Episode notes
Bioenergetic View of Health
- Chronic illnesses are primarily energy production problems at the cellular level, especially in the mitochondria.
- This "bioenergetic view" sees energy production as the key determinant of organ function, feelings, and overall health.
PUFAs and Mitochondrial Dysfunction
- Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) like linoleic acid accumulate in cell membranes, including mitochondrial membranes.
- This accumulation disrupts energy production and contributes to chronic illness.
PUFA-Induced Proton Leak
- PUFAs in mitochondrial membranes increase permeability to ions, disrupting the proton gradient essential for ATP production.
- This inefficiency leads to less energy, more oxidative stress, and ultimately contributes to aging.
