Welcome to the Optimal Protein Podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina. Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Vanessa, and I am so excited because my guests joining us this week are Julieette and Kelly Starrett, who are a dynamic husband and wife team. And they have created something called The Ready State and just authored a brand new book called

0:23.5

Built to Move. Now Juliet used to be a lawyer. She left her job to run their successful gym and

0:29.7

business while Kelly is a world-renowned doctor of physical therapy and also a New York

0:35.3

Times bestselling author. Now they just wrote this new book called

0:39.0

Built to Move and unlike Kelly's previous book, which you may have heard of called Becoming a Supple

0:44.9

Leopard, this book really focuses on the essential habits that can help us move our bodies more

freely and live more fully. Now in today's conversation, we really dive deeply, actually, into nutrition and prioritizing

0:59.7

protein and their thoughts on nutrition, which is a really interesting take.

1:32.6

that many of us are deficient in and not even aware of it.

1:36.5

And that nutrient is light and specifically red light.

1:40.8

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

1:47.1

therapy's ability to support our mitochondrial health. Now, our mitochondria, as you probably know,

1:52.6

are responsible for helping us to do pretty much everything in our bodies at the cellular level.

1:58.9

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

2:03.9

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

2:10.1

our mitochondria's ability to function optimally. Now, we talk on this podcast all the time

2:15.3

about different strategies from exercise, intermittent fasting, doing resistance training, and getting lots of autophagy and all the science behind mitochondrial biogenesis or the creation of new mitochondria.
