
it beauty bits, but it's absolutely identical to energy bits. But, um,
1092
01:06:33.900 --> 01:06:36.400
I figured if car companies can have a blue car
1093
01:06:36.460 --> 01:06:38.880
and a red car because different people like different colors,
1094
01:06:39.440 --> 01:06:43.719
I can... And you mentioned earlier, I refer to my...
1095
01:06:43.679 --> 01:06:45.559
Or maybe you didn't. I refer to my brands as
1096
01:06:45.599 --> 01:06:49.820
my children. So I call Spirulina Energy Bits and Beauty
1097
01:06:49.860 --> 01:06:53.340
Bits my twins. They are absolutely identical. I'm not trying
1098
01:06:53.360 --> 01:06:57.079
to trick anybody, but women do love the packaging of
1099
01:06:57.199 --> 01:06:59.610
the Beauty Bits. But it does exactly the same thing
1100
01:07:00.110 --> 01:07:03.400
as the Energy Bits. And then for some people... who
1101
01:07:03.760 --> 01:07:07.460
just want simplicity. They like both of them and they
1102
01:07:07.480 --> 01:07:08.960
don't want to have to think, oh, the blue one
1103
01:07:08.980 --> 01:07:11.179
in the morning and the green one at night. So
1104
01:07:11.380 --> 01:07:13.420
to make it easy for them, we created a brand
1105
01:07:13.480 --> 01:07:17.550
called Vitality Bits, which is a blended tablet. So it's
1106
01:07:17.550 --> 01:07:22.010
50% spirulina, 50% chlorella. It's all mixed into one tablet.
1107
01:07:22.489 --> 01:07:25.230
And For people who are traveling, we find people who
1108
01:07:25.250 --> 01:07:29.590
are older just want simplicity. So they like that one.
1109
01:07:29.829 --> 01:07:31.690
I have a funny story. A friend of mine who's
1110
01:07:31.829 --> 01:07:34.389
actually a heart surgeon and his wife is a chiropractor.
1111
01:07:34.789 --> 01:07:36.670
They sent me a really cute video a while ago.
1112
01:07:37.070 --> 01:07:40.670
They were babysitting their neighbor's raccoon. I didn't know people
1113
01:07:40.710 --> 01:07:44.449
had pet raccoons, but this was a baby raccoon about
1114
01:07:44.469 --> 01:07:47.909
the size of a little baby kitten. And this particular
1115
01:07:47.949 --> 01:07:51.190
family loves the fatality bits. So they showed me a video.
1116
01:07:51.230 --> 01:07:53.849
They put a few little tablets on the floor and
1117
01:07:53.889 --> 01:07:56.809
this little baby raccoon just scattered up to them and
1118
01:07:56.869 --> 01:07:59.909
gobbled the tablets down, which I thought was pretty funny,
1119
01:07:59.929 --> 01:08:02.050
but it got even funnier because then they put the
1120
01:08:02.090 --> 01:08:05.280
whole bag on the floor with it open. And that
1121
01:08:05.360 --> 01:08:09.000
raccoon just went right into the bag and we never
1122
01:08:09.019 --> 01:08:15.099
saw it again. It's probably still eating the tablets. So,
1123
01:08:15.809 --> 01:08:18.180
Even the animals know that this stuff is good for them.
1124
01:08:18.399 --> 01:08:20.640
And honestly, they're smarter than we are in many cases.
1125
01:08:20.720 --> 01:08:26.060
So I just want to let people know that algae
1126
01:08:26.100 --> 01:08:28.199
is here for you. I even wrote a little booklet
1127
01:08:28.239 --> 01:08:31.159
called The Algae Love Story because algae will love your
1128
01:08:31.199 --> 01:08:36.579
body back to health. And we have them available. Make
1129
01:08:36.600 --> 01:08:38.199
sure we send what you want, Dylan, if you haven't
1130
01:08:38.239 --> 01:08:41.619
got one. Because everybody needs love and love is nourishing.
1131
01:08:41.720 --> 01:08:45.020
So is algae. Love is proven. So is algae. Love
1132
01:08:45.039 --> 01:08:48.420
gives you life. so does algae. Love is healing, so
1133
01:08:48.479 --> 01:08:52.600
is algae. Love is energizing, so is algae. It's effortless,
1134
01:08:52.739 --> 01:08:55.229
so is algae. So um i know i'm a little
1135
01:08:55.850 --> 01:08:59.949
a little um obsessed with it but uh once you
1136
01:08:59.979 --> 01:09:02.399
start feeling great and and i tell people as you
1137
01:09:02.409 --> 01:09:04.779
get older you have two choices you can get bitter
1138
01:09:05.800 --> 01:09:08.659
or you can get better right and i want to
1139
01:09:08.699 --> 01:09:09.579
help you get better.
1140
01:09:11.100 --> 01:09:13.859
You're full every time i've ever seen you at every
1141
01:09:13.920 --> 01:09:16.390
event every time i've talked to you you're bowl of
1142
01:09:16.470 --> 01:09:19.140
energy and and it's not easy it's not i don't
1143
01:09:19.159 --> 01:09:21.960
care who you are i mean you get amped up
1144
01:09:22.000 --> 01:09:25.420
to talk about this but it's just your personality in
1145
01:09:25.460 --> 01:09:28.279
general and that's a testament especially as you've gotten older
1146
01:09:28.859 --> 01:09:31.640
i'm sure you feel much better as you've learned about
1147
01:09:31.680 --> 01:09:35.819
this and implemented into your daily routine and you know
1148
01:09:35.859 --> 01:09:40.060
it it shows and if that's not proof enough I
1149
01:09:40.159 --> 01:09:43.579
think that it is the results that people have seen
1150
01:09:43.619 --> 01:09:45.699
that I've seen talked about and the growth that you've
1151
01:09:45.739 --> 01:09:48.880
had and the ability that you've had to convey this
1152
01:09:48.960 --> 01:09:51.260
message that I've seen. That's what drew me to you
1153
01:09:51.319 --> 01:09:53.039
in the first place was when I saw you talking
1154
01:09:53.060 --> 01:09:53.899
with Dr. Gundry.
1155
01:09:54.220 --> 01:09:54.439
Yeah.
1156
01:09:54.779 --> 01:09:57.239
And that's how I even found you. And then I
1157
01:09:57.279 --> 01:09:59.479
told you that when I found you and it's been
1158
01:09:59.520 --> 01:10:02.050
a pleasure and blessing to know you and I want
1159
01:10:02.069 --> 01:10:05.250
to continue to learn from you and platform you as
1160
01:10:05.329 --> 01:10:07.510
I can. And I want to take these again. My
1161
01:10:07.569 --> 01:10:09.149
wife stole all of mine last time.
1162
01:10:09.250 --> 01:10:11.149
So we're going to get you a big supply. Don't
1163
01:10:11.170 --> 01:10:11.470
you worry.
1164
01:10:11.489 --> 01:10:14.069
That would be great. It would be great. I'd love
1165
01:10:14.090 --> 01:10:16.340
to be a big proponent of these for you. And
1166
01:10:16.989 --> 01:10:20.659
I believe in them as well. I believe in cellular health.
1167
01:10:20.779 --> 01:10:25.180
I believe in mitochondria health more than ever. And, you know,
1168
01:10:25.220 --> 01:10:28.239
I believe in your message and I want to make
1169
01:10:28.319 --> 01:10:32.170
sure that people can really understand and see what the
1170
01:10:32.250 --> 01:10:36.409
differences between somebody that's passionate and knows and believes and
1171
01:10:36.470 --> 01:10:38.529
lives it as aside from somebody just trying to make
1172
01:10:38.569 --> 01:10:40.670
a quick buck off of everybody. And like I said
1173
01:10:40.689 --> 01:10:44.479
at the beginning, and I want to really hammer down now,
1174
01:10:45.180 --> 01:10:47.859
you are the epitome of that. And I respect the
1175
01:10:48.079 --> 01:10:50.439
hell out of that. And that's why I always have
1176
01:10:50.600 --> 01:10:53.199
time for you. And I always have love for you
1177
01:10:53.319 --> 01:10:54.920
and we'll do whatever I can to help you.
1178
01:10:55.670 --> 01:10:57.770
Oh, thank you. That's very, very sweet of you. And it,
1179
01:10:57.909 --> 01:10:59.810
and it takes a lot of us to get the
1180
01:10:59.890 --> 01:11:02.850
truth out. So I'm just grateful that I was, um,
1181
01:11:03.350 --> 01:11:05.369
blessed to be able to be on this path and
1182
01:11:05.430 --> 01:11:08.649
find people like you that can move it out there because, um,
1183
01:11:08.810 --> 01:11:12.710
there's a lot of disinformation or just, um, lack of awareness.
1184
01:11:12.890 --> 01:11:15.050
And so, but I tell people, you know, we didn't
1185
01:11:15.329 --> 01:11:18.710
know about Chia or Kiwa or bone broth or a
1186
01:11:19.130 --> 01:11:20.850
lot of these things that have been around in other
1187
01:11:20.869 --> 01:11:25.439
countries for centuries. So, um, algae has been taken every
1188
01:11:25.479 --> 01:11:27.649
day in Asia for the last 60 years. It was
1189
01:11:27.689 --> 01:11:31.750
taken 250 years ago by the Aztecs. It just needed
1190
01:11:31.789 --> 01:11:35.090
to be explained. Um, and that's, that's sort of what
1191
01:11:35.149 --> 01:11:37.489
I'm doing. And, and, and it, you needed to have
1192
01:11:37.529 --> 01:11:40.619
a safe source. So that's what we do at energy bits. We,
1193
01:11:40.760 --> 01:11:41.500
we give you the best.
1194
01:11:42.619 --> 01:11:46.939
Well, it takes voices and it takes people that have
1195
01:11:47.000 --> 01:11:50.920
the right motive. And, and, that's what it's going to
1196
01:11:50.979 --> 01:11:54.100
continue to be. And that's why it's important that we
1197
01:11:54.119 --> 01:11:56.680
do this and we educate people and we keep doing
1198
01:11:56.720 --> 01:11:58.939
it over and over and over. And that's why it
1199
01:11:58.979 --> 01:12:02.119
was important to have you on again to reiterate and
1200
01:12:02.739 --> 01:12:06.319
to learn more because things change. We learn more over time. That's,
1201
01:12:07.020 --> 01:12:10.859
you know, some data, some data stays the same, some
1202
01:12:11.149 --> 01:12:14.409
changes and that's science and that's the beauty of it. Right.
1203
01:12:14.449 --> 01:12:19.489
So you, you don't, you don't not change throughout your
1204
01:12:19.529 --> 01:12:22.489
life and get better and improve. So that's what studying
1205
01:12:22.510 --> 01:12:26.399
and learning is an implementation, right? So I'm sure that
1206
01:12:26.520 --> 01:12:28.699
we will just continue to do this every few months
1207
01:12:28.760 --> 01:12:32.140
as we learn more and we'll, we'll continue to grow
1208
01:12:32.180 --> 01:12:34.899
together and educate. So I want to make sure, and
1209
01:12:35.279 --> 01:12:37.819
I'll link everything and we'll put my, once again, my
1210
01:12:37.880 --> 01:12:41.000
coupon code is Jim Ellie for 20% off, which is
1211
01:12:41.159 --> 01:12:44.460
a very nice savings, but tell everybody that, Yes.
1212
01:12:44.479 --> 01:12:50.680
They go to energybits.com, E-N-E-R-G-Y-B-I-T-S, to use the code. And
1213
01:12:50.699 --> 01:12:54.340
it works on everything, all brands, all the time. So
1214
01:12:55.039 --> 01:12:57.890
don't panic. It's not just a one-timer. It's all the time.
1215
01:12:58.350 --> 01:13:01.350
And then we're very active on social media. Instagram handle
1216
01:13:01.449 --> 01:13:04.729
is energybits is the main one. I'm starting to do
1217
01:13:04.770 --> 01:13:08.649
more lecturing around the country. So I've even created my
1218
01:13:08.710 --> 01:13:11.489
own website, Catherine Arnst. And if you just want to
1219
01:13:11.510 --> 01:13:14.380
learn more about me, We don't sell anything there. It's
1220
01:13:14.399 --> 01:13:19.119
just about me. But yeah, energybits.com is the main event.
1221
01:13:19.439 --> 01:13:24.939
And we love educating people. I've recorded over 200 videos,
1222
01:13:25.659 --> 01:13:30.479
one-minute videos, teaching people about brain health, gut health, heart health,
1223
01:13:31.340 --> 01:13:33.640
whatever it takes. And some of them, we have some
1224
01:13:33.659 --> 01:13:37.590
videos on TikTok. They've had 3 million views. My interview
1225
01:13:37.630 --> 01:13:41.529
with Dave Asprey went viral. It's had 1.3 million downloads.
1226
01:13:43.270 --> 01:13:47.399
apparently somebody likes the science. So I'm very excited about that.
1227
01:13:47.520 --> 01:13:51.380
So anyways, I'm committed to this. This is my path.
1228
01:13:52.020 --> 01:13:54.399
So I tell people I'm married to algae.
1229
01:13:56.550 --> 01:14:00.170
Oh, my biggest partner is Timeline that I work with.
1230
01:14:00.229 --> 01:14:02.869
And that was the reason for the study and implementing
1231
01:14:02.949 --> 01:14:07.170
these two together. I see like synergy that is just amazing.
1232
01:14:07.229 --> 01:14:10.890
And when you can do that for yourself, And have
1233
01:14:11.069 --> 01:14:13.770
that kind of broad spectrum and understanding of how to
1234
01:14:13.829 --> 01:14:16.829
live longer in the right way and have the other
1235
01:14:16.890 --> 01:14:22.859
multitudes of benefits. Gold. So gold. And it's very, very
1236
01:14:22.939 --> 01:14:25.159
particular on what I put my time and effort in.
1237
01:14:25.199 --> 01:14:27.640
And this is something that I will continue to do
1238
01:14:27.699 --> 01:14:31.199
along with you. So thank you. And I will link
1239
01:14:31.279 --> 01:14:34.079
everything in the description. You're amazing. We love you and
1240
01:14:34.100 --> 01:14:35.000
we appreciate you.
1241
01:14:35.020 --> 01:14:37.859
I love you too. So thank you. LG loves you.
1242
01:14:40.680 --> 01:14:43.340
As always, it's a pleasure, Catherine, and I know we'll
1243
01:14:43.539 --> 01:14:47.399
continue to do this. So I appreciate it. And everybody,
1244
01:14:47.460 --> 01:14:50.159
I hope that you gained even more knowledge from this
1245
01:14:50.239 --> 01:14:53.409
and understanding and will implement energy bits into your routine.
1246
01:14:53.649 --> 01:14:56.850
So stay tuned for plenty more to come. Dylan Gemelli
1247
01:14:56.890 --> 01:14:58.810
and Catherine Arnston signing off.
