Ep. 399 Alkaline Living: How Spirulina & Chlorella Transform Health with Dr. Catharine Arnston

I am delighted to reconnect with Dr. Catharine Arnston today. She is the founder, CEO, and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits. She last joined me on Episode 226 of the podcast. 

In our conversation, we dive into the importance of an alkaline lifestyle, looking at how our modern-day lifestyles expose us to toxins while contributing to soil depletion and poor-quality food. We discuss the benefits of spirulina, the effects of mitochondrial dysfunction in perimenopause and menopause, the role of free radicals and antioxidants, and the research currently being done on Me Screen, spirulina, and chlorella. We cover the differences between chlorella and spirulina, explaining how chlorella impacts the immune system and gut microbiome and how it is beneficial for cleansing, toning, healing, and overcoming hangovers. We explain how algae can help us reverse our biological or chronologic age, Catharine shares some tips for aging gracefully, and we also create a mini-course on algae. 

I know you will love and appreciate today’s invaluable conversation with Dr. Catharine Arnston.
