0:00.0	Welcome to the Commian podcast. My name is Jeff Krasno. Today on the show, I welcome
0:13.6	Catherine Arnston. Catherine is the founder of Energy Bits, and she is a passionate champion of the world's oldest and most
0:23.9	nutrient-dense whole food. Algae. That's right. Energy bits are algae tablets, and they're
0:32.8	called energy bits because algae, among its many other attributes, upgrades the function of our mitochondria,
0:41.9	the power plants within our cells. In our conversation, Catherine and I go deep into the co-evolution
0:49.2	between blue-green algae, otherwise known as cyanobacteria, and our mitochondria.
0:55.8	In fact, our mitochondria is a product of a christ between purple algae that refused to be
1:04.5	fully engulfed by another prokaryotic cell known as archaea.
1:09.2	And this unlikely marriage yielded aerobic respiration, the ability to
1:14.7	optimally make energy using oxygen. And that springboarded complex life. Now Catherine and I
1:23.1	discussed the myriad benefits of consuming algae, specifically spirulina, which is a complete protein,
1:31.6	and Chorella, which is a rich source of antioxidants. This was a fascinating conversation, and I hope
1:39.1	you enjoy it. But before we dive in, I want to let you know about some of our programs on the Commune
1:45.4	course platform.
