The Effect of EMF Sensitivity on the Brain

There are numerous studies where they've shown that people who claim to have symptoms from Wi-Fi cannot tell the difference. And we also incorporate into this story of EMFs what are our narratives, our beliefs, about stress. We need to recognize the potential for our self-created no-sibo effect to be worse than the actual true biological effects of that stress.

Episode notes

We’ve all heard mitochondria described as “the powerhouse of the cell”. But what we know now is that mitochondria have a second role beyond being energy generators, and are of central importance in human physiology.

Today we’re discussing everything you need to know about mitochondria, specifically how the story of energy and the story of aging are very much centered around the health of our mitochondria.

I’m joined by Ari Whitten, M.S., the founder of The Energy Blueprint. We take a deep dive into how mitochondria work, including the second role they play as environmental sensors. If you struggle with chronic fatigue, you’ll want to tune in to learn how mitochondria is impacting your energy levels, and what you can do about it.

Ari Whitten, M.S. is the best-selling author of The Ultimate Guide To Red Light Therapy, and Eat For Energy: How To Beat Fatigue, and Supercharge Your Mitochondria For All-Day Energy. He has a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a Corrective Exercise Specialist and Performance Enhancement Specialist, has completed extensive graduate training in Clinical Psychology, and holds a Master of Science degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine.

What we discuss:

00:02:46 - How to start with supporting your mitochondria

00:11:28 - How mitochondria can impact your energy levels

00:18:27 - Why losing mitochondria is not a natural product of aging

00:22:22 - Ways to maintain mitochondria

00:25:20 - Melatonin production

00:30:06 - Light exposure and melatonin production

00:41:33 - Supporting your mitochondria at the foundational level

00:47:57 - EMF sensitivity

00:56:04 - The blueprint to optimizing your mitochondria

01:02:49 - The most powerful supplements for optimizing your mitochondria

Key Takeaways:

All the things that boost our mitochondrial capacity for energy production are also going to translate into increased longevity and resistance to disease.
The loss of mitochondria is not a natural product of aging, but is the result of modern lifestyles. Challenging your mitochondria by living a more active lifestyle will help support and rebuild your mitochondrial networks as you get older.
Mitochondria have a second role beyond their role as energy generators, and that is as environmental sensors. Not only are the mitochondria actually producing energy, they are making the decision on whether or not to produce that energy.
