Increase Your Mitochondria, Your Body Will Thank You | The Acid Drop

As it turns out, mitochondria are essential for cellular function, and virtually every cell in the human body. We just learned about some exciting research whereby a dietary intervention can in fact dramatically increase the number of mitochondria in immune cells. That is certainly a plus. There’s some great information here.

    A low sodium diet is only for people that are mainly sedentary. For those of us who exercise and stay active, a higher sodium (sea salt) diet is much more preferred.

    You are a true life saver Dr. Pearlmutter. I am always blown away by your depth of knowledge and how simply you explain it to us. May you be blessed in all things good.
  • My takeaway is; 1. We have evolved to fatten up in the fall and hibernate through the winter. 2. The deeper we dig into things, the more questions we come up with.
  • Excellent and interesting presentation! Thanks for the many ways you help all of us learn. You're a great teacher. 🙏
  • Great presentation, Dr.Perlmutter! Please present more factors/studies how to improve mitochondrial function- would be highly appreciated.
  • Thank you very much doctor.🙏 This is the clearest and most useful clip on "polyol pathway" mechanism. Such understanding provides for important direction for elimination diets. It was my good health fortune to have listened in.

    Wow! I heard that salt could cause oxidative stress but didn't understand why and it gives the answer, thanks for it.

    Thank you Doctor Perlmutter. Excellent presentation.
  • This study is incredibly interesting re fructose but I can’t see it tells us anything about sodium. The comparison was low sodium vs low sodium with high fructose. Unless you also compare with medium and/or high sodium combined with low or high fructose only the data on fructose is meaningful.

    Please continue with U tubes. I'm a naturopathic person with HSV and I research mitochondrial support and thymus regeneration. I will watch mito u tubes more than once as I am getting very familiar with specific medical terms. Appreciate you Bonnie
  • @X-zk9vm
    Most nutrition for mitochondria is NIR .near infrared from sunlight especially morning and evening when the uv index is low ,below 3

    I am retired, and I don't buy very many new books now-a-days !, But I bought 'Drop Acid" yesterday ! (It cost $ 31.76 ) Thanks for your sincere efforts to help us all !

    To several who noted, yes there have been follow-ups showing NaCl is the bigger player in this. Just remember if you cut out or cut way back on Iodized Salt, you must supplement with Iodine....
  • Lower Fructose, Lower Sodium + Fasting for Autophagy/Mitophagy. Result = Lower Free Radicals, lower Oxidative Stress, lower Uric Acid. Thanks Dr PerlMutter, you advice is powerful as usual.

    💖 Thank you for a very helpful and informative video..your delivery of info is really great...
  • @johnross3295
    Thank you Doctor! Liked and Subscribed. Just started reading your Grain Brain book... fascinating! Keep up the great work!
  • Many thanks for the information. From another video I was told that the intake of sodium (preferably in the form of sea salt or Himalayan salt, as these are rich in many other minerals) should be counterbalanced by the right amount of potassium (leafy salad, avocados, bananas etc.) and that half a teaspoon per day, especially when transpiration is increased, is a good thing to add.
  • High salt and fructose intake are a marker for a diet high in processed food. However seems to me that fructose is the driver not the salt. See Richard Johnsons' research on fructose.
