102. Hacking the Mitochondria - How Chlorophyll Metabolites + Sunlight May Stimulate ATP Production & Enhance Longevity, & My Specific Protocol

24 minutes

Exploring the science behind chromophores, we unravel how these molecular entities selectively absorb specific wavelengths of light and can become "activated." As a result of this photoactivation, chlorophyll metabolites within the human body, when combined with sunlight exposure, MAY, according to several studies, have interesting and profound implications for cellular energy production and longevity.

Topics:

1. Introduction to the Topic

- Importance of ATP production

- When chromophores are stimulated by light?

- Accessibility to red light therapy panels

- Enhancing sunlight absorption

2. Understanding Chromophores

- Definition and function

- Molecular structure and electron configuration

- Selective absorption of wavelengths

- Example: Methylene blue

3. Differentiating Types of Reactions

- Focus on chlorophyll metabolites' integration within cells and mitochondria

4. Role of Chlorophyll Metabolites in ATP Production

- Overview of ATP production in mitochondria

- Interaction of chlorophyll metabolites with CoQ10

- Photoreduction of quinones and, specifically CoQ10 in the electron transport chain

5. Specific Chlorophyll Metabolites and ATP Synthesis

- Focus on chlorin p-a

- Activation through photon absorption

- Review of the mechanism of ATP synthesis stimulation

6. Light Requirements for Chlorophyll Activation

- Necessary wavelengths for activation (around 670 nm)

- Comparison of red light therapy and natural sunlight

- Evidence of chlorophyll activation under sunlight. Is natural sunlight enough to activate the metabolites in this case?

7. Penetration of Light in Biological Tissues

- Attenuation of light in human and animal tissues

- Penetration depth in various tissues

8. Effects of Chlorophyll on Cellular Biology

- Increase in ATP in isolated animal mitochondria

- Extension of lifespan in worms (up to 17%)

9. Conclusion and Personal Protocols

- Need for further research

- Personal supplementation protocols

- Personal integration of chlorophyll supplementation with sun exposure for enhanced ATP production.
