Mojo Monday - Letting Go of How Life 'Should Be' with Carly Taylor

In this second part of the mind-blowing conversation on The Paul Taylor Podcast, we explore the fascinating world of cellular health with Dr. Christabelle Yeoh who challenges our understanding of light, cold exposure, and mitochondrial function. Through a blend of cutting-edge science and practical applications, we uncover why sunlight impacts far more than just vitamin D levels, how red-light therapy directly activates your cellular powerhouses, and why your mother's genes might influence your mental health more than previously thought. From the science of cold exposure progression to the truth about trendy NAD+ supplements, this episode breaks down complex biochemistry into actionable steps for optimising your health. Using real-world examples and clinical experience, we tackle common misconceptions about sunlight exposure in Australia and reveal why mastering the basics might be more powerful than advanced biohacking techniques.

Key Topics:


Red Light Therapy & Mitochondria: Exploring how red and near-infrared light directly impacts mitochondrial function through Complex IV and cytochrome c oxidase


Sunlight & Health Beyond Vitamin D: Australia's sun exposure paradox and the broader impacts of sunlight on hormones, mood, and metabolic health


Mitochondrial Psychobiology: Examining the connection between mitochondrial function and psychological health, including maternal inheritance patterns


Nutritional Support for Mitochondria: Detailed analysis of how specific nutrients, including B vitamins, NAD+, and methylation support mitochondrial complexes


Supplementation Strategies: Critical evaluation of supplements including methylated B vitamins, NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide), and NR (Nicotinamide Riboside)


Hormetic Stressors: Overview of beneficial stressors including fasting, cold exposure, and exercise for optimising mitochondrial health


Cold Therapy Progression: Practical guidance on introducing cold exposure, from face plunges to cold showers, with emphasis on appropriate progression for different health conditions

Key Takeaways:


Prioritise regular sunlight exposure as it directly activates mitochondria and influences hormones, mood, and metabolism beyond just vitamin D production.


Begin cold exposure therapy with gentle face plunges or brief cold showers rather than jumping straight into ice baths, especially if dealing with chronic conditions.


Incorporate regular fasting into your routine as a fundamental tool for optimising mitochondrial function and metabolic flexibility.


Consider personalised B vitamin supplementation based on your individual genetic makeup and health requirements.


Support your mitochondrial complexes through targeted nutrition, NAD support for Complex 1, and red light therapy for Complex 4


Master the fundamental health practices before advancing to more complex biohacking interventions.


Include strategic exercise in your routine as it's a cornerstone of mitochondrial health and function.

Journey deep into your cellular powerhouses - the mitochondria - in this eye-opening episode of The Paul Taylor Podcast. I sit down with Dr. Christabelle Yeoh, an Integrative Medicine Physician, with over 20 years of experience in clinical care, as she reveals how these ancient cellular components govern everything from brain health to athletic performance, and why they might be the key to understanding conditions like depression, diabetes, and dementia. Discover the fascinating evolutionary link between fructose and energy regulation, explore cutting-edge insights about oxygen therapy, and learn practical strategies to optimise your cellular health. Whether you're battling chronic health issues or simply want to understand the hidden mechanisms controlling your wellbeing, this conversation offers revolutionary insights that bridge complex biology with actionable solutions. Join us as we challenge conventional medical wisdom and uncover a fresh perspective on health and healing.

Key Topics:


Integrative Medicine Journey: From conventional to integrative medicine, including pursuing advanced nutrition education after medical residency


Metabolic Health & Disease Risk: Deep dive into metabolic syndrome's connection to major health conditions including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and dementia


Mitochondrial Function & Evolution: Understanding mitochondria's vital role in cellular health, energy production, and their ancient evolutionary origins


Brain Energy & Mental Health: Exploring the brain's energy demands and how mitochondrial dysfunction impacts neurological and mental health conditions


Fructose & Metabolic Crisis: Analysing Professor Richard Johnson's research on fructose consumption, genetic adaptations, and mitochondrial energy production


Mitohormesis & Adaptive Stress: Understanding hormetic stressors and their beneficial effects on mitochondrial function and overall health


Oxygen Therapy & Performance: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and intermittent hypoxia for chronic disease management and performance optimisation

Key Takeaways:


Look beyond blood glucose readings alone, as metabolic dysfunction can exist even with normal blood sugar levels. Request comprehensive metabolic testing as normal blood sugar levels don't guarantee metabolic health.


Reduce processed fructose intake to protect mitochondrial function and maintain healthy energy production.


Support your brain's high energy demands by prioritising mitochondrial health through lifestyle and nutrition choices.


Start gradually introducing beneficial stressors like controlled exercise, fasting, or temperature variation to strengthen your mitochondria.


Match your oxygen therapy to your health status: choose HBOT for chronic conditions or intermittent hypoxia for performance enhancement.


Take preventive action against metabolic syndrome before symptoms appear to reduce risk of serious health conditions.


Identify and eliminate lifestyle habits that force your body into chronic anaerobic metabolism.
