DS Haven In Light Of Things
What if insulin resistance isn’t just a disease, but your cells trying to protect themselves from an energy overload? This clip explores the idea that when cells can no longer efficiently process incoming fuel, they may begin rejecting glucose as a protective adaptation. It also explains why using stored energy through fasting or exercise may help restore the cell’s ability to handle glucose more effectively.

What If Parkinson’s Is Also An Energy Metabolism Problem?
Parkinson’s is often framed around dopamine, but this clip looks deeper at what may be happening inside the cell. Oxidative stress, inflammation, chronic infection, and environmental toxins can interfere with key thiamine-dependent enzymes involved in energy production, including pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. That raises a bigger question about whether impaired B1-dependent metabolism is part of the disease process itself.
