Summary

113: On today's episode we talk all things Mitochondria.  Mitochondrial health is something that is being thrown around a lot in the health and wellness space, and today we have Catharine Arnston to break it down for us.  Catharine Arnston of ENERGYbits joins me to talk about algae, how it can help improve your mitochondrial health and why we should care so much about it. Topics Discussed: → Macro algae vs. micro algae  → Spirulina → Chlorella → What are Mitochondria → How many mitochondria there are in your brain, heart, women’s eggs  → Refined carbs → Sugar  → Types of antioxidants  → What happens if you take Melatonin in the day  → Spirulina and Alzheimer’s and other brain disorders  Check out Catharine: → Energy Bits Online | code REALFOODOLOGY saves you 20% and FREE shipping → Energy Bits on Instagram Sponsored By: → Organifi | https://www.organifi.com/realfoodology Code REALFOODOLOGY gets you 20% Off → Magic Mins | https://www.magicmind.co/ Code REALFOODOLOGY gets you 20% off  Check Out Courtney: → Courtney's Instagram: @realfoodology → www.realfoodology.com → Air Dr Air Purifier → AquaTru Water Filter → EWG Tap Water Database Further Listening: → The Organic Watchdog Learn more about your ad choices.

On today's episode of the Real Foodology podcast, algae has everything that your mitochondria need to

0:07.8

survive and thrive. And we can turn around the trajectory of disease. You don't get any more

0:16.1

paleo, ancestral, organic, original than algae. And for health, you can't get any further down

0:24.0

into what causes health or disease than mitochondria. Hi, friends, welcome back to another

0:31.6

episode of the Real Foodology podcast. I'm your host Courtney Swan, and I'm excited about today's

0:36.3

episode. You know, I'm always excited about these episodes, but this one I find very fascinating because we really go into mitochondria and why we should care about our mitochondria?

0:47.5

I think it's safe to say that we all learned in like middle school that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell, and it acts like the battery

0:54.8

for our bodies. But I don't think that at the time when it was explained to us that it was really

1:00.3

reiterated just how important the mitochondria is and how big of a role it plays in our overall

1:05.3

lives and our overall health. Well, now we know the mitochondria in our cells do far more than just generate ATP,

1:12.8

which is energy for our body.

1:14.5

They also control all of our health, our cell signaling, our metabolism, longevity,

1:19.6

brain, gut, energy, sleep, digestion, and like pretty much everything.

1:24.8

But sadly, as you age, you have fewer mitochondria and the ones that do

1:28.4

stick around get damaged or die from toxins and poor dietary and lifestyle choices. Now that's not

1:35.1

great, but the cool thing is that we can actually reverse this damage to our mitochondria. And one of the

1:42.0

ways we can do that is by taking spirulina and

1:45.0

chlorella algae.

1:46.8

And this is why I'm super stoked about today's episode with Catherine Arnston of

1:49.9

Energy Bits.

1:50.6

She created energy bits, which are spirulina and

1:54.2

chlorella tablets that you can take every single day.
