Did you know, there's a superfood that's been around for billions of years that could transform your health? In this episode of The Longevity Podcast, I am joined by Catharine Arnston, creator of ENERGYbits, to discuss this superfood and its benefits for longevity.
We discuss algae, specifically spirulina and chlorella, as a nutrient-dense food source, how it can fit into many diets, and the fact that it is highly bioavailable and quickly absorbed by the body, providing nourishment and balancing blood sugar levels. We also dive into algae’s benefits for brain health, detoxification, gut microbiome, and the immune system. Overall, we discuss algae's ability to enhance the function of mitochondria, and the importance of choosing high-quality algae products.
Catharine Arnston started ENERGYbits® after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal. It took Catharine ten years to bring algae into the mainstream and build ENERGYbits® into a national company.
