“You have to make sure your cells are happy with all the nutrients so that nothing goes off kilter.”
— Dr. Carolyn Dean
Episode Overview
What do immune health, migraines, heart rhythm, brain energy, and healthy aging have in common? In this episode, Dr. Carolyn Dean explores the nutritional foundations that connect these seemingly different areas of health. She begins with Epstein Barr virus and chronic fatigue, then discusses yeast overgrowth, immune function, magnesium, potassium, B vitamins, and other nutrients that support normal cellular function.
Next, Dr. Dean turns to vitamin C, cellular aging, and findings from the Maui ReSet Study. She also examines new research on migraine prevention, perimenopause and ADHD symptoms, atrial fibrillation, chemical exposure, NAD, and Alzheimer’s disease. Throughout the show, she returns to one central idea: instead of chasing isolated health trends, support the body’s cells with the nutrients they need to produce energy and function properly.
