Episode #112: The Connection Between Cell Danger Response & Mitochondrial Dysfunction
Podcast: LONGEVITY with Nathalie NiddamPublished On: Tue Aug 30 2022
Description: My guest this week is D.H. John Kim, Pharm.D., FAARFM and we discuss all things cellular health! What is cell danger response, mitochondria dysfunction, what supplementation and peptides are best to start with, how to balance essential fatty acids, a targeted approach to improving cellular membranes, and where to get testing and look for trained practitioners. We also talk about the connection of mycotoxins and nutrient depletion, specifically the connection to vitamin D. What makes this conversation so helpful is Dr. John is more than just a traditionally trained pharmacist, he specializes as a functional medicine pharmacist, so he's not just masking the symptoms or just treating the symptoms of disease, but instead utilizing an upstream medicine approach. No matter where you are on your health journey, Dr. John shares so many lifestyle and medical pearls in this one, including his top 3 tips to vibrant health!
