Energy Resistance Principle in Life, Healing & Disease | Martin Picard & Nirosha Murugan | 260
Martin Picard, a mitochondrial psychobiologist from Columbia, and Nirosha Murugan, a biophysicist, dive deep into the intriguing Energy Resistance Principle (ERP). They discuss how mitochondria transform electron flow and the delicate balance needed for health. Too much resistance leads to aging and disease, highlighting the role of insulin resistance as a protective adaptation. They also connect energy dynamics to psychiatric illnesses, suggesting that interventions can optimize health by redistributing energy flow. Their insights into biology based on energy flow offer a fresh perspective on health and healing.
