In this week’s episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski is joined by BioLight CMO Don Bailey, who takes over the mic to ask Dr. Mike the questions you’ve always wanted answered about one of the most foundational — yet misunderstood — pillars of health: redox potential.

What exactly is redox potential, and how does it impact your energy, aging, and healing? Dr. Mike breaks down how the modern world drains your body of electrons — and what you can do to recharge. From oxidative stress to grounding, water quality to quantum tunneling, this conversation connects the dots between light, electricity, and vitality at a cellular level.

Expect a powerful exploration of how redox balance determines everything from mitochondrial function to mood, recovery, and longevity — and practical tools to raise your “internal charge.”

Redox Potential 101 – What it means, how it’s measured in millivolts, and why “more negative” means better health.

Oxidation vs. Reduction – How too much oxidation leads to stress and disease, and how balance is key to healing.

Modern Electron Deficiency – The surprising ways EMFs, processed food, poor water, and even emotions strip electrons.

The Mitochondrial Connection – Why improving redox potential automatically enhances energy production and longevity.

Breathing, Stress & Redox – How proper breathing, meditation, and HRV impact your cellular charge.

Antioxidants & Electrons – Why 90%+ of your antioxidant power comes from your body — not your diet.

Quantum Biology & Energy Medicine – Exploring the quantum spin and tunneling that link methylene blue and mitochondrial repair.

Everyday Upgrades – Simple habits to raise your redox potential: grounding, sunlight, hydration, and better sleep.

In this week’s episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski sits down with Kashif Khan, founder of The DNA Company and author of The DNA Way. Kashif has pioneered the field of functional genomics, using DNA as a roadmap to optimize prevention, performance, and longevity.

Through his own healing journey and years of research, Kashif reveals how our unique genetic blueprint influences everything from mitochondrial capacity and detox pathways to hormone balance, brain health, and even how we age.

Expect a fascinating deep dive into the science of DNA, personalized health, and practical tools you can use today to align your lifestyle with your genetics.

Kashif’s Origin Story – How a personal health crisis and his mother’s recovery from arthritis inspired him to explore functional genomics.

Functional vs. Traditional Genetics – Why standard DNA reports are often unhelpful, and how functional genomics provides actionable insights.

The Science of Aging – How telomeres, oxidative stress, and gene expression drive aging — and why humans are genetically designed to live 120 years.

Nutrition & Genes – How your DNA determines whether you thrive on keto, plant-based diets, or specific nutrient forms like retinol vs. beta carotene.

Detoxification & Cellular Health – Why impaired pathways for glutathione, methylation, and mitochondrial function accelerate disease risk.

Hormones & Healthspan – Genetic factors in estrogen/testosterone balance, women’s hormone health, libido, fertility, and even body type.

Heart Rate Variability & Longevity – HRV as a powerful biomarker for parasympathetic health, metabolic reset, and mitochondrial resilience.

Cardiovascular & Mitochondrial Health – How genetics impact endothelial repair, cholesterol use, and red light therapy’s role in energy optimization.

Practical Genomic Strategies – Supplements, diet, and lifestyle hacks that align with your DNA to improve resilience, energy, and long-term vitality.

Kashif Khan:

“Functional genomics isn’t about telling you what disease you might get — it’s about showing you which pathways are broken and how to fix them.”

“Aging is simply your DNA instruction manual becoming illegible. Protect your DNA, and you protect your youth.”

“You don’t need to add 50 years to your life. You were already designed for 120 — you just need to stop taking years away.”

Dr. Mike Belkowski:

In this week’s episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski sits down with Victor Sagalovsky, co-founder of Litewater Scientific, to explore one of the most cutting-edge frontiers in mitochondrial optimization: deuterium depleted water (DDW). Victor, a longtime water researcher and pioneer in bringing ultra-low deuterium water to the world, shares how this overlooked isotope may hold the key to boosting energy production, extending healthspan, and even influencing genetic expression.

Expect a mix of quantum biology, practical lifestyle strategies, and a deep dive into the physics of water as Dr. Mike and Victor decode how lowering deuterium levels impacts mitochondrial health and human longevity.

Victor’s Origin Story – How a lifelong fascination with water led him to co-found Litewater Scientific and make deuterium depleted water accessible .

What is Deuterium? – Breaking down the isotopes of hydrogen and why deuterium disrupts mitochondrial ATP synthase, causing “stutters” in energy production.

The Mitochondrial Connection – How excess deuterium damages membranes, reduces proton motive force, and accelerates aging.

Deuterium & Disease – The striking links between high deuterium levels, cancer risk, and neurodegeneration.

Thresholds for Health – Why 120 ppm is considered the metabolic “line in the sand,” and how most modern water supplies far exceed this.

How DDW is Made – The massive proprietary columns and energy-intensive process behind creating 10 ppm and 5 ppm light water.

Psychological & Cognitive Benefits – Correlations between lower deuterium levels and improved mood, optimism, and confidence.

Lifestyle Strategies – Beyond DDW: fasting, ketogenic diets, hydrogen inhalation, and limiting overconsumption of food and water.

Practical Outcomes – How listeners can begin to measure, lower, and optimize their own deuterium levels for energy and longevity.

Victor Sagalovsky:

“Every eight seconds, an ATP synthase stutters because of deuterium—it’s the kiss and the elbow at the same time.”

“Our physiology is designed for about 120 ppm of deuterium, but most people are sitting at 150 or higher—that’s the metabolic danger zone.”

“When you deplete deuterium, your body thanks you. You feel lighter, both metaphorically and literally.”

Dr. Mike Belkowski:

“When I first tried Litewater, I felt an immediate pull—like my cells wanted more. It was magnetizing.”

“The implications for cognition, mood, and even neurodegeneration are massive when you consider how mitochondrial dense the brain is.”

🚨 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT! 🚨

Thanks to our new partnership with Litewater, soon all BioBlue liquids will be created with 100% Litewater Deuterium Depleted Water (10 ppm). When this occurs, all BioBlue liquids will increase in price by $10.
