In this episode of The One Thing Podcast, Dr. Adam Rinde and Dr. Paul Anderson discuss a powerful concept shaping chronic illness care: the Cell Danger Response (CDR).

If you or someone you know is dealing with persistent fatigue, inflammation, long COVID, or autoimmune challenges, this discussion offers deep insights into what may be happening at the cellular level—and why traditional approaches often fall short.

Dr. Anderson explains the phases of the CDR, how it affects mitochondrial function, and why some patients feel worse when they start treatment. They also explore supportive therapies, the importance of gentle intervention, and how to approach healing sustainably and individually.

Key topics:

• What is the Cell Danger Response?

• How CDR connects to chronic illness, PTSD, and autism

• Common treatment pitfalls and how to avoid them

• When to support vs. when to detox

• The future of mitochondrial medicine and personalized healing

Whether you're a practitioner or navigating your own health journey, this episode provides clarity, compassion, and actionable takeaways.
