Listen Later

In this episode, Coach Debbie Potts sits down with Dr. Zulia Frost, Co-Founder and Medical Director of Recharge Health, to explore how targeted red light therapy can support mitochondrial repair, thyroid function, gut health, liver detoxification, and overall metabolic resilience for adults navigating midlife.

If you are in your 40s, 50s, 60s, or beyond and want to improve your energy, metabolism, hormone balance, digestion, and recovery, this conversation provides the education, tools, and strategies you need to optimize your health from the inside out.

Zulia explains the science behind photobiomodulation, how red and near-infrared light activate cellular energy pathways, and why FlexBeam delivers medical-grade targeted therapy directly to organs and tissues that need it most. We break down the research on mitochondrial function, Hashimoto's and thyroid hormone conversion, gut inflammation, motility challenges, liver congestion, stress recovery, and active aging.

This episode is especially relevant for midlife athletes, high performers, over-40 adults experiencing metabolic slowdown, and anyone wanting to age with strength, clarity, and vitality.
