The Biology of Energy: Mitochondria, Peptides, and Cellular Resilience with Dr Lara May
About this episode
Dr. Lara May discusses mitochondrial health and its impact on cellular energy and overall wellness.
What if fatigue, brain fog, slow recovery, and burnout aren't simply a lack of motivation—but a reflection of what's happening deep within your cells? In this Wellness Illuminated episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May explores the fascinating world of mitochondrial health, cellular energy production, and the role peptides can play in supporting resilience, healing, and healthy aging. You'll learn how the body creates ATP—the cellular energy currency that powers every process in the body—and why mitochondrial function is essential for everything from brain health and detoxification to recovery and repair. Dr. Lara also breaks down the relationship between NAD+, methylene blue, mitochondrial signaling, and why more isn't always better when it comes to supporting energy pathways. This episode offers a practical, science-informed look at how cellular energy impacts overall health and what it means to support your body intelligently rather than simply chasing more energy. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026.
