In this episode of The Energy Blueprint, I'm excited to share a recording of Dr. David Jockers interviewing me!

We cover a lot of fascinating topics, from how the mitochondria control our health and energy levels, the Cell Danger Response, how "stress" is often misunderstood, myths about antioxidants and plants (and the way things really work), and more.

Dr. Jockers and I discuss:

• What, exactly, is the cell danger response developed by Dr. Robert Naviaux? And why does it matter if you're experiencing symptoms that just won't budge?

• 2 major roles of mitochondria and how they act as "canaries in the coal mine" when it comes to your health

• The 3 stages of the cell danger response and why the first stage is crucial to understand if you have chronic disease, especially chronic fatigue

• How the body evolved to effectively deal with certain stressors but not others…and how any chronic stress might mean getting stuck in "wartime metabolism"

• A new way to understand stress's effect on your health—certain forms of stress aren't as problematic as you think and will even improve your health in incredible ways!

• The surprising ways you can increase your resilience—including the size, number, and function of your mitochondria!—and reduce your chances of getting stuck in the cell danger response

• The real story of why plant foods are so good for you…they don't act as antioxidants as most people think

• One of the most crucial pieces of information available for disease prevention and lifelong health…Ari reveals the secret he's been researching for over a year!
