Aluminum

Aluminum is present everywhere in modern environments and in this video we explore evidence linking aluminum exposure to damaging effects on the brain, including memory loss, neurodegeneration, and increased risk for diseases like Alzheimer’s.

Aluminum accumulates in neural tissues, bone, lung and connective tissue with widespread health consequences so it’s important to detoxify it.

Toxins | Core Series, ep 5

Toxins interfere with energy production by damaging mitochondria, the cell’s “power plants,” disrupting the electron transport chain, depleting essential cofactors like NAD⁺, and generating oxidative stress that impairs ATP synthesis.

This leads to reduced cellular energy output, compromised signaling, and increased fatigue or metabolic dysfunction throughout the body.

Micronutrients | Core Series, ep 4

Micronutrients, including essential vitamins and minerals, are critical for energy production because they act as cofactors and structural components in enzymatic reactions that convert food into ATP, the body’s usable energy form.

Without adequate micronutrient intake, cellular energy metabolism becomes inefficient, often resulting in fatigue and reduced physical and mental performance.

Calories and Macronutrients | Core Series, ep3

Adequate calories and the right macronutrient ratios maintain thyroid and mitochondrial activity, allowing efficient energy production and a strong metabolic rate .

Balanced intake of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats prevents hypoglycemia-induced cortisol and adrenaline surges, which reduces chronic stress hormone output and supports hormonal stability.

Types of Fat | Core Series, ep2

There are four main types of dietary fat: saturated, trans, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated, each differing by their chemical structure and health impact.

Choosing mostly saturated fats supports energy production and mitochondrial membranes by reducing inflammation and electron flow, while limiting polyunsaturated fats (especially linoleic acid) lowers the risk of chronic disease.

Follow the Sun | Core Series, ep1

Exposure to blue light boosts cortisol and suppresses melatonin, leading to disrupted circadian rhythms and poor sleep. Additionally, the earth's geomagnetic field also influences human biological rhythms through subtle biophysical signaling. Learning to harmonize with light and native EMF is the first layers of natural health.

Dairy | In the Kitchen

Dairy products are rich in protein, calcium, and essential vitamins and minerals that support strong bones, healthy muscles, and immune function. Regular consumption of dairy can help maintain bone density, promote growth, and provide key nutrients often lacking in other foods.

Fats | In the Kitchen

Fats are essential for energy, cell structure, hormone production, and the absorption of vital vitamins like A, D, E, and K. Including healthy fats in your diet supports cardiovascular, brain, and metabolic health for long-term wellness.

Protein | In the Kitchen

Protein is essential for building and repairing every cell and tissue in your body, including muscles, skin, and organs. Adequate protein intake also supports immune health, metabolism, and hormone regulation for optimal well-being.
