In this episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Martin Picard, a mitochondrial researcher who directs the Mitochondrial Psychobiology Group at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and is an Associate Professor of Behavioral Medicine in Psychiatry and Neurology.
We explore the fascinating topic of how stress affects your mitochondria and the link to aging, resilience, disease resistance, and, of course, energy levels!
This conversation was one of my personal favorites, and I can’t wait for you to hear it!

0:00.0 | The medical community and the scientific community have found associations between mitochondrial dysfunction, |
0:08.8 | which is kind of broadly, it means a lot of things, but mitochondria don't functioning well. |
0:14.1 | And if we know mitochondria make energy, but they also move and they also produce other things. |
0:17.7 | And so dysfunction can happen at multiple different levels, |
0:22.4 | the same way to human dysfunction. |
0:24.2 | We can be sick in different ways, right? |
0:26.1 | So the mitochondria can be dysfunctional |
0:28.0 | or sick also in different ways. |
0:29.7 | But the medical and the scientific community |
0:32.1 | has linked mitochondrial dysfunction |
0:34.5 | to every disease that I know of. |
0:37.0 | So if you go on PubMed or you Google whatever disease you want and mitochondrial dysfunction, |
0:42.9 | there is most likely an article that documents some evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction |
0:48.7 | in that disease. |
0:50.3 | Hello and welcome back to the Energy Blueprint Podcast. |
0:53.5 | I'm your host, Ari Whitten, and I am incredibly |
0:56.2 | excited about today's guest, who is an expert in my personal favorite topic, which is |
1:02.5 | mitochondria. So his name is Dr. Martine Picard. He's an assistant professor of behavioral medicine |
1:09.5 | in psychiatry and neurology at Columbia |
1:11.8 | University. |
1:13.0 | He obtained his PhD in mitochondrial biology of aging in 2012. |
1:18.6 | He then moved to the University of Pennsylvania for a postdoctoral fellowship in the Center |
