So give us the version to you of what school and just everything in general left out about mitochondria and what changes practically when we start thinking about mitochondria from a different lens.
18:38
Great question.
18:40
I'd say that Well, I'll actually say that when I started researching health independently, you know, I was following people like Paul Saladino, Max Lugavere, people who were talking about carnivore diets, and even they didn't really talk about mitochondria to the point where I didn't even realize that, you know, food gets metabolized in the mitochondria.
19:01
I thought it just got, you know, metabolized in the digestive system, whatever.
19:05
So you can't, you really can't understand health until you understand the mitochondria.
19:11
So mitochondria, they're found in every single cell of the body except for red blood cells.
19:16
We can talk about why that is.
