The Mitochondrial Theory of Aging & the Top 10 Health Benefits of the Third Pillar of The Mitochondrial Triad
The Red Light Report
Exploring the Diverse Health Benefits of a Potent Substance
This chapter delves into the remarkable health benefits of a specific substance, touching on its role in mental clarity, tumor inhibition, hair growth stimulation, and strong antioxidant properties. It discusses its ability to combat free radicals, radiation, chemicals, UV rays, and heavy metals, emphasizing its therapeutic effects on multiple health issues.
For decades, the primary thesis for why we age was The Free Radical Theory of aging. However, this doesn't hold up in instances where someone consistently exercises (and, thus, produces more ATP that inherently produces more of the natural byproduct of free radicals) that leads to health- and longevity-promoting benefits. That's where The Mitochondrial Theory of Aging emerges and is currently the most respected postulation on why we age. However, the first rendition of this theory still included free radicals as a main culprit for aging; this was remedied in the second version, which removed free radicals as the central causation for aging and suggested the main source was in the numerous mechanisms lying within the mitochondria. Ultimately, this is the genesis that fuels the importance of The Mitochondrial Triad.
After a thorough discussion on The Mitochondrial Theory of Aging, I cover the third pillar of The Mitochondrial Triad! I dive into the top 10 health benefits and numerous other health benefits that have been proven out in the research. Disclaimer: I never say the actual name of the third pillar and refer to it in this portion of the episode as, "the thing." Yes, I know... very descriptive. But you didn't think I would actually reveal it yet, did you?! We'll save that for next week's episode...
I hope you enjoy the information in today's solosode. Please share this episode with family, friends and colleagues if you find the content especially interesting and/or impactful.
As always, light up your health!
