Hyperbaric and Mitochondrial Therapies

In this week’s episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski sits down with Kashif Khan, founder of The DNA Company and author of The DNA Way. Kashif has pioneered the field of functional genomics, using DNA as a roadmap to optimize prevention, performance, and longevity.

 

Through his own healing journey and years of research, Kashif reveals how our unique genetic blueprint influences everything from mitochondrial capacity and detox pathways to hormone balance, brain health, and even how we age.

 

Expect a fascinating deep dive into the science of DNA, personalized health, and practical tools you can use today to align your lifestyle with your genetics.

Key Topics Covered

• Kashif’s Origin Story – How a personal health crisis and his mother’s recovery from arthritis inspired him to explore functional genomics.

• Functional vs. Traditional Genetics – Why standard DNA reports are often unhelpful, and how functional genomics provides actionable insights.

• The Science of Aging – How telomeres, oxidative stress, and gene expression drive aging — and why humans are genetically designed to live 120 years.

• Nutrition & Genes – How your DNA determines whether you thrive on keto, plant-based diets, or specific nutrient forms like retinol vs. beta carotene.

• Detoxification & Cellular Health – Why impaired pathways for glutathione, methylation, and mitochondrial function accelerate disease risk.

• Hormones & Healthspan – Genetic factors in estrogen/testosterone balance, women’s hormone health, libido, fertility, and even body type.

• Heart Rate Variability & Longevity – HRV as a powerful biomarker for parasympathetic health, metabolic reset, and mitochondrial resilience.

• Cardiovascular & Mitochondrial Health – How genetics impact endothelial repair, cholesterol use, and red light therapy’s role in energy optimization.

• Practical Genomic Strategies – Supplements, diet, and lifestyle hacks that align with your DNA to improve resilience, energy, and long-term vitality.

Key Quotes

 

Kashif Khan:

• “Functional genomics isn’t about telling you what disease you might get — it’s about showing you which pathways are broken and how to fix them.”

• “Aging is simply your DNA instruction manual becoming illegible. Protect your DNA, and you protect your youth.”

• “You don’t need to add 50 years to your life. You were already designed for 120 — you just need to stop taking years away.”

 

Dr. Mike Belkowski:

• “The practical applications of genomics are what excite me most — this isn’t just data, it’s a blueprint for vitality.”

• “Listening to you break down my DNA felt like holding up a mirror — it explained things I didn’t even know about myself.”
