The life of a CEO can be beyond crazy, hectic, stressful, rewarding, empowering, creative, fulfilling, chaotic.... let's just call it an emotional roller coaster! As we learned from Don Bailey (CEO of BlockBusters Tech) a couple of weeks ago, adding some mitochondrial hacks, such as red light therapy and methylene blue, significantly moved the needle in the focus and creativity departments for him. And while today's guest, Ali Bonar, whom is the CEO and co-founder of Oat Haus (yes, that nom nom granola butter that became famous on Shark Tank!), implements both RLT and MB into her wellness regimen, she happily imparts other strategies and insights that help her to stay sane and grounded whilst running a hyper-successful company. It is an amazing story with her beginning a company in her parent's garage and, in due course, winds up with her products in Target!As you may imagine, the origin story of Oat Haus begins well before she started the company in that garage. Many years prior to that, Ali was facing nutritional "information overload" that placed internal pressure on her to eat perfectly all the time, which caused food to become very rigid & stressful. Ultimately, she developed an eating disorder that spanned over 10 years.   Eventually, Ali retrained herself to have fun with food. With the support of her therapist and those who shared their own journeys with her along the way, Ali dedicated herself to helping others feel less alone. In recovery, she re-introduced nuts into her diet (something she had previously restricted for years), but her stomach couldn’t tolerate them. While repairing her gut, she searched high and low for a healthy and delicious nut-free spread. Nothing resonated with her, so she decided to create her own, and the world's first oat-based spread — Granola Butter® — was born.

How effective is red light therapy for reducing stress when you irradiate both your brain and your gut?Can methylene blue reduce mortality in those critically ill?How safe and effect is C60 according to a recent toxicity report?​​​​In today's solosode, we're diving back into the research! And it ended up being a sheer coincidence that we're covering each topic of The Mitochondrial Triad. The first article looks at how beneficial photobiomodulation can be for reducing stress when you target both the brain and the gut to enhance mental health via the gut-brain axis. The second article is an abstract of a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials that demonstrates the efficacy and safety of methylene blue for critically ill individuals and perioperative patients. The last study comes from our friends at SES Research where they are studying the toxicity of carbon 60 to verify its safety and efficacy. With C60 being such a new supplement for human consumption, SES Research is going through the necessary and proper steps to demonstrate the safety of this novel and seemingly beneficial molecule. Hopefully, studies like this will help C60 become more widely adopted so that more people can benefit from it.

I'm excited to finally start some "fireside chats" with people that are willing to share their experiences  — good, bad, or otherwise  — about implementing red light therapy and/or methylene blue and/or C60 into their health regimen and what they noticed. That first person happens to be a (now) very good friend of mine, Don Bailey, whom I only met in-person back in December. In a nutshell, today's episode is a conversation about his experience implementing The Mitochondrial Triad and how it changed his life.​​Don and I crossed paths due to our mutual interest in the blockchain/crypto/web3 spaces. He is personally the CEO of an up-and-coming blockchain company that emphasizes tokenization; a job, as you can imagine, that requires non-stop focus, creativity, high energy, problem solving, etc. and, of course, a lot of time spent in front of a computer screen.​​After we went our separate ways in December, Don eventually reached out to me about what he should do to improve his overall energy and focus. Naturally, I highly recommended full-body red light therapy and methylene blue as the two most low hanging fruit. Over the course of the subsequent months, Don went on to trial various red light therapy devices and all of the BioBlue and BioC60 supplements.​​His case is very unique in that there were durations of time between his implementation of each modality; thus, he got to experience how only red light therapy impacted his health and energy; then he got to see how BioBlue further augmented his health and wellness; subsequently, he got to witness how his body and brain responded differently with BioBlue Leuco and so on. This candid conversation is a fantastic encapsulation of how any one of the pillars of The Mitochondrial Triad can transform your health, wellness and outlook on life.

"In effect, humans have dragged a body with a long hominid history into an overfed, malnourished, sedentary, sunlight-deficient, sleep-deprived, competitive, inequitable, and socially isolating environment with dire consequences." That quote from the book, On the Origin of Being, perfectly encapsulates the evolutionary mismatch of today's population in the modern world; an environment where everything is changing faster than our genes and physiology can keep up with! Luckily, today's guest, Jenny Powers, is one of the author's of that book, which was just released within the last couple of weeks. Jenny spent over three years researching information for the book that perfectly depicts our evolutionary and anthropological history of our hominid ancestors from which we can learn from their way of life. It's clear that we have forgotten how to live according to our evolutionary physiology.Jenny Powers is an accomplished writer, scientist, and athlete.  She earned her Ph.D. in microbiology and immunology from the University of Colorado, Denver; her journey as a collegiate basketball player taught her to push physical boundaries even as she continually expanded her intellectual horizons. She is deeply inspired by the exploration of human nature and the study of our ancestors; her role researching and co-authoring On the Origin of Being marks the culmination of this passion to date. Jenny balances her professional endeavors with her roles as a wife and mother in Colorado.In today's conversation, Jenny and I take a deep dive into some of the fascinating and insightful information that is covered in her book, On the Origin of Being. Not only is this historical perspective on how "we" used to live truly captivating, but it also leaves a trail of clues as to how all of us could improve our sleep, nutrition, work and rest, and time spent in nature or observing the natural world to optimize our quality of life in the modern world. Jenny's passion and intellect on these various topics come through during our conversation today. As we just scratch the surface, I highly recommend you check out the book and take a deep dive for yourself!I hope you enjoy the conversation today with Jenny.

Dive into the fascinating world of red light therapy as common myths and misconceptions are debunked. Is RLT just snake oil? Discover the scientific backing supporting this therapy. Learn about the ideal frequency for treatment and why more isn't always better. Explore the importance of irradiance testing for devices and find out how RLT complements other treatments—like infrared saunas. Plus, tips on eye safety and optimal use make this a must-listen for anyone curious about enhancing their wellness!

At this point, hopefully you're a fan of the mitochondria, red light therapy and methylene blue... because we'll be digging into those topics today!The first article looks at red light therapy's impact on mitochondrial dynamics. Some of this may be review, but it's all part of putting the pieces of the puzzle together in this RLT-mitochondria waltz. I continue to be awestruck at the vast potential and efficacious results that can be accomplished with red and near-infrared light.The second article reviews the impact of methylene blue on COVID-19. Lo and behold, MB is a very powerful anti-viral so we know what the punchline is going to be with SARS-CoV-2. But the review still reveals the many potential mechanisms of action of how MB works to fight off COVID-19 and also provides many clinical studies that had profound results with MB (by itself or when combined with other molecules). Personally, MB is the first line of defense whenever I feel the slightest twinge of my body coming down with a sickness; MB works to completely disallow the sickness from ever manifesting or it helps drastically shorten the course of the virus. ​​​ If you found the information in today's episode particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.
