As many of you know by this point, this Triad is, what I believe to be at this point in time based on the information I have gathered, the three most efficient and efficacious ways to boost your mitochondrial function: red light therapy, methylene blue and carbon 60. The presentation I gave first explained why the mitochondria are the focal point of this Triad and justified why the crux of modern health and disease is predicated on mitochondrial function; or said another way, why mitigating and preventing mitochondrial dysfunction is the ultimate goal of wellness and longevity. The subsequent sections of the presentation are on RLT, MB and C60 and how they positively impact the mitochondria and, thus, can positively affect the vast majority of diseases and cancers.
So for today's episode, I decided to provide you with a front row seat to my presentation. Not a recording of the one I gave in Rome, but a personal The Red Light Report rendition, which has ended up being more comprehensive and detailed. Sit back and enjoy the first half of my presentation, which covers the impact of mitochondria on our overall health and red light therapy.

If you're like me, you look for high-quality information on such an exciting topic — particularly well written books. Long story short, there is a dearth of texts on C60 out there. But today's guest, Chris Campbell, is the author of one of those books: C60 Science: The God Molecule Hypothesis. And it's not just "another" book, Chris's take on C60 is very unique, yet exceptionally compelling. In his book, he takes deep rabbit holes into the history of C60 not just on earth, but in outer space where he posits C60 may have played a role in brining life to our planet. He also has unique insights into the special geometry of buckminsterfullerene (i.e., C60) and its potential quantum biology characteristics.
During today's conversation, Chris discusses the many topics from his book, including what The God Molecule Hypothesis means, the various properties and potentials of C60, his thoughts on C60 supplements, the potential of safely integrating C60 into water and much more!

But how is that possible if one of methylene blue's main actions is nitric oxide inhibition? How is that possible if nitric oxide is a free radical and an environmental pollutant and, thus, is effectively an "electron stealer"?
For whatever reason, I have never been able to get a straight answer from anyone on this topic. But serendipitously, I was recently reading a book that provided the most clearcut and sensible explanation that would allow for nitric oxide to be both "good" and "bad". The book is Methylene Blue: Magic Bullet: The Ultimate Mitochondrial Support, by Dr. John Lieurance. As I learned from the book, it turns out that nitric oxide is quite similar to how inflammation can be both a positive and a negative for our physiology; but with some additional nuances through in there. Today's episode is about nitric oxide and the roles it plays in our wellness and what the best strategies are for best harnessing the "good" nitric oxide while downregulating the "bad" nitric oxide.

When it comes to the quality of methylene blue for human consumption, it is incredibly imperative. The fact of the matter is that supplements can say that they utilize USP grade methylene blue, yet the lab results still show heavy metals — like mercury, lead and others — can still be higher than what you want to put in your body. I discuss this issue, which is likely more prevalent than we would all like to believe. However, it does verify the high-quality, ultra-pure methylene blue and leucomethylene blue that is sourced for BioBlue products.
I also cover two very interesting photobiomodulation research articles that look at unique aspects, and potential benefits, of red light therapy that have not been discussed before.The first article looks at osteoporosis in individuals with complete spinal cord injuries. However, the profound takeaway from that study is about serum vitamin D levels. The second study sheds light on photobiomodulation's impact on blood glucose levels. If more research can verify what was found, the demand for red light therapy will skyrocket (via pre-diabetics and diabetics).

In our conversation today, Dr. Sambataro details his path from centralized dentistry en route to the holistic counterpart and why the choice was so apparent to him in a time where is wasn't to virtually any of his contemporaries. As you can imagine, since he was biohacking decades before everyone else, he has accrued many hacks for health that are now also implemented into his biological dentist practice. Along with his professional practice, Dr. Sam is also opening a new wellness center that is focused on performance and longevity. He shares the fun tools and modalities that will be offered at the center.
From Dr. Sam's bio on his dental practice website: "There are many physicians that report nearly 80% of all illnesses are related to infections, toxicities, and imbalances in the mouth. I choose to focus on biological dentistry because I believe we are at the beginning of a fundamental shift in the practice of dentistry. A transformation that will shift the focus of dental practices away from the emergency treatment of symptoms towards compassionate, comprehensive and preventative biological care that truly embraces the philosophy of Hippocrates: 'First do no harm.' In this type of health-oriented dental practice, Dentists will become patients Primary Care Physicians."

In our conversation today, Chris details the mechanisms of how C60 works to improve mitochondrial function (most notably, the B.O.S.S. Theory) and why it could be a key molecule to help humans extend lifespan beyond our current expectations. He also outlines the unfortunate state of the C60 supplement space and how most supplements have a much lower concentration than they claim and that some even have ZERO C60 in their product at all! This is why he has trademarked the term ESS60, which delineates an ultra high purity C60 that is specifically made for human consumption; meaning, if you are purchasing a C60 supplement, then "ESS60" must be in the ingredients list. Otherwise, you can assume it is a subpar product.
Chris covers other interesting topics, such as how C60 is produced, his perspective on longevity and how long he believes he can live and whether or not immortality is possible, testimonials around ESS60, the upper limit for ESS60 consumption and much more!

As we learned from last week's episode, taurine has the following research-backed mitochondrial benefits:
- decreases mitochondrial-mediated reactive oxygen species formation
- reduces inflammation and oxidative stress
- enhances the mitochondrial membrane potential
- improves mitochondrial respiratory efficiency
- improves mitochondrial energy metabolism
- lessens mitochondrial permeabilization
- mitigates the release of cell death mediators
- helps sequester excess cytoplasmic calcium
In today's episode, we will review the following topics on taurine and the mitochondria from the aforementioned text book: the cardiovascular system, liver disease, taurine as an anti-aging compound, musculoskeletal disorders, the renal system, the digestive system, the reproductive system and the role of taurine for obesity and improving the quality of adipose tissue.

If you're like me, taurine may have a knee-jerk negative connotation due to its association with energy drinks. But if that's the case, I politely ask you to table that association as we head into this episode. The more I have learned about this mysteriously overlooked amino acid, and its science-backed efficacy for improving mitochondrial function in a myriad of way, the more I have gotten excited to report this information to you. Taurine is the real deal!
In this episode, I will be providing "knowledge snacks" from a textbook I recently read, "Taurine and the Mitochondrion: Applications in the Pharmacotherapy of Human Diseases." The chapters and information covered in part one include the synthesis, dietary sources, and mechanisms of action of taurine; taurine and the mitochondrion; and applications of taurine in the central nervous system disorders linked with mitochondrial impairment. Subsequent parts of this series will cover other diseases and body systems impacted by mitochondrial dysfunction and how taurine may play a pivotal role in mitigating, preventing and/or reversing aforementioned conditions.
If you found the information in today's episode particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge. Sharing is caring :)
