In today's podcast, you will learn about the growing epidemic of fatty liver disease and its impact on global health. You will gain insights into the causes, risk factors, and critical differences between non-alcoholic and alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Insulin regulates your body's metabolism, but excess insulin can cause health issues.

What are Mitochondria? Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy within your body. When your mitochondria don't receive the proper instruction from your body's DNA to make energy, it can damage your cells or cause them to die prematurely. Therefore, mitochondria are key players in the aging process and the development of chronic disease.
Researchers have discovered that age-related mitochondrial dysfunction—which can ultimately lead to DNA damage and cell death—may be prevented and even reversed. Sustaining early interventions that support optimal mitochondrial health and function is essential.
So, how can you prevent or reverse mitochondrial dysfunction? In today's podcast, Rob discusses your options.
