Mitochondria Tune Up? With Kristina Kristen

Mitochondria Tune Up? With Kristina Kristen

In this episode, Adiel sits down with wellness consultant and author Kristina Kristen [https://www.kristinakristenwellness.com/] for a wide-ranging conversation on mitochondria — the "bioengines" she argues most of us understand far too little about. Together they explore how to use sunlight wisely by building up a "solar callus" rather than burning, why morning and late-afternoon red and infrared light matter, and how vitamin D and nitric oxide both depend on the very UV rays we've been taught to fear. They get into the modern challenge of blue light at night and its toll on sleep, the hidden health cost of energy-saving LED lighting, and the hormetic stressors — fasting, cold plunges, heat, and exercise — that push mitochondria to grow stronger and multiply. Along the way: chronic stress and cortisol, why "metabolism" and "mitochondria" are really the same story, brown fat, and a fresh take on what the Blue Zones studies might be leaving out. Kristina also shares the story behind her two books: 10,000 Suns [https://kristinakristen3.systeme.io/28-day-mitochondria-reset], a 28-day mitochondria reset built around her NEST framework (nutrition, exercise, sleep, toxin avoidance, and stress control), and Beyond Just Genes: Welcome to the Energetic Revolution [https://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Just-Genes-Revolution-Mitochondria/dp/B0FBKBZDZB].

Life Unleashed: Coming Home To Yourself For Greater Success And Personal Power With Blaise Kennedy

In this episode, Adiel is joined by Blaise Kennedy [https://www.blaisekennedy.com/], where they explore various topics about living life as a whole, integrated person, versus as an amalgamation of disparate parts. Blaise helps growth-oriented seekers turn spiritual insight into embodied change and healthier relationships. He brings grounded frameworks for people who feel stuck between awareness and real-life follow-through. Through this wide-ranging conversation, Blaise and Adiel discuss the ability for all of us to gradually return to embodied awareness—helping us develop the capacity to meet ourselves, our relationships, and our lives with greater coherence, presence, and depth.

The Biggest Wellness & Environment "Red Pill" Might Be Plastic

Adiel Gorel is joined by Dr. Chris DeArmitt [https://chrisdearmitt.com/], PhD, the leading authority on plastics, microplastics and the environment, in one of the most "red pill" conversations of the year. According to Dr. DeArmitt, plastics aren't as dangerous for humans or the environment as we think; or have been told for the past 40 years. Further, Dr. DeArmitt argues that many of the programs and technologies we use to combat plastic pollution are more dangerous than plastic itself. Sounds crazy? Dr. DeArmitt argues that this is because of a very successful propaganda campaign over several years to convince us that plastic needs to go, whatever the cost. Whether you agree or not, this is one episode you don't want to miss. At the very least, it will get you thinking.

He breaks down the transformative power of deuterium despite the public not knowing that much about it, particularly in treating the many metabolic diseases in the western world today. Prof. Dr. László also explains why excess deuterium can become a serious concern for human health and how it can yield significant biological effects if substituted for regular hydrogen.
