Benfotiamine, b3 and magnesium did wonders for me for energy and my sleep. No naps needed and sleep nearly 8 hours now. It'll work quick, but I've noticed with others I've suggested it to that the more you've got chronic problems or have had them a long time, it appears that it will take longer to adjust to that higher level. Give it a bit of time if you don't see it right away. Your body took awhile to get there, give it time to get back to you.

Several recent studies (1 with mice and 2 with humans) have shown a strong correlation with longevity and Glycine/NAC. Each of these 2 supplements is very helpful on its own, but when taken together they have a synergistic impact on all of the most important biomarkers in the body, such as liver/kidney/heart function, blood sugar, blood pressure, lipids, etc. In the mouse study, the supplemented mice lived 24% longer and in the human study Glutathione levels increased back to youthful levels in elderly subjects. Glutathione is believed to be the most effective anti-oxidant in the entire body and taking Glycine/NAC is the best way to boost it.

Thank you for this very educational video. In the past few weeks I started having some dizziness, shortness of breath, congested head, and a bit of minor chest pain which come and go. The 2nd episode of the dizziness almost made me fainted so I went to ER thinking of a possible heart attack. There at the hospital they performed EKG, CT coronary angiogram, chest X-Ray, CT head scan, and those carotid/vertebral arteries to ensure no blockages etc. So, they didn’t find anything and released me and asked that I follow up with my PP to refer me to a local cardiologist and neurologist. While having those being scheduled, I did some researches and was able to gather some info about vitamin B’s deficiencies. So, I bought a vitamin B complex and started taking it. To my surprises, within two days, my dizziness has seemed to be gone away. Although I’m still experiencing congested head whenever I concentrate solving problems on a computer but it has been improved. Sometimes, having the knowledge and having someone like you educating the public is so priceless. I also have a brand new bottle of the Qunol ultra CoQ10 which I just took the 1st pill while watching your video in hope that all of these symptoms eventually will go away. I don’t think eating just healthy foods is justifiable for a complete balance of all the vitamins and nutrients that your body need and that we all need to supplement.

Are you under a lot of stress? What you described could also be caused by an anxiety attack. Nutrition for sure is number one, but if you are under extreme stress as well, you may have to do some stress reduction in your life. Go for ten minute walks when it's cool outside, like early morning, without any electronics. This will help reduce cortisol and give you a boost in energy. And keep to your B vitamins.

The best video I have seen in two years of researching all these. It is appalling that physicians in the US who routinely prescribe statins, specially to heart patients, fail to encourage patients to supplement in Co-Q10. After finding out about it myself I asked my 80 year old mother’s physician if she thought Co-Q10 would benefit her considering the statin and all the heart issues that she had. The doctor recommended 200mg daily. Thank you, you have my full trust.

It was actually research for myself because I was reluctant to take cholesterol medication and was researching its merits and the side effects when I learned that cholesterol medication does not magically zap them out of your system but instead they inhibit hepatic production of cholesterol, as as part of that, production of Co-Q10 is also inhibited. Then I thought about my mother who is always tired, takes a lot of medications that include cholesterol as well as hear medications, and contacted her doctor. My mother doesn't take the Co-Q10 that I bought for her because she doesn't believe in me, although she pretends, and because her doctor has not actually told her to take them in person. But, this is only a symptom of the problem with patient care in the US, and a good reason we need to be vigilant. Thanks to professionals like you, I have learned enough to take better care of myself and also to be able to better communicate with my providers. My new curriculum is to watch all of your videos.

I’ve recently got really sick out of nowhere, but I attribute it to being highly stressed from work and other personal factors. I consider myself to eat clean, but I’m probably deficient in certain vitamins, which I researched and suspected B vitamins being low. I’ve recently found B1 being a major factor in regulating the parasympathetic system and regulating stress. I’ve recently been supplementing B1 in the form of Benfotiamine at 300 mg twice a day with a raw form B complex. I’ve noticed within one week, my recovery has increased and overall energy and sense of well being/mood has been more stabilized. Alongside taking magnesium as well, I’ve been able to feel more rested after waking. It’s only been a week megadosing B1, but I feel like it’s been a big factor in helping my overall tiredness so far. Thank you for this video!

Personally I got terrific benefit when I switched from exclusive and long lower end zone 2 training to a (zone 3 training once a week + shorter but higher end zone 2 regular). Almost everything in my life literally switched to better like a flip of a switch. I went from struggling to sleep 6 hours to 7.5-9 hour daily sleep. Asthma and inflammation are far better in control too. Well I think the zone 3 is inefficient from mitochondrial level, but it certainly stimulates the growth of more muscle percent in the body which is beneficial. So adding in a bit of zone 3 maybe actually helps the zone 2 become more efficient. I have also seen that rest timings, nutrition timings and tuning with circadian rhythms helps a ton. For me eating eggs post workout (and no other protein rich food helped me for some reason) was also a major switch flip in fitness.

Hormesis in general is incredibly helpful to stimulate mito growth. Breathwork can do wonders if exercise is too difficult. Dr. Datis Kharrizan mentioned on Ari Whittens pidcast a few weeks back that by stimulating any body part, the entire body will rev up mito production. So if bed bound, move arms and legs. If that's too much, breathe with techniques which cause stress and gradually increase over time. My MCAS has improved (more stabilized) and my HRV now increase while i do breathwork like Wim's (can't recall the actual name of the method he based it on). Ill be a bit careful accrediting it all to the breathing though, as i also started zinc picolinate for pyroluria.

To just state the obvious: all the said put together means, we should eat meat. All the mentioned micronutrients are abundant in meat (but some are deficient or absent in plants), fat is the preferred macronutrient of the heart (and by the brain), and carb-oxidation is an inflammatory process.

Meat doesn't have that much B1 or B6 though, only slightly more abundant than in tofu. On the other hand, eating too much meat can raise cholesterol and block the blood vessles, which preventing the B vitamins from entering the cells. Nowadays the ketogenic diet and carnivore diet are all on the rise. We will see if cardiovascular diseases rate will increase or decrease among these populations soon enough in the future, probably in the next 10 years or so. But from what I have seen and experienced myself, this trend will just die out eventually. I don't know why some KZfaq channels such as What I've learned dared to say that meat consumption rate have decreased when you can just google it and see a substantial increase in meat consumption throughout the world and yes, in the US. Despite this, Vitamin B1, B6 and B12 deficiencies are becoming more common and heart disease rate are becoming more common as well(heart diseases are the leading cause of death in the US btw). Some people even downright demonize carbs even though we have been consuming carbs throughout history as well, and high whole-food carbs have been coincided with the rise of great civilization since time immemorial. Surely, if carbs were so harmful to our health, humans would have already removed it from our diet long time ago. Ironically, ever since the US started to increase their REFINED carbs intake since the 60s, heart diseases mortality rate is DECREASING, even though heart diseases rate keep increasing. This tells us 2 thing: 1. The US population and soon-to-be the entire world's health, is running on life support. Without the healthcare system that is drowning in debt, heart diseases mortality rate have already increased exponentially. 2. There is weak, very weak if at all, correlation between carbs and heart diseases. Ancel Keys and his team eveb conducted a multiple country study and it even showed the negative correlation between carbs and heart diseases. Back then refined carbs weren't as ubiquitous as nowadays though. Nowadays many people villianized Ancel Keys thinking that he was cherry picking his data, when in reality hardly any team could conduct such a large scale study on so many countries, even with enough fundings. Even till this day, such a study is still difficult to conduct but luckily we have a much larger database now.

A low diastolic pressure of 60 is too low and can cause you to pass out, lose consciousness. One of the easiest and immediate solutions is lay down to get more blood to the brain, but the actual need is to increase your blood volume by drinking about two glasses of water. Dehydration means your blood will lose water, and therefore become dense and not as easy to flow and reach the brain, especially due to gravity. This is why you might feel much better immediately after laying down, allowing for more blood to the brain. Some common reasons for a low diastolic pressure, like dehydration and weak leg muscles, include certain combinations of Rx medications taken at the same time. Check your blood pressure before taking your medication, and then check it again after 30 min, to check and compare your diastolic before and after pressure. If it lowers from 67+ down close to 60, then you should inform your doctor to decide what to do about your medication or doses. Avoid driving, until after getting your diastolic pressure back up close to 70, where most people have it at 80. It is common for more elderly people to have it in the upper 60s. I'm not a doctor, but this is what I had to learn to help my mother.

You really need to listen to discussions online regarding quantum biology. All of the bio chemistry is run by the physics of light, water and magnetism. Once you understand the physics, your recommendations will become better. Food is important, but is probably 5th or 6th on the list of the most important factors regarding human physiology. Dr Jack Kruse is a good starting place for this information.

The paradigm of pointing to mitochondria as the mechanism for energy levels has worked well for me. Dr. Chris Palmer's work has inspired me to try low carb/keto diets to improve cellular health and lower inflammation. I notice significant levels of mental clarity/energy and the reversal of metabolic syndromes. Mitochondria do even more than just provide energy, they control the chemical switches that determine our hormonal regulation. So important! Thanks for sharing some lifestyle basics to kickstart someones interest in optimizing mitochondrial function!
