The Untold History & Science Behind Deuterium-Depleted Water & How It Could Transform Your Mitochondrial Health & Longevity


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski takes listeners on a fascinating deep-dive into the origins, science, and cutting-edge clinical research behind deuterium-depleted water (DDW) — specifically Litewater, the most depleted DDW on the planet at just 10 ppm.

 

Drawing from a decades-long historical arc, from the Big Bang to Soviet gerontology labs to modern mitochondrial biochemistry, Dr. Mike breaks down how deuterium impacts ATP production, aging, longevity, cancer metabolism, and cellular repair. He also explains why deuterium depletion may be one of the strongest yet overlooked tools for increasing mitochondrial function and long-term resilience.

 

Listeners also get a rare behind-the-scenes look at Victor Sagalovsky’s A Brief History of Deuterium-Depleted Water and the scientific breakthroughs that shaped the modern DDW field. Dr. Mike shares how BioLight’s updated BioBlue formulas now use 100% Litewater, and why lowering deuterium levels below 120 ppm may be a cornerstone of anti-aging protocols.

In This Episode, Dr. Belkowski Covers:

 

💧 The history of deuterium — from the Big Bang to modern biology

🧬 How deuterium interferes with ATP synthase and accelerates aging

⚡ Why lowering body deuterium levels can enhance mitochondrial efficiency

🩺 Clinical research showing DDW’s anti-cancer and longevity effects

🧊 The surprising role of glacial meltwater and longevity hotspots

🔬 How Light Water achieves 94–97% deuterium removal

☀️ How diet, fasting, and light exposure also influence deuterium levels

🧪 Why all updated BioBlue formulas now use 100% Litewater

Key Quotes from Dr. Mike

“Drinking deuterium-depleted water is one of the most potent ways to improve mitochondrial function long term.”

 

“There’s a definitive line in the sand: get your systemic deuterium levels below 120 ppm and you’re in a very good place for longevity.”

 

“Light Water’s production process creates some of the best water in the world — at ten parts per million.”
