📺 Watch the Video on Spotify, YouTube & RumbleJoin our FREE CommunityWe talk a lot about mitochondria on this show, but usually in the context of our own aging. This week we go back to the beginning.Dr. Josh Madsen runs three pediatric clinics treating some of the toughest cases in the country: nonverbal autism, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, genetic disorders. After thousands of case histories, he's found the same underlying pattern again and again. It isn't a behavior problem. It's an energy problem.We talk about primitive reflexes, the automatic movements that should disappear in the first year of life, and what it means when they linger. We talk about the moro reflex and why it shows up in anxious, easily triggered kids. We talk about his own family's health crisis from a moldy house, and the shockingly high chlorine levels he found in his new home's tap water.Josh built an acronym, TIMED, for the five things most likely to disrupt a child's mitochondria: toxins, infections, mitochondrial disruptors, emotional stress, and diet. Once you hear it, you won't unsee it in your own kid, or honestly, in yourself.If you're a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, or anyone who spends time around kids, this episode gives you a completely different lens for the next meltdown you witness. And a much kinder one.Timestamps00:00 Why Mitochondria Come First00:43 Meet Dr. Josh Madsen03:20 Dr. Madsen’s Background and Clinics05:11 What Is Functional Neurology?06:53 Understanding Neurodevelopmental Delays08:31 How Motor Skills Support Cognition10:02 The Cerebellum and Coordination12:14 The Developmental Pyramid13:44 The TIMED Framework for Autism Triggers18:17 Auditing Your Home Environment21:05 Behavior vs Biology22:36 Mold, PANS, and Parenting Lessons28:17 Severe Cases and Shared Mechanisms29:57 Mitochondria and Recovery31:55 Why “Wait and See” Can Fail34:27 Early Intervention Basics36:51 Primitive Reflexes Explained39:00 Movement History and Developmental Patterns40:36 How Environment Shapes Development44:05 What Parents Should Watch For49:07 Helping Older Kids Catch Up51:42 Reducing Environmental Stressors55:55 Where to Find Dr. Josh Madsen57:14 Final Thanks and SubscribeConnect with GUESTWebsite: www.iowainfinity.com Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/infinityneuromotor/https://www.instagram.com/dr.joshmadsen/There's more to QBC: Donate to launch JAQB: https://givebutter.com/AQBjournallaunchYou can join the FREE QBC online community here: https://qbcpod.com/freecommunityThe Institute of Applied Quantum Biology, a non profit organization translating the new science into practical application: https://www.iaqb.foundation/certificationPodcast website: https://qbcpod.com/Tools we use: https://qbcpod.com/products/From our sponsor: For red light therapy devices, blue blocking glasses, circadian friendly nightlights & more, visit boncharge.com and enter QBC in the discount box at checkout.MyCircadianAppDownload to your device from the App Store, use code QBCPOD.
