Episode notes
Energy Delivery Is The Core Problem
- Energy delivery mechanisms sit at the root of almost all pathological conditions and determine resilience to dementia, cancer, and heart disease.
- Prioritize diagnosing and fixing energy delivery before chasing other diagnoses.
Fix The Fuel First
- Treat the body like a car: fix fuel (diet), oxygen (breathing), mitochondria (engine), thyroid (accelerator) and adrenals (gearbox).
- Start with diet and gut function because they are the foundation for all other interventions.
Lower Carbs, Favor Fat-Based Fuel
- Reduce sugar and carbohydrates and adopt a paleo-ketogenic or carnivore-style diet to reduce mitochondrial damage and inflammation.
- Use simple rules: animal foods (meat, fish, eggs, butter) then add low-toxicity green veg if tolerated.
