Are you a mitochondriac?  

If you don’t know what that means, no worries.

You will be after this episode.

Today’s guest, Dr. Jack Kruse – neurosurgeon, mito-hacker, and author of Epi-Paleo Rx: The Prescription for Disease Reversal and Optimal Health – joins me on today’s episode as we delve deep into the science of light, water, and magnetism.

Today’s episode is long and dense.

And the show notes… are even longer and perhaps more dense.

Jack and I talk water quality, electromagnetism, and why light – or better yet – human photosynthesis – may be more important than food.

But I think my favorite part of this episode is when I hit Dr. Kruse with a not-so-brief round of rapid-fire questions hidden near the end. So be sure to stick around.

Full disclosure: I forgot to plug in my fancy-pants podcaster mic and the sound quality isn’t what it should be. But sue me. What was I going to do? Tell Jack to start over? I don’t think so.

But in today’s episode you’ll learn:

• Why the time of year and the light you eat under may make food toxic,
• How WiFi effects carbohydrate addiction,
• The three essential pieces of equipment Jack recommends everyone buy, and…
• Much, much more.

Questions I Ask  

1. -How is your online work different from the rest of the ancestral health community?”
2. -What exactly is your perspective on light and how do we better understand its effects on our physiology?”
3. -How would I get to know, for myself, exactly what I should be eating depending on my location?”
4. -Are we to limit our food choices?
5. -Is there another option for someone like myself other than changing out the light bulbs inside my house?”
6. -So if we have the light situation figured out and we’re drinking spring water straight from the mountain, where do we go from there?”
7. -Is this part of some larger scheme?”
8. -Other than Andrew Marino’s book Going Somewhere, there are other books you would have us read – correct?”
9. -What are some of the things in your own practice that you do help people with?”
10. -Which laser device are you speaking of, by the way?”
11. -So it’s your passion that’s holding you back from actually going full bore into moving to a new location and taking this to the next level?

NOTE: Many more questions are asked and answered in the rapid-fire question round towards the end of this episode.
