Every tablet you swallow is either building your cells or doing nothing. If you're exhausted, foggy, constipated, and watching your health decline as you get older, the answer might be simpler than you think. Two algae. Two jobs. Nutrition in, toxins out.
In this episode:
- Why 75% of the American food supply is ultra-processed and even your fresh produce has 50% less nutrition than it did 50 years ago.
- The two-sentence explanation of why spirulina and chlorella work: nutrition in, toxins out.
- Why your mitochondria are the real reason you have brain fog, fatigue, and weight gain after 40—and why women get hit twice as hard as men.
- The SOD connection: what your body stops making after 30, why it matters for Alzheimer's prevention, and why spirulina has 6,000 times more of it than cabbage.
- Why the blue pigment in spirulina can detect cancer cells and eject them—and why chemotherapy companies are now using it.
- The serotonin fact nobody talks about: 80% of it is made in your gut, not your brain, and why women store 52% less of it than men.
- Why chlorella before bed is the move, and what it's doing while you sleep.
- Why 95% of algae on the market has been heat-processed into uselessness, and the one thing to look for in a brand.
- How to dose it for yourself, your kids, and even your newborn.
- The 87-year-old who joined CrossFit after starting spirulina and chlorella.
If you only do one thing from this episode, start taking spirulina. Your brain and your mitochondria will feel it.
