This episode is all about the science of algae, specifically related to mitochondrial health, aging, longevity and brain health and so much more. This was a really fun episode for me to record with Catharine Arnston, who is an expert in algae nutrition and considered a thought leader and one of the foremost experts in algae research.
She spent the last 13 years researching algae, writing papers, giving presentations, lecturing at conferences and speaking to explain the benefits of algae. And she’s a walking testament to this herself. I’ll let you hear all the nuggets directly from her in this interview, but what really stood out to me was that her biological age is less than half of her chronological age of 66 and she attributes this largely to her algae consumption. But she really goes deep on how algae can improve brain health, mitochondrial function, reduce aging and relates to many other things in the body and that it is a food, not a supplement. Really interesting episode!
