Episode #268: Dr. Hemal Patel: FINALLY an Accurate Home test to measure mitochondrial function, how to get a better score on your next test, and much much more!
Has measuring mitochondrial health always seemed out of reach? Not anymore! In this Longevity episode, I am joined by Dr. Hemal Patel to discuss groundbreaking research that allows us to assess mitochondrial function through a simple at-home blood test.
We discuss how practices like meditation, breathing exercises, and even attending immersive retreats can dramatically improve mitochondrial health in as little as a week. We also dive into cell membrane composition and Dr. Patel's personal story of how he integrates meditation into his nightly routine for better sleep and creativity!
Dr. Hemal Patel is a Tenured Professor and Vice-Chair for Research in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of California, San Diego, and has a dual appointment as a VA Research Career Scientist and VA Research Pharmacologist at the VA San Diego Healthcare System. He is also the Chief Scientific Officer for Versea Discovery. He has made seminal contributions in shaping new investigation areas on defining the impact of membrane structure on cell, organ, and organismal physiology and metabolism with implications for cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, heart failure, diabetic cardiomyopathy, aging, pulmonary hypertension, cancer, and neurodegeneration.
