What if the right kind of water during a fast could supercharge your mitochondria and accelerate healing?
Dr. Katie sits down with Dr. Petra Davelaar, a naturopathic doctor who's making waves in the world of metabolic health with her research on deuterium depleted water. If you've never heard of deuterium, you're not alone.
This heavy isotope of hydrogen exists in every glass of water you drink, and when it builds up in your cells, it can throw off your mitochondrial function and create the perfect conditions for illness to take hold.
Turns out, drinking regular water during a prolonged fast might actually be counterproductive because you're loading your system with deuterium at exactly the wrong time.

Dr. Davelaar shares data from 32 years of clinical use showing that people who cycle deuterium depleted water alongside their treatment see their life expectancy increase by three to five times compared to standard care alone.
Listen and learn how this simple shift in the water you drink could change everything about how your body heals.
