    Methylene Blue + Light vs. Superbugs: A Surgical-Style Kill Switch for Antibiotic-Resistant Infections?

    In this Energy Code Deep Dive, we review a real-world, high-stakes study that sounds like sci-fi: using methylene blue + a specific wavelength of light to kill antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The clinical backdrop is pediatric perforated appendicitis, where bacteria can leak into the abdomen and lead to serious infections, long hospital stays, and heavy IV antibiotic use.   The paper tests photodynamic therapy (PDT): add a light-sensitive dye (methylene blue), shine 665nm light, and generate reactive oxygen species that inflict broad oxidative damage on microbes—often regardless of classic antibiotic resistance mechanisms. The results are striking for several major pathogens, with huge log reductions for E. coli and Streptococcus anginosus group, and more variable results for Pseudomonas aeruginosa.   We also keep it grounded: it’s in vitro, not yet a clinical protocol, and it didn’t test everything you’d want (biofilms, polymicrobial mixtures, anaerobes). But as a proof-of-concept, it’s a strong argument that light can be a precise medical tool—when parameters are engineered, not guessed. - Article Discussed in Episode: Photodynamic therapy with methylene blue effectively kills antibiotic resistant bacteria from pediatric patients with perforated appendicitis - Key Quotes From Dr. Mike: “Photodynamic therapy doesn’t rely on the same mechanisms as antibiotics, so it can work even when bacteria are resistant.” “You take a dye that’s light sensitive… add it to the bacteria, then you shine a specific wavelength of light.” “Methylene blue is the match, the light is the strike.” “A 6-log reduction is a millionfold reduction… basically a wipeout in this kind of lab setup.” “The key takeaway is resistance didn’t protect bacteria from this approach in most cases.” - Key points The study targets a big clinical problem: perforated appendicitis in kids → intra-abdominal infection risk, long hospitalization, heavy antibiotic exposure. The intervention is photodynamic therapy (PDT): methylene blue + 665nm light → reactive oxygen species that damage bacteria. PDT doesn’t rely on standard antibiotic mechanisms, so it can work even when bacteria are antibiotic-resistant. Methods: bacteria isolated from peritoneal fluid samples (30 patients) and tested under 4 conditions: control, dye-only, light-only, dye+light. Parameters matter: 665nm laser via fiber optic; low fluence rate (4 mW/cm²), total fluence 7.2 J/cm², 30 min; methylene blue 300 mcg/mL. Most prevalent organisms included E. coli, Strep anginosus group, Bacteroides fragilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa; polymicrobial infections were common. Results: ~5.86–5.91 log₁₀ reductions for E. coli and Strep anginosus group (massive kill); Pseudomonas showed smaller, variable reductions (~2.23 log₁₀). Limitations: in vitro, planktonic monocultures (not biofilms/mixed communities), anaerobes not tested in PDT setup, and parameter optimization still needed—yet the proof-of-concept is very promising for a localized surgical adjunct. - Episode timeline  0:19 — Intro sting + welcome back 0:32 — Topic hook: methylene blue + light vs antibiotic-resistant bacteria 1:06 — Clinical context: pediatric perforated appendicitis → infections, IV antibiotics, long stays 1:49 — PDT explained simply (dye + light → ROS; works beyond antibiotic resistance) 2:39 — Study design: 30 patient samples; isolate bacteria; 4 test conditions 3:13 — Technical parameters: 665nm laser/fiber optics; dosing details; why specs matter 3:50 — What bacteria were found; polymicrobial reality + resistance common 4:36 — Results: major kills for E. coli & Strep; Pseudomonas more variable 5:13 — Quick “log reduction” translation for normal humans 6:16 — Resistant vs susceptible strains: resistance didn’t protect (most cases) 6:54 — Big vision: localized surgical adjunct via laparoscopic illumination 7:24 — Limitations: in vitro, monocultures, no biofilms/mixed species, anaerobes not tested, optimization needed 8:19 — BioLight tie-in (light as precise tool; don’t wing it; specs matter) 9:29 — One-sentence takeaway - Dr. Mike's #1 recommendations:   Deuterium depleted water: Litewater (code: DRMIKE) EMF-mitigating products: Somavedic (code: BIOLIGHT) Blue light blocking glasses: Ra Optics (code: BIOLIGHT) Grounding products: Earthing.com   -   Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Website Instagram YouTube Facebook

    Urolithin A: The Human Data on ‘Anti-Aging’ (Mitophagy, Inflammation, Muscle — What Actually Changes)

    In this Energy Code Deep Dive, Dr. Mike Belkowski and moderator Don Bailey break down a 2024 systematic review, “Targeting Aging With Urolithin A in Humans," that focuses on human supplementation studies, not “eat pomegranate and hope.”    You’ll learn what Urolithin A is (and why your gut bacteria can make results wildly inconsistent), why it’s tied to “geroprotection,” and what the clinical evidence actually supports so far: dose-dependent anti-inflammatory signals, changes in mitochondrial/autophagy gene markers, and some improvements in strength/endurance — with a reality check on what didn’t move (ATP max, broad physical function, microbiome composition, body comp, cardiovascular markers in short windows).   Bottom line: promising, practical, but still early. - Article Discussed in Episode: Targeting aging with urolithin A in humans: A systematic review - Key Quotes From Dr. Mike & Don: “It’s like giving two people the same coffee beans, but one of them doesn’t own a coffee grinder!” "It may be improving the ‘quality control and efficiency settings’ more than raw peak horsepower.“ “So it’s like tuning the car so it runs smoother; not necessarily making the top speed higher.” "It’s not a ‘lose 20 pounds and become a triathlete’ pill.” - Key points Urolithin A is a gut-derived metabolite from ellagic acid foods (pomegranate, walnuts, berries), but many people don’t convert well. So food intake ≠ reliable levels. Supplementation “skips the gut lottery” and produces higher, more consistent plasma levels than food sources. The systematic review included 5 human studies / 250 healthy participants with 10–1000 mg/day for 28 days to 4 months. Biggest consistent theme: dose-dependent anti-inflammatory effects (some markers improve more at 1000 mg/day over 4 months). Mitochondria story is nuanced: it may improve gene expression signatures related to mitochondrial activity, autophagy, and fatty-acid oxidation—more “quality control” than peak power. What it didn’t reliably do: increase maximal ATP production, consistently boost biogenesis/dynamics markers, change gut microbiota composition, or meaningfully affect body metrics/cardiovascular outcomes in short trials. Muscle outcomes: some gains in specific strength/endurance measures (e.g., torque metrics; certain fatigue tests), but not universal (e.g., handgrip and broad function didn’t consistently improve). Safety in these studies looked clean (no serious adverse events attributed), but the overall conclusion remains: promising—but the human aging evidence is still young and needs longer/larger trials. - Episode timeline  0:27 — Welcome + urolithin A is trending + episode topic 0:45 — Don’s moderator frame: “does it work / worth it?” 1:04 — Paper ID (2024 systematic review; human supplementation) 1:25 — What urolithin A is + “gut lottery” 2:02 — Why supplement (higher/consistent levels vs food) 2:24 — Why it matters: mitophagy / healthier aging angle 3:05 — What’s included (5 studies, 250 people; 10–1000 mg; 28d–4mo) 3:34 — What improved (inflammation signals, gene markers, some strength/endurance) 4:06 — What didn’t (max ATP, microbiome, broad health/body metrics) 7:02 — Dosing/PK basics (peak ~6h; half-life ~17–22h; plateau ~7d) 7:40 — Safety summary 8:06 — Practical take + “promising but early” conclusion - Dr. Mike's #1 recommendations:   Deuterium depleted water: Litewater (code: DRMIKE) EMF-mitigating products: Somavedic (code: BIOLIGHT) Blue light blocking glasses: Ra Optics (code: BIOLIGHT) Grounding products: Earthing.com   -   Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Website Instagram YouTube Facebook

    Chemobrain Breakthrough? Near-infrared Light Pilot Study Shows Striking Cognitive Gains

    Welcome to the first Energy Code Deep Dive—daily research reviews translated into real life. Dr. Mike Belkowski and co-host Don Bailey break down a brand-new (Jan 3, 2026) pilot study on transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) for chemobrain (cancer-related cognitive impairment).   We define what chemobrain actually feels like, why there aren’t many proven treatments, and why researchers are exploring 810nm brain-directed light + an intranasal component to support mitochondrial energy (cytochrome c oxidase/ATP), inflammation balance, blood flow, and repair signaling.   Then we walk through the real-world clinical cohort (31 women), the protocol (weekly sessions, ~20 minutes, 10+ sessions), and the eye-opening outcomes: 29/31 improved, average cognitive scores rose dramatically, and a meaningful percentage normalized. We also keep it honest—small sample, retrospective design, no control group—so you know what’s promising now and what still needs randomized trials. - Article Discussed in Episode: Transcranial photobiomodulation for the treatment of chemobrain: new perspectives from a pilot study - Key Quotes From Dr. Mike: “It’s like your brain’s running 30 browser tabs and somebody started a video call in the background.” “Think of it like giving your brain cells a more efficient ‘charge cycle,’ not by caffeine, but by improving cellular energy production.” “This is why device specs aren’t nerd trivia. They’re the difference between a protocol and a placebo.” “This pilot study suggests that transcranial photobiomodulation may meaningfully improve chemobrain symptoms… but we still need larger controlled trials.” - Key points Chemobrain is real: attention, processing speed, verbal fluency, executive function — often lingering for years and impacting daily life. The study reviewed a Jan 3, 2026 pilot exploring tPBM as a potential supportive treatment when proven options are limited. Mechanism focus: light targets mitochondrial function (cytochrome c oxidase → ATP), with downstream effects on inflammation, blood flow, and repair signaling. Cohort: 31 women, average age ~52, post-chemo cognitive impairment; cognition tracked via FACT-Cog. Protocol: 810nm transcranial + intranasal, ~20 min/session, weekly, 10+ sessions; some also used whole-body PBM. Why 810nm: penetration matters; modeling suggests near-optimal depth to reach cortical targets; intranasal may help access harder-to-reach regions. Results were striking: average score improved from ~63 to ~101; 29/31 improved; ~29% normalized into typical range. Limitations & takeaway: retrospective + no control group (can’t rule out time/placebo), but the effect size supports moving toward larger randomized trials and reinforces that parameters/device specs matter. - Episode timeline  00:00 – Welcome to the first Energy Code Deep Dive + Don’s role as the “question-asker” 01:30 – What is chemobrain (symptoms + what it feels like day-to-day) 04:00 – Why treatment options are limited (the “brutal part”) 05:30 – What transcranial photobiomodulation is (plain-English translation) 07:30 – Biology: cytochrome c oxidase, ATP, inflammation, blood flow, repair signaling 10:00 – Study design + who they studied (31 women, France, post-chemo, FACT-Cog) 12:30 – Real-life impacts (reading, admin work, conversations, driving, fatigue, sleep) 14:30 – Protocol details (810nm, intranasal, weekly 20 min, 10+ sessions, some whole-body) 17:00 – Why 810nm + why intranasal (penetration + access) 19:00 – Results (63 → 101, 29/31 improved, ~29% normalized, QoL changes) 21:30 – Mood/anxiety/depression findings + interpretation 23:00 – Mechanisms: chemo injury pathways vs PBM supportive pathways 25:30 – Limitations (small sample, retrospective, no control, can’t split brain vs whole-body) 27:30 – Safety notes + “what do I do with this?” (talk to clinician; parameters matter) 29:00 – One-sentence takeaway + close (“Protect your energy / mitochondria”) - Dr. Mike's #1 recommendations:   Deuterium depleted water: Litewater (code: DRMIKE) EMF-mitigating products: Somavedic (code: BIOLIGHT) Blue light blocking glasses: Ra Optics (code: BIOLIGHT) Grounding products: Earthing.com   -   Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Website Instagram YouTube Facebook

    The Mitochondria Fix for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s & ALS (Therapies Moving Beyond Symptoms)

    Neurodegeneration can feel like an unstoppable train, where treatment is often about managing symptoms instead of fixing what’s breaking upstream. In this episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski and co-host Don Bailey unpack a 2025 review on mitochondrial dysfunction as a common thread across major neurodegenerative diseases and why this “cellular infrastructure problem” may be the leverage point researchers are finally targeting.    You’ll get clear, memorable analogies for how energy production fails (oxidative phosphorylation), why Complex I dysfunction shows up so often in Parkinson’s, and why ROS isn’t “bad” until it becomes a wildfire.  From there, they walk through mitochondrial quality control (fission, fusion, and mitophagy) plus the underrated issue of mitochondrial transport in long neurons.    Finally, we break down what’s being explored right now: mitochondria-targeted antioxidants, metabolic interventions, photobiomodulation, biogenesis strategies (PGC-1α), and emerging frontiers like mitochondrial transplantation and gene editing—with a grounded take on what’s promising vs. what’s still early. - Key Points Neurodegeneration is increasingly being viewed as an upstream mitochondrial dysfunction problem and not just a symptom-management problem.  The brain is an extreme energy consumer, so neurons are uniquely vulnerable when ATP production drops.  Oxidative phosphorylation failure reduces cellular power and sets the stage for degeneration. In Parkinson’s, Complex I impairment is a recurring theme → less ATP + more oxidative stress. ROS isn’t inherently bad — it’s signaling vs “wildfire” oxidative stress when defenses get overwhelmed.  Mitochondrial “quality control” (fission, fusion, mitophagy) is central; breakdown accelerates damage.  Neurons depend on mitochondrial transport down long axons; transport failure can starve synapses first.  Emerging interventions include mitochondria-targeted antioxidants, biogenesis/repair pathways, and mitochondria-relevant trials (including photobiomodulation) promising, but still evolving. - Key Quotes From Dr. Mike “Fission is like splitting dough into separate pizzas. Too much fission is like cutting everything into tiny crumbs.”  “Too little fission is like refusing to separate the burnt part… it ruins the whole batch.”  “This is the recycling program… Tag it, bag it, take it out.”  “PGC-1 alpha is like the head contractor for building new power plants.”  “If demand doubles, you can’t keep running on the same number of servers… you need more infrastructure.” - Article Referenced in Episode: Mitochondrial-based therapies for neurodegenerative diseases: a review of the current literature - Episode Timeline 00:00 — Cold open + show intro (“The Energy Code” mission / mitochondrial matrix)  00:45 — The “unstoppable train” problem: symptoms vs upstream causes  02:00 — Why mitochondria matter in the brain (energy hog / “city that never sleeps”)  04:00 — Quick definitions: Alzheimer’s vs Parkinson’s vs ALS  05:30 — Oxidative phosphorylation explained (dam/turbine analogy)  08:00 — Parkinson’s spotlight: Complex I disruption + downstream ROS  10:00 — ROS with nuance: signaling vs oxidative stress + antioxidant balance  12:30 — The quality-control trio: fission, fusion, mitophagy (pizza + recycling analogies)  15:30 — Mitochondrial transport in neurons (train tracks: kinesin/dynein)  17:00 — Therapy bucket #1: mitochondria-targeted antioxidants (why targeting matters)  18:30 — “Is it being tested?” clinical trial examples across AD/PD/ALS  20:30 — Photobiomodulation: keep it grounded (flashlight/battery analogy)  22:30 — Biogenesis: PGC-1α + AMPK/SIRT1 + exercise mimetics  25:00 — Frontiers: transplantation, gene therapy/CRISPR, ethics/regulation  28:30 — Five takeaways + closing call-to-action (subscribe/review/share) - Dr. Mike's #1 recommendations:     Deuterium depleted water: Litewater (code: DRMIKE) EMF-mitigating products: Somavedic (code: BIOLIGHT) Blue light blocking glasses: Ra Optics (code: BIOLIGHT) Grounding products: Earthing.com - Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Website Instagram YouTube Facebook

    Mitochondria, Light & Longevity: The Real Drivers of Aging

    In this episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike delivers a wide-ranging solo deep dive into some of the most compelling mitochondrial and longevity research published over the last several months. Moving beyond hype and “magic bullet” thinking, this episode reframes aging, energy, and resilience through the lens of systems biology — where mitochondria, immune signaling, light, stress, and the microbiome all converge.   Dr. Mike walks listeners through five recent peer-reviewed studies spanning immune rejuvenation, photobiomodulation, red light–driven lifespan extension, methylene blue–mediated neuroprotection, and microbiome-dependent longevity metabolites. Across each paper, a central theme emerges: health is not about forcing outcomes, but about restoring signaling, redox balance, and mitochondrial adaptability.   This episode highlights why fatigue is often protective, why antioxidants can backfire, how light functions as biological information, and why personalized bioenergetics — not one-size-fits-all protocols — represents the future of longevity medicine. Key Points Longevity science has shifted from speculation to mechanism-driven biology Immune aging is driven by mitochondrial dysfunction and cellular senescence Red and near-infrared light act as hormetic mitochondrial stressors Proper photobiomodulation follows a biphasic dose response Early red light exposure can extend lifespan and healthspan in model organisms Methylene blue supports mitochondrial redox balance and brain resilience Fatigue is often a protective mitochondrial signal, not an energy deficit Antioxidants can blunt beneficial mitochondrial adaptation The gut microbiome determines urolithin A and B production Longevity interventions are inherently n=1 and ecosystem-dependent Key Quotes   “Fatigue is often a protective signal — not a lack of energy.”   “Light becomes information, food becomes signaling, and molecules become tools.”   “Mitochondrial medicine isn’t the future — it’s now.”   “Longevity isn’t about magic bullets. It’s about systems biology.” Key Moments   00:00 – 05:25 Introduction, 2026 vision, and expansion of Energy Code Deep Dives   05:26 – 14:18 Urolithin A & immune rejuvenation — mitochondrial metabolism and immunosenescence   14:29 – 21:57 Photobiomodulation, biphasic dosing, and mitochondrial signaling   21:57 – 26:35 Red light exposure, AMPK activation, lifespan and healthspan extension   27:01 – 30:36 Methylene blue, neuroinflammation, blood–brain barrier protection   31:06 – 34:44 Microbiome-dependent urolithin production and personalized longevity   34:45 – 38:02 Systems biology, decentralized health, and closing reflections Books & References Mentioned Nature Aging — Urolithin A & immune decline Scientific Reports — Photobiomodulation & mitochondrial signaling Aging and Disease — Red light–driven lifespan extension Scientific Reports — Methylene blue & neuroprotection Gut microbiome enzymatic mapping of urolithin production - Dr. Mike's #1 recommendations: Water products: Water & Wellness Grounding products: Earthing.com EMF-mitigating products: Somavedic Blue light-blocking glasses: Ra Optics - Stay up-to-date on social media: Dr. Mike Belkowski: Instagram LinkedIn   BioLight: Website Instagram YouTube Facebook

    The Most Underrated Healing Tool in Animal Health w/ Jackie Jolie

    In this week’s episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski is joined by co-host Don Bailey and special guest Jackie Jolie, quantum biology practitioner and founder of AnimaSol (formerly EquiSol). Together, they explore how light — particularly red and near-infrared wavelengths — shapes mitochondrial health, recovery, longevity, and disease prevention in both humans and animals.   Jackie shares her personal health journey, including recovering from Lyme disease by radically changing her light environment, circadian rhythms, and mitochondrial signaling. What began as self-experimentation evolved into a mission: restoring animals’ health through light after witnessing skyrocketing rates of obesity, arthritis, anxiety, and chronic disease in modern pets.   The conversation dives deep into photobiomodulation, redox potential, parasympathetic nervous system activation, and why light should be viewed as a daily nutrient, not just a therapy. Jackie explains the science behind full-body red light therapy for animals, why contact-based LED devices outperform high-powered lasers, and how light restores systemic balance rather than merely treating isolated injuries.   Listeners will hear powerful real-world case studies — including paralyzed dogs walking again, rapid tendon healing in performance horses, reduced anxiety and aggression in shelter dogs, and metabolic improvements in animals suffering from obesity and insulin dysfunction.   Throughout the episode, a central theme emerges: modern disease is a mismatch between biology and environment — and restoring light exposure may be the missing foundation for healing. 🔑 Key Points Lyme disease susceptibility is strongly influenced by mitochondrial redox potential and light environment Light, water, and magnetism form the foundation of quantum biology Red and near-infrared light directly support mitochondrial function and ATP production Modern indoor lifestyles create a severe light deficiency in humans and pets Red light therapy activates the parasympathetic nervous system (“rest and digest”) Full-body illumination produces systemic healing, not just localized effects LEDs can be safer and more practical than high-powered lasers for animals Anxiety, aggression, and behavioral issues often improve with light therapy Obesity and metabolic dysfunction in pets mirror human disease trends Light should be treated as a daily supplement, not a last-resort therapy 💬 Key Quotes from Jackie Jolie   “I didn’t have a good light life — and my mitochondria couldn’t overcome the tick bite.”   “The most vital nutrient our pets are deficient in is light.”   “Red light therapy taps into the parasympathetic nervous system — animals literally melt.”   “If light created the problem, light can also be the solution.”   “Nature is the OG healer — nothing replaces the sun.” ⏱️ Key Moments 00:00 – 06:58 Jackie’s Lyme disease recovery & discovering quantum biology   06:58 – 09:26 Circadian rhythm repair, redox potential, and light as medicine   09:26 – 13:09 Why contact-based red light works through fur and skin   16:29 – 19:32 Light deficiency as a modern epidemic in pets   30:28 – 35:38 Powerful healing case studies (paralysis, anxiety, arthritis)   35:38 – 38:24 Metabolic disease, obesity, and insulin dysfunction in animals   47:02 – 49:56 The future of red light therapy for pets, performance animals & beyond Where to Learn More From & About Jackie:AnimaSol website AnimaSol IGAnimaSol Facebook - 🚨 SPECIAL OFFER! 🚨   We've introduced a bevy of new anti-aging skincare products the last couple of months, most recently the Mystic nano-mister and the Blue Mist (made to be paired together)...   For the next week, save 20% on any of the below skincare products.

    Methylene Blue Myths, Taurine Truths [#1 Episode of 2025!]

    This is the #1 episode from 2025. Enjoy! - Methylene blue has been going viral recently and not always for the right reasons.... or so their claimers make it seem. The most recent example of this is Dr. Paul Saladino's video he posted on social media he states that methylene blue actually "decreases ATP production" amongst other rationales for why people should not be consuming this mitochondrial-boosting agent. In the beginning of todays episode, I thoroughly and clearly state my thoughts on Dr. Saladino's hot take.The second topic entails a prelude about deuterium: what it is, how it impacts our mitochondrial function and some strategies to help mitigate its negative effects. We first discuss deuterium, because the research article we cover today is about taurine and its implications for helping the body produce deuterium-depleted water and/or helping the body decrease its deuterium content altogether. This not only has implications for overall health, but countless diseases and cancers as well. 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.

    Urolithin A & B: Game-Changers for Anti-Aging and Longevity [#2 Episode of 2025!]

    This is the #2 episode from 2025. Enjoy! - In this inaugural episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski officially launches the podcast’s next evolution—expanding beyond red light therapy into a broader framework of mitochondrial health, performance, and longevity.   Dr. Mike explains why The Red Light Report is rebranding and how this new chapter will embrace the Mitochondrial Matrix—a flexible, expanding framework of modalities, molecules, and lifestyle strategies designed to upgrade your cellular energy system.   At the heart of this episode is a deep dive into urolithin A and B, two emerging powerhouse compounds shown to activate mitophagy, optimize mitochondrial efficiency, support muscle strength, and even protect against neurodegeneration and osteoarthritis. You’ll learn how these metabolites—found in pomegranates but best delivered in supplement form—fit into the mitochondrial matrix, and why they may become a cornerstone for anti-aging and vitality.   Finally, Dr. Mike introduces BioLithin, BioLight’s brand-new supplement that combines high-purity urolithin A, urolithin B, and taurine from pomegranate peel for unmatched mitochondrial support.   Expect both a big-picture reframe of the podcast’s mission and practical insights into how to leverage cutting-edge science to keep your mitochondria young, strong, and resilient. Key Topics Covered: Why The Red Light Report is evolving into The Energy Code The shift from the Mitochondrial Triad to the Mitochondrial Matrix What mitophagy is and why it’s critical for health and longevity How urolithin A and B enhance mitochondrial function, strength, and resilience The latest research on urolithins for anti-aging, cancer, cognition, and anxiety Why supplement sourcing (pomegranate peel vs. juice) matters for efficacy The launch of BioLithin: the first supplement to combine urolithin A, urolithin B, and taurine Key Quotes from Dr. Mike: “Urolithin A doesn’t hype your mitochondria—it housekeeps them.” “Strength loss is one of the biggest contributors to aging. If urolithin B helps maintain muscle, that’s a game-changer.” “Instead of chasing the next biohack, we’re building the Mitochondrial Matrix—a foundation you can layer for compounding benefits.” “With the right tools, your body knows how to heal. All we’re doing is fueling the mitochondria to do their job.” Episode Timeline:   00:00:00 – Welcome to The Energy Code: why the rebrand 00:07:00 – From the Mitochondrial Triad to the Mitochondrial Matrix 00:14:00 – Mitophagy explained: the “garbage cleanup” of your cells 00:19:00 – Urolithin A: mitochondrial quality control & endurance benefits 00:27:00 – Urolithin B: anabolic potential, strength, and joint protection 00:37:00 – Emerging research: cancer, cognition, and anxiety applications 00:56:00 – BioListen unveiled: urolithin A + B + taurine supplement 01:10:00 – How to integrate BioListen into your regimen 01:13:00 – Closing thoughts: raising your cellular voltage for vitality Resources & Articles Referenced: Evaluation and Comparison of the Anti-Metastatic Effects of Urolithin A and B in Esophageal Cancer Cells (2025)​ Urolithin A Protects Against Domoic Acid-Induced Cognitive Deficits via Mitochondrial Biogenesis (2025)​ Urolithin A Abolishes High Anxiety and Restores Mitochondrial Signatures in the Brain (2025)​ Urolithin B Reduces Cartilage Degeneration and Alleviates Osteoarthritis (2024) Special Offer: ⚡️ NEW PRODUCT FROM BIOLIGHT!! ⚡️Introducing....  BioLithin!!!   Your cells are powered by mitochondria — the tiny engines that produce the energy you need to move, think, and thrive.
