Episode notes
Metabolic Disease Is Cellular Starvation
- Metabolic disease means cells can't access fuel despite excess circulating nutrients, causing energy failure at the cellular level.
- This cellular starvation explains complications like Alzheimer's, blindness, neuropathy, and organ failure.
Metabolic Risk Is Nearly Universal
- Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease affect roughly one in four people in the U.S.
- Harvard data shows 93% of U.S. adults have at least one abnormal metabolic risk factor.
Mitochondria Are At The Root
- The root of metabolic disease is failing mitochondria, the cell's energy factories, losing functional capacity.
- Restoring mitochondrial function is central to reversing metabolic conditions.
