Taking charcoal and chlorella supplements can help eliminate heavy metals and improve the health of mitochondria.
1:11:29 - 1:12:45 (01:15)
Summary
Taking charcoal and chlorella supplements can help eliminate heavy metals and improve the health of mitochondria. Heavy metals are bad for mitochondria as they kill them leading to lack of energy, and fructose is also not good for mitochondrial health. Fruit, although high in fructose, ripens only once a year in the jungle, and all great apes only gain weight during fruit season.

Summary
Winter is a time of less food and humans are designed to seek out fruit sugar to gain weight. This explains why two-thirds of the sensors on the tongue are sweet receptors and why sugary foods are so appealing to us.
