Summary

In this episode of The Energy Blueprint, I’m excited to share a recording of Dr. David Jockers interviewing me!

We cover a lot of fascinating topics, from how the mitochondria control our health and energy levels, the Cell Danger Response, how “stress” is often misunderstood, myths about antioxidants and plants (and the way things really work), and more.

Dr. Jockers and I discuss:

What, exactly, is the cell danger response developed by Dr. Robert Naviaux? And why does it matter if you’re experiencing symptoms that just won’t budge?
2 major roles of mitochondria and how they act as “canaries in the coal mine” when it comes to your health
The 3 stages of the cell danger response and why the first stage is crucial to understand if you have chronic disease, especially chronic fatigue
How the body evolved to effectively deal with certain stressors but not others…and how any chronic stress might mean getting stuck in “wartime metabolism”
A new way to understand stress’s effect on your health—certain forms of stress aren’t as problematic as you think and will even improve your health in incredible ways!
The surprising ways you can increase your resilience—including the size, number, and function of your mitochondria!—and reduce your chances of getting stuck in the cell danger response
The real story of why plant foods are so good for you…they don’t act as antioxidants as most people think
One of the most crucial pieces of information available for disease prevention and lifelong health…Ari reveals the secret he’s been researching for over a year!

0:00.0	Hey, this is Ari. Welcome back to the Energy Blueprint podcast. In today's episode, I am featuring myself.
0:13.0	This is an interview that Dr. David Jockers did with me for his recent Conquering Chronic Inflammation Summit, which took place in
0:22.7	August, and their team shared this interview with me for us to share freely on our platform.
0:31.8	And with the hopes, of course, that you guys would maybe be interested in going to check out
0:36.5	Dr. David Jocker's work and the
0:38.5	Conquering Chronic Inflammation Summit, which I highly recommend you do. And so we got this
0:43.3	interview and we decided to do something different for this week's podcast. Instead of me
0:48.8	interviewing another expert, we decided to share one of the many interviews that people do with me. So I often
0:56.4	am interviewed for various online health summits and health documentaries usually two or three
1:02.3	times per week on average. And maybe some of you, maybe a lot of you, see those on other people's
1:09.7	online summits and documentaries and things
1:12.5	like that. But if you don't, we're going to feature one of those here on the Energy Blueprint
1:18.6	podcast. So in this episode, I have a wonderful conversation with Dr. David Jockers, and we get into
1:24.5	a lot of great stuff around mitochondria, around the cell danger response,
1:29.9	around the story of antioxidants and oxidants or free radicals or reactive oxygen species,
1:37.5	and a lot of layers to that story that most people are unaware of,
1:41.4	and most people find pretty shocking to actually sort of uncover
1:46.0	that the story is quite a bit more complex than you've been led to believe. The story of also
1:50.9	a lot of the phytochemicals and plants is also much deeper and more complicated than most people
1:57.6	believe. So we get into a lot of that, a lot of different layers of insight around mitochondria,
2:04.0	beyond the typical thing that you hear
2:05.9	in functional medicine and natural health circles,
