And your key to vibrant health may be quitting these so-called superfoods. After suffering for decades from chronic health problems, nutrition educator Sally K. Norton, MPH, discovered that the culprits were the chemical toxins called oxalates lurking within her “healthy,” organic plant-heavy diet.

We may believe that we are the masters of our fates, but in reality, we are at the mercy of hundreds of trillions of single-celled organisms that exert control over every aspect of how our minds and bodies function. These are the diverse species of microbes that work together synergistically to communicate with each other and with every system in our bodies. You are your microbiome’s home, and it wants to take care of you, but first you have to protect it. In Gut Check, Dr. Steven Gundry reveals the emerging science proving that Hippocrates was right—all disease begins in the gut.

Cancer as a Metabolic Disease addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the hallmarks of cancer, and thus his theory was discredited. This audiobook aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requiring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention.

Are you taking calcium or vitamin D? This book could save your life! Learn the secret to avoiding osteoporosis and heart disease. Millions of people take calcium and Vitamin D supplements thinking they're helping their bones. The truth is, without the addition of Vitamin K2, such a health regimen could prove dangerous. Without Vitamin K2, the body cannot direct calcium to the bones where it's needed; instead, the calcium resides in soft tissue, like the arteries, leading to a combination of osteoporosis and atherosclerosis, or the dreaded "calcium paradox".

World renowned scientist, Dr. Gerald Pollack, takes us on a fantastic voyage through water, showing us a hidden universe teeming with physical activity - providing simple explanations for everyday phenomena, which you have inevitably seen but not really understood. Have you ever wondered how do clouds made up of dense water droplets manage to float in the sky? Why don't your joints squeak as they rub together? Why do you sink in dry sand, but not in wet sand? Pollack uses a recent and fundamental scientific finding - EZ water - to help explain these and many other head-scratchers.
Publisher's Summary
The book has information for patients and practitioners on optimizing mitochondrial function for greater health and longevity.
Why do we age? Why does cancer develop? What's the connection between heart failure and Alzheimer's disease or infertility and hearing loss? Can we extend lifespan, and if so, how? What is the exercise paradox? Why do antioxidant supplements sometimes do more harm than good? Many will be amazed to learn that all these questions, and many more, can be answered by a single point of discussion: mitochondria and bioenergetics.
In Mitochondria and the Future of Medicine, naturopathic doctor Lee Know tells the epic story of mitochondria - the widely misunderstood and often-overlooked powerhouses of our cells. The legendary saga began over two billion years ago, when one bacterium entered another without being digested, which would evolve to create the first mitochondrion. Since then, for life to exist beyond single-celled bacteria, it's the mitochondria that have been responsible for this life-giving energy. By understanding how our mitochondria work, in fact, it is possible to add years to our lives, and life to our years.
Current research, however, has revealed a dark side: many seemingly disconnected degenerative diseases have tangled roots in dysfunctional mitochondria. However, modern research has also endowed us with the knowledge on how to optimize its function, which is of critical importance to our health and longevity.
Lee Know offers cutting-edge information on supplementation and lifestyle changes for mitochondrial optimization, such as CoQ10, D-Ribose, cannabinoids, and ketogenic dietary therapy and how to implement their use successfully.
Mitochondria and the Future of Medicine is an invaluable resource for practitioners interested in mitochondrial medicine and the true roots of chronic illness and disease as well as anyone interested in optimizing their health.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Excellent book
Really enjoyed this book. Very informative. Avoids dumming down the content by giving clear explanations of biological processes so that both those with and without a medical/science background can understand and benefit from the information. The narrator also added value with a clearly enunciated but relaxed and pleasant performance, making this an enjoyable book to listen to.

The chapter on evolution was a bit much
The chapter on evolution and religion lumped all religion and belief into one and claimed compatibility with evolution theory (it is a theory). This just made me question the authors ability to reason and had me questioning him throughout the entire book. despite your position on evolution theory, it is not difficult to see how, in Christianity for example, there is a difference between the beliefs in macro evolution (evolution theory) and micro evolution (Christian belief)... a massive difference. the difference between a wolf to a poodle and a rock to an elephant.
the rest of the book was fantastic but had to mention this part.

Mind blowing book
I'm not a physician, I'm a high school drop out who loves learning about the human body and health. I had to replay the first chapter literally 10 times just to truly grasp cell structure.
The information in this book is rich and the narrator was great. At first I thought his way of talking way a bit exaggerated but it grows on you and he keeps you engaged.
I love this book and I'll probably go through it again lol
EDIT: I've now repeated it 5 times and some chapters 10-15 times. This book is insane!

Amazing insight into the biology of Mitochondria
Firstly this book is very heavy if you do not have a biology and more of a medical background. I thoroughly enjoyed the clear narration and gained a lot of understanding of how important Mitochondria is for virtually everything!!! In medical school we just touch the very basics of mitochondria in biochemistry physiology and some mitochondrial diseases. This has made me want to go deeper into biochemistry as well. After all, we are all group of specialised cells run by chemical reactions and ATP !!

Fascinating and informative
There's a lot to digest so I decided to listen a second time. Definitely time well spent for anyone who wants to increase their healthspan.
This is the only work I have read that has explained the Why? of why exercise and calorie restriction extend healthy life whereas excess/poor food and a sedentary lifestyle shorten healthspan.

Fascinating and in-depth
I am so intrigued by the current research on mitochondria and this book brings some fascinating, in-depth insights into many of the things I’ve only heard about briefly. I really enjoy delving deeper into the biological mechanisms involved in mitochondrial formation and function. I did have to slow the timing of the audio to 0.9x to keep up though!
