Welcome to the optimal protein podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina.

Welcome back to the optimal protein podcast, my friends. I'm your host, Vanessa Spina, and I am so

I want to tell you about a very important nutrient that many of us are deficient in and not even aware of it.

And that nutrient is light and specifically red light.

I am so passionate and obsessed with the incredible amount of science behind red light therapy's

ability to support our mitochondrial health.

Now, our mitochondria, as you probably know, are responsible for helping us to do pretty much

everything in our bodies at the cellular level.

Now, when it comes to energy levels, our immunity, our skin health and

beauty, and even our metabolic health and fitness, so much is connected back to our mitochondria's

ability to function optimally. Now, we talk on this podcast all the time about different strategies

from exercise, intermittent fasting,

doing resistance training, and getting lots of autophagy, and all the science behind mitochondrial
