Mitochondria: The Energy Powerhouses of our Cells, Part 1
March 12, 2024
Today’s episode is a deep-dive on the mitochondria with a focus on the importance of free radical modification of cellular membranes. Membranes are the key to cellular aging. As we get older, the membranes in our cells accumulate damage caused by oxidative stress and other outside forces that result in the loss of mitochondrial function that can produce disease states, subjective fatigue, and have a direct bearing on aging. One of the nine pillars of aging is the deterioration of the mitochondria, the energy powerhouses of our cells. John Casey, co-founder and CEO of Nutritional Therapeutics, details how NTFactor® repairs membrane damage by replacing damaged, oxidized phospholipids with healthy, unoxidized phospholipids and returns cellular membranes to healthy function, reducing fatigue, repairing cellular damage, and reversing the effects of aging.

ENCORE: The Epidemic You Never Heard Of: Alpha-Gal Syndrome, Part 1
March 7, 2024
Sharon Forsyth is a patient advocate for recognition of Alpha-gal Syndrome. It’s a recently discovered condition (2009) which now has been confirmed to be the cause of symptoms in tens of thousands of individuals—who may represent the tip of the iceberg of a far more pervasive problem. Essentially, it’s a meat allergy, transmitted by tick bites, and sufferers experience rashes, GI complaints, even life-threatening anaphylactic reactions when they eat beef, pork, or lamb. But many non-meat products are tainted with alpha-gal, including dairy products, gel caps, and carageenan. Many processed foods contain traces of meat residue, which can trigger symptoms in sufferers; so, too, do personal care products, medications and supplements. Sharon describes her challenging quest to obtain a diagnosis—many health professionals are woefully ignorant of this condition. Click HERE for part 2.
