Some of us wear our "nerd" label with great pride. I have noticed that those flinging that term around seem to think that being ignorant is somehow cool (hip). It ain't.
honestly, intellectuals do a lot of damage to the world. those who make actual contributions are in the minority. i've spent a lot of time around intellectuals and they tend to be very degenerate people.
Finally a person who can discuss mitochondria without finding themselves saying 'mitochondria .... make energy' and appropriately describes them as transforming energy.
Not necessarily eat less. Don't over-eat. Also, not mentioned here, mitochondria respond and multiple in brown adipose tissue when you submerge in those cold tanks like Joe Rogan has discussed.
He's so right that medicine has to move to understanding and fixing problems per the individual rather than "batch" solutions. This is ongoing and gathering steam.
One thing I did not hear in this video was the role of sunshine. I have been hearing a lot about the role of infrared light in melatonin production and melatonin is an antioxidant in the mitochondria.
I have been meditating for many, many decades, and have used visualization as well as breathing techniques in conjunction with adequate exercise, nutrition and healthy sleeping habits. I discovered visualization of healthy, long mitochondria is very essential to staying healthy and fit (I am 52). Concentrating on the digestive system, and the brain are essential if you want to increase your physical and mental health as well as draw positivity into your life. The key to spiritual, mental and physical well-being is recognizing and visualizing the same science that we obtain in the form of products and healthy regimens, and it shouldn't be left out. Visualization is the the missing puzzle piece to our completeness.
@@akoaykilalamo Well, to visualize you need to look first at a structural form in your mind. For instance, breathing techniques start with thinking of your lungs as a paper bag, which you fill from the bottom up, then empty from the top down. If you can find a good book on chakra cleansing, for instance, visualization of the chakras are at the heart of the procedure, as you imagine each chakra as an orb of a certain color, rotating in a certain direction. You can apply the same technique to any scientific information that you can give structural form in your mind to, in any way that suits your intuition. Open your mind to interpretation and the true meaning and definition of life will in turn open to you.
Tips from Dr Picard: 1. Move! Exercise encourages your body to produce new mitochondria (up to 2x) 2. Don’t eat too much, it’s ok to be hungry - intermittent fasting is great for your mitochondria 3. A new idea being proposed is possibly your mental state can change your mitochondria (ie., do what you can to lead a life that makes you happy!)
If Person have adrenal fatigue, exercice can be dangerous, walk is great, and also fasting can be dangerous with People who have unstable blood sugar..so we should be careful of giving general advice ;)
Very honest information regarding how meds impact mitochondria but we dont know how they actually work and long term effects. I would love to know how say a 3 day fast every so often affects our mitochondria. Surely pharma meds longterm is a recipe for disease. I like his theory on rebound unless we change we will keep getting what we get. For me its sleeping well. Being active especially outdoors parks and forests and beach walks Sunshine and swimming or relaxing in water. I like the not eating too much. Great information look after the mitochondria if you want to stay well.
Cancer begins when the mitochondria of a cell become so damaged they can't carry out oxidative phosphorylation, but instead of dying the cell manages to switch to the fermentation of glucose in the cytoplasm.
Molecular medicine is the forefront of all medicine today. Mitochondria are at the heart of this approach. Understanding the complex, synergistic actions and functions of the body is the key to optimum physical health. It is exciting to be part of this as I treat my own multiple myeloma without traditional radiation and chemotherapy. While doing the things that are suggested here I find that my mind is much stronger as well.
Glad you are trying to treat yourself without chemical ( mitochondrial ) poisoning . However , the molecular medicine approach really has not much to do with the mitochondria . It is focussed on genes and proteins . Molecular medicine is a good approach is you want to DAMAGE your mitochondria .
Excellent discussion on a topic very much a keen interest of mine for many years, though I am no longer in an academic environment myself. One point not addressed per se, despite some really great questions and answers by you two gentlemen, is that of the potential beneficial role of supplementation supportive of mito health, function, and biogenesis. In particular, PQQ (Pyrroloquinoline Quinone) holds outstanding beneficial potential, not alone of course but in conjunction with good nutrition, regular exercise, and yes, intermittent fasting as touched upon here. NMN (Nicotinamide MonoNucleotide) and/or NR (Nicotinamide Riboside, my preferred form) also seem to function synergistically with PQQ in this regard as well, fostering the NAD+/ATP cycle within mitochondria, again as adjuncts to the above lifestyle components. At just shy of 72, my own health & fitness, physically, physiologically, neurologically, cognitively, mentally/emotionally, interpersonally, etc has never been better, and I consider mito health central to the overall equation. Thanks for a terrific segment guys :)
Meditation suggests simply observation of breadths and/or sensations all around and over the body. The benefits are profound, slow to appear and lasts on consistent practice. Considerable time would be involved, so it's important to do it the right way and learn from the right school. I tried visualization to no benefit. Now practice Vipassana; transformed my life.
He forgot to mention, avoid aluminum, and fluoride. Why ? fluoride increases the absorption of aluminum by our acidic stomach And aluminum jams up the midocondrea process… Dr Chris exley explains how aluminum is root cause of Alzheimer’s, autism , Parkinson’s , MS…
Everybody knows they have to do these things, and yet these two pencil-necks thought people should waste an hour of their time listening to common sense drivel.
Thank you! My health took a dive after a high dose statin therapy. From what information I could glean, and there is not much, my mitochondria were negatively impacted system wide. Nine months later, I am beginning to feel some recovery.
I’m an Ironman athlete, and a relatively low carb person. No junk carbs. I listened to podcast #53 of Inside Exercise, where Dr. Paul Coen or (Cohen) discussed his latest research that showed Metformin having a negative relationship with aerobic / mitochondrial promotion in some people.
It’s amazing to think how we feel affects our mitochondria… Therefore the ACE study and stress really highlights how impactful negative events and negative thinking has on people and populations… I’m wondering out aloud how the recent pandemic would have created long term impacts utilising this research…
I'm totally on board with his findings and recommendations. I liked his discussion about medications and their effect on mitochondria although he steered clear of the covid vaccine.
I eat one meal a day and keep satiated until the next day. I’m a ketovore eater. Has healed my body in many many ways. I wish more ppl cared about what they consume.😊
Function of mitochondria and need for customised medication or preventive care; well explained. How mental exhaustion kill more than physical understood well Drs. Thanks a lot. 👍 Alredy talks are going on that there will be customised medicine formula; which as of now is limited to movies.
So grateful for the research presented here! As others do, I too research to improve health w/o extending dependence on phamaceuticals. Any new researchers with potentially actionable steps like those shown here are treasures to those who have psychotic symptoms. While a researcher and not a physician, the knowledge that research has gained is hope for diseases cruel and often hellish. Thank you. Please keep up the good fight!
Well, that’s good news! I wake up feeling guilty and stressed that I have paid for exercises classes that I didn’t attend but very happy and content snuggling in my nice warm bed. I’m active though, I love my job and pottering around the house doing stuff. I also do intermittent fasting because it’s fun for me. I must be one of those low responders…
From memory the brain is 2% of Body weight, but uses 20% of the entire bodies Oxygen needs, ten times more than any other organ or tissue. At 62 I use a number of supplements and "Zone 2" exercise (I think) a combination of intense interval training along with Heavy weights 2-3 times per week, 1-2 long bike rides, 1-boxing session for coordination, 2-outdoor circuit sessions, with a group of middle aged men. After a major head injury 5.5 yrs ago, improving brain function-hopefully repairing the brain became a focus of mine. I've had significant improvement 95-99% better with improvement in energy...
I just would like to say that. Listening to guys like you makes me motivated and inspires me. Mainstream is just not deep enough for me. Hail to the RUclips platform gods LOL 😁😄✊️
@@lynlawley8903 because too many people have terrible diets that lead to heart attacks from clogged arteries and aren't willing or able to change diet and lifestyle. So the option left is statins. It's unfortunate when there are other ways but v hard to.force ppl to change.
Thanks so much. Can you invite an expert on to talk about exercise intolerance and post exercise malaise, please? I hear all the time exercise is the best way to increase mitochondria, but so many people crash after exercise.
I really value my college physiology😊. And am thankful that there are no genetic issues in my kids and grandkids. We are all on organic foods, exercise, and avoid chemicals whenever possible. I would love to know how giving kids 90 vaccines is good for their mitochondria.
Really interesting when talking about positive thought and mitochondrial health. I have stage 2 Emphysema and though I lack lung capacity, perhaps 60%, the combination of staying healthy and my state of mind helps my well-being. 1. I move every day, most days extend my capacity. 2. Eat healthy and miss meals. 3. Stay positive and active with creative pursuits. I'm 65, 75Kilo and fit
In regard to the experiments Dr. Picard mentioned in which mitochondrial networks within cultured cells became fragmented following an excessive supply of energy, it would be interesting to see this experiment repeated with variations in the type of energy source supplied (e.g., pure fat vs. pure carbs vs. fat and carbs in varying proportions) and with variations in the starting conditions of the cells (e.g., fat-adapted vs. not fat-adapted).
I know that teaching conditions are incredibly challenging and that they don’t receive nearly enough resources and pay for what they do, however the issues with children discipline go both ways, imho. Adults need to learn how to talk to children just as much as children need to learn to speak to adults. As a psych RN that dealt with acute mental illness patients our communication skills are key to deescalation to the vast majority of potentially combative situations. These same skills need to be taught to teachers and used in classrooms. I saw a lot of these clear communication challenges between teachers & kids when my daughter was in school. Yes, this places more accountability in teachers but they’re the adults and these skills will go a long way in assisting teachers which will ultimately help kids and their parents.
The. MIND is NOT in the body The brain is not the mind. All energy comes from your thoughts (the mind) Take care what you think about. Talk to your body.... Your cells are listening.
Amazing information. Welcome to the 21st Century. This sounds like understanding the influence of our medications on our Mitochondria might help us to solve the root causes of our diseases.
Not eating too much - particularly sugar, because mitochondria produce energy by aerobic respiration (another reason exercise helps biogeneis and maintain mitochondria health) but cancer uses sugar fermentation for energy through anaerobic respiration, even when in the presence of oxygen. Sugar is fine when used for energy, preferably complex carbs (sugar), but too much causes many problems beyond the scope here. Allowing a fasting state has many benefits, including triggering autophagy and mitophagy, which recycles damaged and bad mitochondria to make new ones that are healthy, before disease sets in.
I realized Mitochondria and their creb cycle are the key to our cellular lives. This is a basic function responsible for our human, plant, and animal life,
There has been some studies on the effect of Near Infra Red light (the part of sunlight that gives you heat - about 700-80nM) helps to correct mitochondria dysfunction through melatonin production in the cell for combating Reactive Oxygen Species in the cell. NIR can penetrate into the body and reach into the cell just by being outside during daytime. Your views are solicited.

I am going on two years of mitochondria damage due to two courses of Cipro for a gut infection. It has left me with ruptured tendons, brain fog, fatigue, worsened 34:08 food allergic reactions, visual disturbances, chronic pain, muscle weakness, neuropathy, among other things. I have spent a small fortune on supplements to repair the damage, but have reached a plateau of improvement and seem stuck. I forced myself to move even though I hurt everywhere. On crutches for six months, I now can walk three miles, force myself to climb stairs, but one leg drags and wobbles, dangerous when climbing stairs. I eat a healthy lowr calorie diet, avoid sugar, only use olive oil, organic produce and grains, little high fat animal protein, but my recovery has halted at this level. I tire easily, by evening am done in, and need to eat three meals a day. Fasting makes me sick. Is there a supplement that can stimulate new mitochondria production? I am coping, but frustrated that a doctor would prescribe such a toxic medication to treat an infection that a safer antibiotic would have worked. I am 74. Before the Cipro, I hiked 5 miles a day, was active socially, did creative writing projects, dabbled in learning to paint, and a lot of that has been put on the shelf. Just writing is difficult,putting thoughts in order, expressing myself clearly, is challenging . Memory loss worsens as the day progresses. I am determined to fully recover, I am not giving up. Any helpful advice is appreciated. Thanks.
You have drunken the koolaid and much of what has been suggested as “healthy” is actually incorrect. You say you are low calorie-wrong as calorie counting isn’t helpful You’ve cut sugar great. How about carbs and grains? You say you are eating organic produce and grains. Fruits have fructose that cause non alcoholic fatty liver, veggies are fine if low carb. Organic grains??-thats nothing but carbs. Then you say you limit high fat animal products. Wrong again. High saturated fat is beneficial for the human body. Cholesterol is a misnomer, the key metric is keeping insulin spikes less frequent and triglycerides levels low. You are 74 and much of the knowledge you carry stems from the Food pyramid and guide which is mostly not based on science and only to support certain farming industries. Try ketogenic to get carbs down. Try learning about full carnivore to actually heal the body. Cipro and any GI ailment is best treated with a low residue diet just as recommended to patients who have just had a GI surgery. The ultimate elimination diet is ground beef, whole eggs, and a bit of avocado and mushroom. Try that for a month and see how you feel. At this point you have nothing to lose other than disrupting the misinformation and cognitive dissonance from the brainwashing We have undergone since the 70s. I am over 50 and only changed my mind from knowledge gained on YT after personally being sick and inflamed, looking for answers.
Have you looked at the ketogenic diet info on this channel? It's backwards to what the food guide states. Grains aren't considered healthy, nor is little saturated fat! Not being a ble to fast is a good indicator your body is not able to use fat efficiently.currently and that needs to be challenged. I'd strongly.recommend ketogenic diet fornthat purpose as it adapts you to using fat and will take a few days to get into ketosis and allows for more autophagy while you're eating and will keep you full when not promoting longer fasting which in future can extend. Grains are awful on the gut. Hands down that's the first step that needs to go. Low fat doesn't promote brain health. Literally fo opposite there's benefit over low fat and studies to show it! High fat high salt High animal fat and meat focus (1.2g/kg a day) Eat low.carb veggies as long as you get minimum protein each day. I have heds which affects all connective tissues and greatly.in the joints. I'm disabled from it and we avoid cipro as we already got issues there. I hear you, it really blows :( this helped me get.my energy and vigor for.life back. Looking at mitochondria is the right place and ketogenic diet is next step.
Thanks for your feedback. I do not know what nad iv is put will look it up. I am ready taking pqq. It has helped. The keto diet is a no go. I am highly allergic to most meats, and chlorophyll. Eggs, chicken, beef, pork, turkey, Buffalo, all make me swell and itch and cause bursitis. Fasting causes my blood sugar to plummet. Peanuts, almonds, other nuts also problematic. So the diet is restricted due to lifelong food allergies. Thank you for your considerate comment. All are appreciated.
Ketogenic diet can be a vegetarian diet with what ever foods you can tolerate as long as they are not processed. The key to the ketogenic diet is the proportion of fat has to be 65% or over. Choose high protein vegetables to make up the protein component but add vitamin and mineral supplements to a vegetarian or vegan diet. Do not forget vitamin b12 supplements. Hope this helps. Also avoiding all sensitive foods for at least 3 months and try adding one at a time every 10 days if you want to try. You may need help from a dietician in order to go in an elimination diet.
I am so sorry to hear this. I think I would explore these possibilities if I were in your shoes. 1) A good, experienced kinesiologist. Kinesiology is both diagnostic and also shows what strengthens your body and what weakens it (including any supplements you're taking or that they are considering prescribing). 2) Eden Energy Medicine, now rebranding Eden Method. Again, a good, experienced practitioner can find out a tremendous amount about what's going on and rebalance your body's energies including deeper energy systems not covered by conventional medicine. Sessions can be done remotely by experienced practitioners if there's noone near you. Donna Eden can see energy and made a powerful recovery from MS decades ago. Her method incorporates elements of kinesiology. 3) A functional medicine practitioner with training in this area. 4) A good, experienced Chinese Medicine Doctor. The Chinese medicine system can deal successfully with many chronic conditions that Western medicine is at a loss as to what to do about, and has thousands of years of history behind it. The Emperor's physician used to only be paid if the Emperor was healthy! Wishing you well
I appreciate Dr. Picard's caution and concern with the use of medications not clearly understood by those prescribing them. It could be that they are only trying to treat the symptoms rather than focusing on what is causing the mitochondrial dysfunction in the first place, which is something we all can do by ourselves without medical intervention. @36:40, the doctor hit on the major cause of mitochondrial dysfunction, saying the amount of sugar overwhelms the mitochondria. I believe this is true and observable in a petri dish, but is it the quantity or the type of sugar, or both? Dr Lustig teaches that sugars consumed are absorbed differently at different stages of digestion. The initial sugar absorption is fructose, which goes directly to the liver, and that is where the damage is done. He teaches that a healthy digestive tract and biome is the key to cellular level health, and insoluble and soluble fiber is likely the easiest and most effective mechanism a person can take to preserve their mitochondrial health. As best I can describe, it works by preventing the early absorption of fructose by absorbing the sugars, which allows them to reach the lower part of the digestive tract where the good bacteria can feed on the glucose, expel the fructose, and disseminate the energy to all the cells in the body as designed. As well as the valuable information given by Dr. Picard in this video, Doctor Lustig has many videos on the subject with scientific data to back it up.
Capture your 10-year-olds’ attention by telling them about the resident aliens with their own DNA they received from their mothers and is the reason we could trace our ancestor to the first mother. I learned that mitochondria have their own DNA long after I learned about mitochondria and it’s still one of the most exciting thing I ever learned.
I wonder if HIIT , sprinting and such has a different effect on mitochondrial supply from aerobic training ? If we look at long distance runners compared to 100 meter runners the muscle growth is very different . Even looking at 200 meter vs 100 meter runners displays a massive difference. It seems reasonable to me that loooooooong distance running id depleting your energy where as with sprinting you seem to be energised once you catch your breath. However I have inflicted Achilles tendonitis to on myself - mainly due to idiocy. I recommend lots of strength training of the Achilles area prior to sprinting . Especially if you are only young in your heart , mind and soul. ...... Rehab takes a long time weeks into months, but I can do Air Bike. No excuse.
I am glad to hear these confirmations of 3 major potential lifestyle measures to support mitochondria. Thank you so much! How can we assess our mitochondrial health with testing?
I am not an expert, so take this with a huge grain of salt, but it seems to me that anything that measures energy efficiency, commonly known as fitness, would work. There are two common ways to do this. VO2 max is one but it requires a treadmill and sophisticated equipment, though it is more accurate. The other is heart rate recovery rate. Exercise until you are at your max heart rate [1] and record that heart rate. Then rest and record your heart rate 1 minute later. The difference between those two numbers is a measure of your energetic health. The higher the difference, the faster your body recovers, the more fit you are, and the healthier your mitochondria are. This is easy to do without anything other than a stopwatch, though less accurate, really only an approximation. You can sprint, do burpees, run on the spot, etc. (web search HIIT for alternatives), to get up to your max heart rate. A longer version is to measure how long it takes to get from your max heart rate to your resting heart rate, but the essence is captured in the simpler version and it doesn't take as long. It can take many minutes to reach resting heart rate, as the decrements decrease with time. 1. Be careful with this, if you are in very poor shape and overdo the exercise intensity, you can actually give yourself a heart attack. Start slowly. Maybe walk for 20 minutes (10?, 5?, 1?), measure your heart rate, and then rest for a minute and measure it again. As you get fitter, increase the intensity of the exercise to raise your heart rate slightly each time. From what I've read, dropping 25 bpm in the first minute is reasonable fitness for the average person, though elite athletes will be much higher, maybe three or four times that. For example, an elite athlete might have a max heart rate nearing 200 bpm, and drop as much as 100 bpm in the first minute. Depending on your age, this might be an impossible target, as max heart rate drops with age, even for elite athletes. You can find approximations of max heart rate online, for a given age (a simple, rough formula is 220 - your age).
I found out about my mitochondrial issues through taking the full body intelligence test at Viome. They send supplements for helping in many areas after the results are given as well as dietary advice.
This is edging me toward lifestyle interventions as a prostate cancer management plan rather than taking aboard the arduous alternative. I'd subject myself to a clinical trial to test this approach.
It would be great to see an abridged version of this or a short by you on the topic. A lot of content makers seem to want to push it to the one hour mark, which can be nice, but key points are sometimes all we are looking for at first.
I agree with you. 3 minutes in and all could have been said in 1 minute. We are busy people. I don't know why the podcaster does that . I wish them good luck.
Thanks for your comment. We definitely have two camps of viewers. One really likes the in-depth discussion, getting to know the guest more, and understanding their work and the theory behind the work. The other camp is more interested in the takeaways to help them improve their health, This type of interview definitely caters to the first camp. We will also try to make shorter summary videos to cater to the second camp. Thanks for bringing that up!
@dita4911 lol I'd love to see you try to summarize this video into 20 seconds. Complicated topics can't be summarized. Busy people don't prioritize themselves on topics that are life changing and maybe you need to consider what you spend your time on instead of spending it on an entitled comment. Geesh
Winston Churchill ate what he needed, drank to excess frequently, smoked, guided Britain through the WW2 - and moved a lot. He was also quite overweight. Died aged 90. What we may learn from diet and mental health is great. But it's also what we do with our lives that may be a major factor on health outcomes.
I have suffered from disease my whole life I have for autoimmune disorders now can I have the HLA B27 Gene for ankylosing spondylitis which started in grade school. I've had internal medicine and Rheumatology doctors 40 years no one ever mentioned this. Every organ in my body has something wrong with it. Depression was how I got my disability permanent disability. I do my best to hide it all from family. They hardly see me
Ok now I’m curious if stretching might also increase mitochondria. The reason is that, when I stretch often and feel more limber, I find that my endurance seems to be a little greater. Stretching only directly before a workout doesn’t seem to have the same impact.
I had not heard/read that different cell types had differing types of mitochondria. Is this new information, or did I just miss it? Now I'm curious what those differences are and why they exist.
As one who found out the hard way medication for mental illness worked for me and if I have to take it forever it’s better than when I was mentally sick!Different people are different,you can’t lump us all in together!Some illnesses cannot get well without those oh so bad medications!
It would be nice to hear something specific about mitochondria and mental health. I’m at 40 min mark and haven’t hear anything that a high school student wouldn’t learn in their class. Lithium - we know how it works, it’s similar quite a few ions such as calcium and iodine and takes their place thus affecting certain biological processes.
Your disclaimer 2 minutes in... I totally disagree !!! NOT consulting a "health care professional" (my doctor) actually saved my life. For all of you, who are still sitting on the fence when it comes to diet and health.... here is a piece of logic, nobody can argue with. When you do something a certain way, and it does not give you the expected results... actually makes it worse... do something else. If you are in bad health and you are getting worse every day... educate yourself and take charge of your own body. It is ridiculous to expect, that a doctor after a few minutes makes a life or slow death decision, while he gets paid one way or another... With other words, "I know my body better than any doctor ever will". Virtually all chronic illness is caused by bad nutrition... It is the sugar stupid.... it is really that simple.
The only problem I have with the women’s study is there’s no apparent control for diet and possible supplementation. I can wake up at 3 am with an anxiety attack and pounding heart , pop a calcium pill and 20 minutes later feel as if I have no problems at all. Nutrients play such a vital part in our moods and energy. Great interview I have to say.
Thank you for posting information on this subject. I suck liposomal glutathione (200mg is enough) daily. It’s great for REM sleep in the early hours of the morning. My mind is clear and I am ready for the day ahead😊😊😊.
What happens when rusty elemental iron filings mixed into flour flood the mitochondria and interact with the oxygen, especially when the copper pool is in the cell is depleted.
19:45 life style choices we can do: diet. insecticides and pesticides which is poisons for mitochondria. psychological states can also affect the mitochondria for example psychological stress can trigger hyperglycemia, as cortisol goes to the liver which release glucose into the blood
Gene 1 MTHFR when mutated impact all you mention: mental health, heart and cancer. Lifestyle helps and as an epigeneticist I am interested in mito disorder. Lineage is very important as well as toxins of all kinds.
That's a tough question to answer and is best addressed with a personal consultation with someone familiar with fasting. You can try www.diagnosisdiet.com/directory for mental health professionals or here www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/doctors for low-carb trained professionals.
And what about mitochondrial repair? Mitochondrial melatonin in night time from pineal, and day time mitochondrial melatonin turn over from electromagnetic waves ... what about heteroplasmy?
I also have a passion for mitochondria, after mitrocondria toxicity from Pharmacuticals.. Morphine and many other drugs prescribed after a car crash.. anti-sickness tablets I was left on for to long set me up for parkinsonism brought on by pharmacuticals. Concentrating on these bad boys got me out of bed, and a wheelchair.. I'm a plantbased eater and incorporate alpha lipoic acid foods, among other much needed nutrients.. I also work with nature, negative ions, free electrons, and lots of photons. Sunrise is good for the soul who needs to heal🎉
If you have not already, please consider interviewing Dr. Christopher M. Palmer who is. Harvard Phyciatrist and Nuerological researcher who has authored "Brain Energy" his book on mitochondrial dysfunction and mental health.

I have been meditating for many, many decades, and have used visualization as well as breathing techniques in conjunction with adequate exercise, nutrition and healthy sleeping habits. I discovered visualization of healthy, long mitochondria is very essential to staying healthy and fit (I am 52). Concentrating on the digestive system, and the brain are essential if you want to increase your physical and mental health as well as draw positivity into your life. The key to spiritual, mental and physical well-being is recognizing and visualizing the same science that we obtain in the form of products and healthy regimens, and it shouldn't be left out. Visualization is the the missing puzzle piece to our completeness.
I agree with you. Our visualization nourishes our body.
I-theist?
Would you elaborate what do you mean by visualizing things?
@@akoaykilalamo Well, to visualize you need to look first at a structural form in your mind. For instance, breathing techniques start with thinking of your lungs as a paper bag, which you fill from the bottom up, then empty from the top down.
If you can find a good book on chakra cleansing, for instance, visualization of the chakras are at the heart of the procedure, as you imagine each chakra as an orb of a certain color, rotating in a certain direction. You can apply the same technique to any scientific information that you can give structural form in your mind to, in any way that suits your intuition. Open your mind to interpretation and the true meaning and definition of life will in turn open to you.
One of the best comments I’ve read in years.
God bless you sir.

I'd add daily exposure to sunlight. Not burning, not tanning, just natural level on the skin sunlight. We're not designed to live indoors in cocoons.
Very honest information regarding how meds impact mitochondria but we dont know how they actually work and long term effects.
I would love to know how say a 3 day fast every so often affects our mitochondria.
Surely pharma meds longterm is a recipe for disease.
I like his theory on rebound unless we change we will keep getting what we get.
For me its sleeping well. Being active especially outdoors parks and forests and beach walks
Sunshine and swimming or relaxing in water. I like the not eating too much.
Great information look after the mitochondria if you want to stay well.
Cancer begins when the mitochondria of a cell become so damaged they can't carry out oxidative phosphorylation, but instead of dying the cell manages to switch to the fermentation of glucose in the cytoplasm.
Or switch to glutamine.
methylene blue seems vital, fyi
And the body cannot control the growth. Some use ketones as well

Are you talking about anaerobic growth?
Molecular medicine is the forefront of all medicine today. Mitochondria are at the heart of this approach. Understanding the complex, synergistic actions and functions of the body is the key to optimum physical health. It is exciting to be part of this as I treat my own multiple myeloma without traditional radiation and chemotherapy. While doing the things that are suggested here I find that my mind is much stronger as well.
Glad you are trying to treat yourself without chemical ( mitochondrial ) poisoning .
However , the molecular medicine approach really has not much to do with the mitochondria . It is focussed on genes and proteins .
Molecular medicine is a good approach is you want to DAMAGE your mitochondria .
Excellent discussion on a topic very much a keen interest of mine for many years, though I am no longer in an academic environment myself. One point not addressed per se, despite some really great questions and answers by you two gentlemen, is that of the potential beneficial role of supplementation supportive of mito health, function, and biogenesis. In particular, PQQ (Pyrroloquinoline Quinone) holds outstanding beneficial potential, not alone of course but in conjunction with good nutrition, regular exercise, and yes, intermittent fasting as touched upon here. NMN (Nicotinamide MonoNucleotide) and/or NR (Nicotinamide Riboside, my preferred form) also seem to function synergistically with PQQ in this regard as well, fostering the NAD+/ATP cycle within mitochondria, again as adjuncts to the above lifestyle components. At just shy of 72, my own health & fitness, physically, physiologically, neurologically, cognitively, mentally/emotionally, interpersonally, etc has never been better, and I consider mito health central to the overall equation. Thanks for a terrific segment guys :)
Very interesting
Thanking you for sharing
Vaccines cause mitochondrial disease/ dysfunction. Not always born with it, it’s induced.
Meditation suggests simply observation of breadths and/or sensations all around and over the body. The benefits are profound, slow to appear and lasts on consistent practice.
Considerable time would be involved, so it's important to do it the right way and learn from the right school.
I tried visualization to no benefit. Now practice Vipassana; transformed my life.

He forgot to mention, avoid aluminum, and fluoride.
Why ?
fluoride increases the absorption of aluminum by our acidic stomach
And aluminum jams up the midocondrea process…

Everybody knows they have to do these things, and yet these two pencil-necks thought people should waste an hour of their time listening to common sense drivel.
Thank you! My health took a dive after a high dose statin therapy. From what information I could glean, and there is not much, my mitochondria were negatively impacted system wide. Nine months later, I am beginning to feel some recovery.

Yes! That would be amazing!!
Best suggestion I have heard in quite a while! Might be good to partner with Dr. Been (Dr. Been Medical Lectures)!!
I’m an Ironman athlete, and a relatively low carb person. No junk carbs. I listened to podcast #53 of Inside Exercise, where Dr. Paul Coen or (Cohen) discussed his latest research that showed Metformin having a negative relationship with aerobic / mitochondrial promotion in some people.
This dude has fantastic energy.
(No pun intended. )
It’s amazing to think how we feel affects our mitochondria…
Therefore the ACE study and stress really highlights how impactful negative events and negative thinking has on people and populations…
I’m wondering out aloud how the recent pandemic would have created long term impacts utilising this research…
I'm totally on board with his findings and recommendations. I liked his discussion about medications and their effect on mitochondria although he steered clear of the covid vaccine.

Function of mitochondria and need for customised medication or preventive care; well explained. How mental exhaustion kill more than physical understood well Drs. Thanks a lot. 👍 Alredy talks are going on that there will be customised medicine formula; which as of now is limited to movies.
So grateful for the research presented here! As others do, I too research to improve health w/o extending dependence on phamaceuticals. Any new researchers with potentially actionable steps like those shown here are treasures to those who have psychotic symptoms. While a researcher and not a physician, the knowledge that research has gained is hope for diseases cruel and often hellish. Thank you. Please keep up the good fight!

From memory the brain is 2% of Body weight, but uses 20% of the entire bodies Oxygen needs, ten times more than any other organ or tissue. At 62 I use a number of supplements and "Zone 2" exercise (I think) a combination of intense interval training along with Heavy weights 2-3 times per week, 1-2 long bike rides, 1-boxing session for coordination, 2-outdoor circuit sessions, with a group of middle aged men. After a major head injury 5.5 yrs ago, improving brain function-hopefully repairing the brain became a focus of mine. I've had significant improvement 95-99% better with improvement in energy...

I second this and wish your comment were pinned.
Too much exercise makes me feel grumpy and tired.
I really value my college physiology😊. And am thankful that there are no genetic issues in my kids and grandkids. We are all on organic foods, exercise, and avoid chemicals whenever possible. I would love to know how giving kids 90 vaccines is good for their mitochondria.

Really interesting when talking about positive thought and mitochondrial health. I have stage 2 Emphysema and though I lack lung capacity, perhaps 60%, the combination of staying healthy and my state of mind helps my well-being. 1. I move every day, most days extend my capacity. 2. Eat healthy and miss meals. 3. Stay positive and active with creative pursuits. I'm 65, 75Kilo and fit
In regard to the experiments Dr. Picard mentioned in which mitochondrial networks within cultured cells became fragmented following an excessive supply of energy, it would be interesting to see this experiment repeated with variations in the type of energy source supplied (e.g., pure fat vs. pure carbs vs. fat and carbs in varying proportions) and with variations in the starting conditions of the cells (e.g., fat-adapted vs. not fat-adapted).
I know that teaching conditions are incredibly challenging and that they don’t receive nearly enough resources and pay for what they do, however the issues with children discipline go both ways, imho. Adults need to learn how to talk to children just as much as children need to learn to speak to adults. As a psych RN that dealt with acute mental illness patients our communication skills are key to deescalation to the vast majority of potentially combative situations. These same skills need to be taught to teachers and used in classrooms. I saw a lot of these clear communication challenges between teachers & kids when my daughter was in school. Yes, this places more accountability in teachers but they’re the adults and these skills will go a long way in assisting teachers which will ultimately help kids and their parents.
The. MIND is NOT in the body
The brain is not the mind.
All energy comes from your thoughts (the mind)
Take care what you think about.

Amazing information. Welcome to the 21st Century. This sounds like understanding the influence of our medications on our Mitochondria might help us to solve the root causes of our diseases.
Great information. Enlightening experience listening to this podcast. Thanks so much for this crucial knowledge 🙏🙏🙏
Not eating too much - particularly sugar, because mitochondria produce energy by aerobic respiration (another reason exercise helps biogeneis and maintain mitochondria health) but cancer uses sugar fermentation for energy through anaerobic respiration, even when in the presence of oxygen. Sugar is fine when used for energy, preferably complex carbs (sugar), but too much causes many problems beyond the scope here. Allowing a fasting state has many benefits, including triggering autophagy and mitophagy, which recycles damaged and bad mitochondria to make new ones that are healthy, before disease sets in.
Thank you so much for such n inspiring discussion!
So well explained, such a thoughtful posting. Learned so much. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
I realized Mitochondria and their creb cycle are the key to our cellular lives. This is a basic function responsible for our human, plant, and animal life,
IMO, this guy is really onto something big!
What an amazing channel.
I would be very interested to know from Dr Picard how, if at all, the mNRA vx effected the mitrochondria in the blood.
There has been some studies on the effect of Near Infra Red light (the part of sunlight that gives you heat - about 700-80nM) helps to correct mitochondria dysfunction through melatonin production in the cell for combating Reactive Oxygen Species in the cell. NIR can penetrate into the body and reach into the cell just by being outside during daytime.

Tips from Dr Picard:
1. Move! Exercise encourages your body to produce new mitochondria (up to 2x)
2. Don’t eat too much, it’s ok to be hungry - intermittent fasting is great for your mitochondria
3. A new idea being proposed is possibly your mental state can change your mitochondria (ie., do what you can to lead a life that makes you happy!)
i feel positive and good maybe one day a week 😌 i been questioning this lately.
So interesting! This is a discussion I'll save to rewatch later.
I am going on two years of mitochondria damage due to two courses of Cipro for a gut infection. It has left me with ruptured tendons, brain fog, fatigue, worsened 34:08 food allergic reactions, visual disturbances, chronic pain, muscle weakness, neuropathy, among other things. I have spent a small fortune on supplements to repair the damage, but have reached a plateau of improvement and seem stuck. I forced myself to move even though I hurt everywhere. On crutches for six months, I now can walk three miles, force myself to climb stairs, but one leg drags and wobbles, dangerous when climbing stairs. I eat a healthy lowr calorie diet, avoid sugar, only use olive oil, organic produce and grains, little high fat animal protein, but my recovery has halted at this level. I tire easily, by evening am done in, and need to eat three meals a day. Fasting makes me sick. Is there a supplement that can stimulate new mitochondria production? I am coping, but frustrated that a doctor would prescribe such a toxic medication to treat an infection that a safer antibiotic would have worked. I am 74. Before the Cipro, I hiked 5 miles a day, was active socially, did creative writing projects, dabbled in learning to paint, and a lot of that has been put on the shelf. Just writing is difficult,putting thoughts in order, expressing myself clearly, is challenging . Memory loss worsens as the day progresses. I am determined to fully recover, I am not giving up. Any helpful advice is appreciated. Thanks.
You have drunken the koolaid and much of what has been suggested as “healthy” is actually incorrect.
You say you are low calorie-wrong as calorie counting isn’t helpful
You’ve cut sugar great.
How about carbs and grains?
You say you are eating organic produce and grains.
Fruits have fructose that cause non alcoholic fatty liver, veggies are fine if low carb. Organic grains??-thats nothing but carbs.
Then you say you limit high fat animal products. Wrong again. High saturated fat is beneficial for the human body. Cholesterol is a misnomer, the key metric is keeping insulin spikes less frequent and triglycerides levels low.
You are 74 and much of the knowledge you carry stems from the Food pyramid and guide which is mostly not based on science and only to support certain farming industries.
Try ketogenic to get carbs down.
Try learning about full carnivore to actually heal the body.
Cipro and any GI ailment is best treated with a low residue diet just as recommended to patients who have just had a GI surgery.
The ultimate elimination diet is ground beef, whole eggs, and a bit of avocado and mushroom.
Try that for a month and see how you feel. At this point you have nothing to lose other than disrupting the misinformation and cognitive dissonance from the brainwashing We have undergone since the 70s. I am over 50 and only changed my mind from knowledge gained on YT after personally being sick and inflamed, looking for answers.
Have you looked at the ketogenic diet info on this channel? It's backwards to what the food guide states. Grains aren't considered healthy, nor is little saturated fat! Not being a ble to fast is a good indicator your body is not able to use fat efficiently.currently and that needs to be challenged. I'd strongly.recommend ketogenic diet fornthat purpose as it adapts you to using fat and will take a few days to get into ketosis and allows for more autophagy while you're eating and will keep you full when not promoting longer fasting which in future can extend.
Grains are awful on the gut. Hands down that's the first step that needs to go. Low fat doesn't promote brain health. Literally fo opposite there's benefit over low fat and studies to show it!
High fat high salt
High animal fat and meat focus (1.2g/kg a day)
Eat low.carb veggies as long as you get minimum protein each day.
I have heds which affects all connective tissues and greatly.in the joints. I'm disabled from it and we avoid cipro as we already got issues there. I hear you, it really blows :( this helped me get.my energy and vigor for.life back. Looking at mitochondria is the right place and ketogenic diet is next step.
Thanks for your feedback. I do not know what nad iv is put will look it up. I am ready taking pqq. It has helped. The keto diet is a no go. I am highly allergic to most meats, and chlorophyll. Eggs, chicken, beef, pork, turkey, Buffalo, all make me swell and itch and cause bursitis. Fasting causes my blood sugar to plummet. Peanuts, almonds, other nuts also problematic. So the diet is restricted due to lifelong food allergies. Thank you for your considerate comment. All are appreciated.
Ketogenic diet can be a vegetarian diet with what ever foods you can tolerate as long as they are not processed. The key to the ketogenic diet is the proportion of fat has to be 65% or over. Choose high protein vegetables to make up the protein component but add vitamin and mineral supplements to a vegetarian or vegan diet. Do not forget vitamin b12 supplements. Hope this helps.
Also avoiding all sensitive foods for at least 3 months and try adding one at a time every 10 days if you want to try. You may need help from a dietician in order to go in an elimination diet.
I am so sorry to hear this. I think I would explore these possibilities if I were in your shoes. 1) A good, experienced kinesiologist. Kinesiology is both diagnostic and also shows what strengthens your body and what weakens it (including any supplements you're taking or that they are considering prescribing). 2) Eden Energy Medicine, now rebranding Eden Method. Again, a good, experienced practitioner can find out a tremendous amount about what's going on and rebalance your body's energies including deeper energy systems not covered by conventional medicine. Sessions can be done remotely by experienced practitioners if there's noone near you. Donna Eden can see energy and made a powerful recovery from MS decades ago. Her method incorporates elements of kinesiology. 3) A functional medicine practitioner with training in this area. 4) A good, experienced Chinese Medicine Doctor. The Chinese medicine system can deal successfully with many chronic conditions that Western medicine is at a loss as to what to do about, and has thousands of years of history behind it. The Emperor's physician used to only be paid if the Emperor was healthy! Wishing you well
I appreciate Dr. Picard's caution and concern with the use of medications not clearly understood by those prescribing them. It could be that they are only trying to treat the symptoms rather than focusing on what is causing the mitochondrial dysfunction in the first place, which is something we all can do by ourselves without medical intervention. @36:40, the doctor hit on the major cause of mitochondrial dysfunction, saying the amount of sugar overwhelms the mitochondria. I believe this is true and observable in a petri dish, but is it the quantity or the type of sugar, or both? Dr Lustig teaches that sugars consumed are absorbed differently at different stages of digestion. The initial sugar absorption is fructose, which goes directly to the liver, and that is where the damage is done. He teaches that a healthy digestive tract and biome is the key to cellular level health, and insoluble and soluble fiber is likely the easiest and most effective mechanism a person can take to preserve their mitochondrial health. As best I can describe, it works by preventing the early absorption of fructose by absorbing the sugars, which allows them to reach the lower part of the digestive tract where the good bacteria can feed on the glucose, expel the fructose, and disseminate the energy to all the cells in the body as designed.
As well as the valuable information given by Dr. Picard in this video, Doctor Lustig has many videos on the subject with scientific data to back it up.
Fantastic interview. Thank you so much. Bless you. 🙏🤍
Dr Pelz has videos that talk about what happens after different lengths of time when fasting.
Capture your 10-year-olds’ attention by telling them about the resident aliens with their own DNA they received from their mothers and is the reason we could trace our ancestor to the first mother. I learned that mitochondria have their own DNA long after I learned about mitochondria and it’s still one of the most exciting thing I ever learned.
I wonder if HIIT , sprinting and such has a different effect on mitochondrial supply from aerobic training ? If we look at long distance runners compared to 100 meter runners the muscle growth is very different . Even looking at 200 meter vs 100 meter runners displays a massive difference. It seems reasonable to me that loooooooong distance running id depleting your energy where as with sprinting you seem to be energised once you catch your breath.
However I have inflicted Achilles tendonitis to on myself - mainly due to idiocy. I recommend lots of strength training of the Achilles area prior to sprinting . Especially if you are only young in your heart , mind and soul. ......

I am glad to hear these confirmations of 3 major potential lifestyle measures to support mitochondria. Thank you so much!
How can we assess our mitochondrial health with testing?
That's tough to do outside a research facility. But hopefully researchers will help change that!
I am not an expert, so take this with a huge grain of salt, but it seems to me that anything that measures energy efficiency, commonly known as fitness, would work. There are two common ways to do this. VO2 max is one but it requires a treadmill and sophisticated equipment, though it is more accurate. The other is heart rate recovery rate. Exercise until you are at your max heart rate [1] and record that heart rate. Then rest and record your heart rate 1 minute later. The difference between those two numbers is a measure of your energetic health. The higher the difference, the faster your body recovers, the more fit you are, and the healthier your mitochondria are. This is easy to do without anything other than a stopwatch, though less accurate, really only an approximation. You can sprint, do burpees, run on the spot, etc. (web search HIIT for alternatives), to get up to your max heart rate. A longer version is to measure how long it takes to get from your max heart rate to your resting heart rate, but the essence is captured in the simpler version and it doesn't take as long. It can take many minutes to reach resting heart rate, as the decrements decrease with time.
1. Be careful with this, if you are in very poor shape and overdo the exercise intensity, you can actually give yourself a heart attack. Start slowly. Maybe walk for 20 minutes (10?, 5?, 1?), measure your heart rate, and then rest for a minute and measure it again. As you get fitter, increase the intensity of the exercise to raise your heart rate slightly each time. From what I've read, dropping 25 bpm in the first minute is reasonable fitness for the average person, though elite athletes will be much higher, maybe three or four times that. For example, an elite athlete might have a max heart rate nearing 200 bpm, and drop as much as 100 bpm in the first minute. Depending on your age, this might be an impossible target, as max heart rate drops with age, even for elite athletes. You can find approximations of max heart rate online, for a given age (a simple, rough formula is 220 - your age).

Amazing insight
Fascinating interview!
Your disclaimer 2 minutes in...
I totally disagree !!! NOT consulting a "health care professional" (my doctor) actually saved my life.
For all of you, who are still sitting on the fence when it comes to diet and health.... here is a piece of logic, nobody can argue with.
When you do something a certain way, and it does not give you the expected results... actually makes it worse... do something else.
If you are in bad health and you are getting worse every day... educate yourself and take charge of your own body.
It is ridiculous to expect, that a doctor after a few minutes makes a life or slow death decision, while he gets paid one way or another...
With other words, "I know my body better than any doctor ever will".
Virtually all chronic illness is caused by bad nutrition...
It is the sugar stupid.... it is really that simple.
Thank you, helpful interview!
