<p dir="ltr">Did you know, there's a superfood that's been around for billions of years that could transform your health? In this episode of The Longevity Podcast, I am joined by Catharine Arnston, creator of ENERGYbits, to discuss this superfood and its benefits for longevity. </p> <p dir="ltr">We discuss algae, specifically spirulina and chlorella, as a nutrient-dense food source, how it can fit into many diets, and the fact that it is highly bioavailable and quickly absorbed by the body, providing nourishment and balancing blood sugar levels. We also dive into algae’s benefits for brain health, detoxification, gut microbiome, and the immune system. Overall, we discuss algae's ability to enhance the function of mitochondria, and the importance of choosing high-quality algae products. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Catharine Arnston started ENERGYbits® after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal. It took Catharine ten years to bring algae into the mainstream and build ENERGYbits® into a national company. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Shop <a href="https://energybits.com/discount/NAT?rfsn=8006371.bd3d6a">ENERGYbits with this link</a> or use code NAT for 20% off</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Thank you to our sponsors for making this episode possible:</strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Kion: Visit <a href="http://www.getkion.com/longevity" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="http://www.getkion.com/longevity" data-sk="tooltip_parent">www.getkion.com/longevity</a> for 20% off.</strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>ARMRA: Go to <a href="http://tryarmra.com/NAT" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="http://tryarmra.com/NAT" data-sk="tooltip_parent">tryarmra.com/NAT</a> or enter NAT to get 15% off your first order.</strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>BEAM Minerals: Go to <a href="https://www.beamminerals.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://www.beamminerals.com" data-sk="tooltip_parent">https://www.beamminerals.com</a> code NAT20 to get 20% off your order.</strong></p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Find more from Catharine Arnston: </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Website: <a href="https://energybits.com/">https://energybits.com/</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/energybits/">@energybits </a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://visuals.energybits.com/articles/why-the-world-needs-algae.pdf"> Why the World Needs Algae </a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://visuals.energybits.com/media/catharine-arnston-speaker-intro-deck-for-podcast-hosts-and-summits.pdf"> Algae Love Story  </a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://visuals.energybits.com/articles/algae-for-mitochondrial-health-scientific-references.pdf"> Protect Mitochondria Health with Algae SOD</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWhwJaeLTFg">Customer Video Testimonial Video</a></p> <p><strong><br> Learn more about Algae:<br> <br></strong><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__visuals.energybits.com_articles_why-2Dalgae-2Dis-2Da-2Dfood-2Dnot-2Da-2Dsupplement.pdf&d=DwMF-g&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=CkaHKqWxfahvArOXW-QQIQ7HLzjaNXHmRcNdBnqA6NODbu0sa9doWyLFnPLzgVbj&m=2Iifymkx8kf6j8zIHdR3rwXGT5V3T46jeH7abIqOQe2rthYx70CL3hxMtrxAIAYC&s=bN7EKoI_68sKvvkIGHBLRgrqwkCatBngZoRzPDjckJs&e=" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u%3Dhttps-3A__visuals.energybits.com_articles_why-2Dalgae-2Dis-2Da-2Dfood-2Dnot-2Da-2Dsupplement.pdf%26d%3DDwMF-g%26c%3DeuGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM%26r%3DCkaHKqWxfahvArOXW-QQIQ7HLzjaNXHmRcNdBnqA6NODbu0sa9doWyLFnPLzgVbj%26m%3D2Iifymkx8kf6j8zIHdR3rwXGT5V3T46jeH7abIqOQe2rthYx70CL3hxMtrxAIAYC%26s%3DbN7EKoI_68sKvvkIGHBLRgrqwkCatBngZoRzPDjckJs%26e%3D&source=gmail&ust=1722434374012000&usg=AOvVaw2lNEQ8IOBSEkUPnf_i05Eu">Why algae is a FOOD not a supplement</a><br> <br> <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__visuals.energybits.com_media_pdf_why-2Dthe-2Dworld-2Dneeds-2Dalgae.pdf&d=DwMF-g&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=CkaHKqWxfahvArOXW-QQIQ7HLzjaNXHmRcNdBnqA6NODbu0sa9doWyLFnPLzgVbj&m=2Iifymkx8kf6j8zIHdR3rwXGT5V3T46jeH7abIqOQe2rthYx70CL3hxMtrxAIAYC&s=ekGBOV1aoeeXZiXA6pF0QM9M-J0gI7f2Wuv_8Q5Wo-s&e=" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u%3Dhttps-3A__visuals.energybits.com_media_pdf_why-2Dthe-2Dworld-2Dneeds-2Dalgae.pdf%26d%3DDwMF-g%26c%3DeuGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM%26r%3DCkaHKqWxfahvArOXW-QQIQ7HLzjaNXHmRcNdBnqA6NODbu0sa9doWyLFnPLzgVbj%26m%3D2Iifymkx8kf6j8zIHdR3rwXGT5V3T46jeH7abIqOQe2rthYx70CL3hxMtrxAIAYC%26s%3DekGBOV1aoeeXZiXA6pF0QM9M-J0gI7f2
