It's stuck — and there's a very specific reason why. 94% of U.S. adults have some degree of mitochondrial dysfunction. That means the majority of people walking around right now can't make energy efficiently — and they're using caffeine, stimulants, and willpower to paper over it. Dr. Scott Sherr has spent over a decade figuring out why, and more importantly, how to actually fix it. Board-certified in internal medicine and one of the leading voices in health optimization medicine, Dr. Sherr introduces one of the most important concepts Dr. G has heard in a long time: the sympathetic spiral of doom — the feedback loop between chronic stress and mitochondrial breakdown that keeps you wired, exhausted, and unable to heal no matter what you try. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why more caffeine, more supplements, and more biohacks are making the spiral worse — and what to do instead • The GABA system: why depression and anxiety may have nothing to do with serotonin, and everything to do with your brain's brakes failing • The leaky gut → leaky brain connection most doctors have never heard of • How methylene blue works at the mitochondrial level — and why dose and source matter more than you think • What it actually means to optimize your health back to the resilience of your 20s — at any age If you've seen 10 doctors, tried every supplement, and still feel like you can't recover — this episode is the missing piece.
