Chapter 1: What are phospholipids and why are they important for cellular health?
When we think of health, most think of diet, working out, or even stress levels. I, like so many others, overlooked the crucial importance of my mitochondria. When your mitochondria work better, everything works better. Maintaining muscle gets harder with age and cellular energy plays a significant role in strength and function. My world turned upside down when I learned about MitoPure gummies.
MitoPure gummies are longevity gummies and the only clinically proven form of urolithin A shown in human studies to help renew mitochondrial function, which is designed to support cellular energy. So you feel stronger and more vibrant as you age. They are my key component to longevity and quality of life.
Not only do they taste great, but they are sugar and allergen free, non-GMO and clean label project certified. Support yourselves and how you age with might appear gummies from timeline.
Chapter 2: How do essential fatty acids impact our health?

All right, everybody, welcome back to the Dylan Gemelli podcast. So one of the things that I say that I want to really convey today that's a blessing is the people that I get to meet by doing this.
Probably a lot of people that I wouldn't have had the chance to meet because scheduling and people are busy and they tend to. Give you more time when we can sit and converse like this. But my point being is that I like my guest today. I may not have met, but I'm so thankful that I did. We've had several good conversations.
Shit, the conversation leading into this probably would have been good to have on camera.
Chapter 3: What dietary trends are influencing our understanding of nutrition?
But overcoming some scheduling issues, which is generally normal and fighting weather. She is here today and we have topics of discussion that are going to thrill some people, probably piss some people off and everything in between. But I guarantee you this, that will be enlightening and they will be heartfelt and they will be factual.
So that being said, my guest today is the chief brand officer and co-owner of BodyBio, which I think most people have heard of. And they are one of the most well-known, well-respected, a company that I use. I'm not here to sponsor by any stretch, but I use and love and stand by. And I heard about BodyBio from some of my most well-respected people before I ever met you. Amazing.
Um, Betsy Earth, Dr. Earth was the first one that turned that you, uh, onto me and she is like my mentor. So anyway, without me going too further into it, I want to introduce my guest because she is amazing.
Chapter 4: How do seed oils affect our bodies and what alternatives are available?
We have a good friendship and we see eye to eye on a lot. So without further ado, Jess Kane.
Thank you so much for having me. What an intro.
I'm known for my intros. I get lucky. Great. I get lucky on how I do stuff. So, or blessed. But thanks for coming to see me.
Chapter 5: What role does the mind-body connection play in nutrition?
I know you had to work around a bunch of things, but I'm happy to be here. I appreciate you making the time. So. Well, okay. I said we were going to make an impact today, so let's do it. Let's do it. I do want to touch, though, briefly on body bio because there are certain things that the products do that a lot of people aren't aware of.
We get into phospholipids, and I talk a lot about cellular health. You know that. But I would like to just talk a little bit about the company history, your dad starting the company and how you've taken over and just your big basis behind what you do.
Chapter 6: How can we navigate dietary choices for healthy aging?
Sure. It's a very mission-driven company. It always has been. My grandfather actually started it. So it's a third-generation family business, still in the family, obviously. My husband and I now run it together today. And it was started in the 1990s to help children who were experiencing terrible, rare orphan diseases.
And they were training these doctors on how to stabilize these children who were experiencing these kind of brain on fire issues. And through that, they pieced together through all this research that there is a specific protocol and specific products that you could use that were actually IV drugs.
So initially, this came from doing blood testing, which we still do today, to the IV drug protocol and then to developing the products in the early 2000s.
Chapter 7: What are the best sources of essential nutrients for a balanced diet?
And it's this this protocol that works synergistically together to stabilize your cell membranes and to repair and make your cell membranes more resilient, essentially. So it really started in relation. My grandfather actually developed products mainly because he was experiencing chronic fatigue in the 1980s. He owned a steel factory. He had heavy metal toxicity. Right.
And he was this OG biohacker who went to the other side of the country to figure out where am I going to find these kind of these people doing things more holistically. And at the time, it was kind of the Pacific Northwest in Northern California. And it was a super small community of people who were in the functional medicine scene in the 1990s, 1980s.
And it's expanded and it's grown into such an incredible behemoth that we see today.
Chapter 8: What is the future vision for BodyBio and its products?
I still like I'm not I'm not used to going in places. I was in a coffee shop earlier today and this woman looked at me and said, I recognize you. Where do I know you from? She was, oh, my God, body bio. And my brother's at Sundance this weekend and he's going so many people kept coming up to me talking to me about body bio. It's just it's weird to me because it was always such a niche.
We only sold to functional doctors. Yeah. And I'm so grateful that people are receiving what we are putting out there, that they are learning from us, that they're getting healthier, and that we're going deeper than just like a surface level kind of your typical vitamins and minerals.
Yeah, but you guys' products are different. It's not the same stuff that you get everywhere. I mean, there's a few things that you may find elsewhere, but what you do and what they do functionally is quite different. It is. It's quite important.
Yeah.
my goal would be with some of this as we educate people on phospholipids the importance of cellular membranes because we always talk about mitochondria which of course we do yeah but nobody talks about cellular membrane and guess what has a membrane mitochondria exactly and we're what we're not realizing is that living in today's world is completely disrupting our membranes
That is what is literally falling apart just in the way leaky gut does. You have leaky cells. You have leaky mitochondrial membranes. And so all of this bad stuff is getting in. And when we make our cells more resilient by reinforcing the cell, the mitochondria, the organelle membranes, you have a better terrain and a better resilience overall.
The two most important structural fats for our brain are essential fatty acids and phospholipids. And those are two of the things that my grandfather just understood from the 1990s and started manufacturing early on.
We say that stuff, you and I know what it is, but a lot of people don't. And they want to know when we say that, what are phospholipids? Let's start there. Sure. And then we'll talk about like how they work and why they're so important.
Yeah, it's a structural fat. It's a fat and oil that we make endogenously in the body. We synthesize phospholipids from our diet. And so we when we eat a food, particularly meats, seeds, eggs, egg yolks are like the best form of phospholipids, oily fish. We make phospholipids from these foods. The problem is, is that was fine, you know, 50, 100 years ago.
