• Why Mitochondrial Supplements Don't Work — Until You Do This First

  5If you've ever wondered why your CoQ10, NAD, or PQQ stack isn't giving you more energy — this episode will change the way you think about fatigue forever. Your mitochondria aren't just little powerhouses. They're safety sensors — constantly asking one question: "Am I safe enough to make energy right now?" In this solo deep-dive, Coach Debbie Potts unpacks the cutting-edge science of the Cell Danger Response (CDR) — based on Dr. Robert Naviaux's research — and why forcing energy production before your cells feel safe can actually make things worse. You'll learn: 🔬 Why your mitochondria slow energy output on purpose — and how that's a protective response, not a failure. ⚙️ Why supplements like CoQ10, NAD, or PQQ often backfire when used too early. 💡 The six "safety signals" from Ari Whitten's Energy Blueprint that naturally restart energy production. 🧠 How chronic stress, the vagus nerve, and hormones all tie into the same mitochondrial story. 🧘 The three-phase strategy Debbie uses to rebuild energy — from drainage and nervous system repair to targeted mitochondrial support. 📊 How to measure true recovery with PNOĒ Metabolic Testing, HRV, and functional labs. This episode bridges the gap between stress physiology, cellular metabolism, and real-world recovery — showing you why you must calm the system before you can fuel it. If you're tired of chasing energy with supplements that don't work, this is your roadmap back to cellular safety, optimal metabolism, and your Future You. 💻 Learn more or schedule your own PNOĒ Metabolic Test and Future You Reset at www.DebbiePotts.net 📲 Follow @coachdebbiepotts on Instagram for daily WHOLESTIC Method™ tips 🩵 Educational only.

• The Bile–Choline-Drainage Connection: Restoring Flow in the Right Order

  What if your histamine reactions, skin rashes, and perfume sensitivities aren't allergies at all — but signs of bile backup? In this deep-dive episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, Debbie unpacks the powerful yet overlooked connection between choline, bile flow, and histamine balance — and how restoring this triad can transform your energy, digestion, and hormone harmony. 💡 The One-Line Bottom Line: Low choline → low phosphatidylcholine → sticky bile → toxin & estrogen congestion → fatigue, PMS, and chemical sensitivity. Restore choline → restore bile → restore flow → restore YOU. 🧬 What You'll Learn: How your liver turns cholesterol into bile acids — your body's natural "soap." Why phosphatidylcholine (PC) from choline keeps bile fluid and prevents fatty liver. How bile stagnation leads to detox traffic jams, histamine overload, and hormone recirculation. The key roles of taurine, glycine, folate, and B12 in bile and methylation support. Why sluggish bile = dysbiosis + histamine-producing microbes + inflammation. Step-by-step strategy to restore drainage, open detox pathways, and calm sensitivities. 🔁 Fast "Symptom-to-Step" Cheatsheet: Greasy stools or nausea after fat → support PC + bile flow PMS or breast tenderness → bile + methylation nutrients Brain fog after meals → vagus priming + PC Elevated liver enzymes → PC + TUDCA + taurine/glycine Perfume or wine sensitivity → bile stagnation + microbiome hygiene ✨ Key Analogy: If your body's plumbing is clogged, spraying air freshener won't fix it. You don't fix chemical sensitivity by masking the smell — you fix it by unclogging the drain. 🧭 The Takeaway: Chemical sensitivity and histamine intolerance aren't random. They're your body's way of saying: "Drain me before you detox me." 🎙️ Tune in to learn how to: ✔️ Support bile flow naturally ✔️ Calm histamine reactions ✔️ Rebuild your microbiome ✔️ And reclaim your energy, mood, and metabolism 🌐 Learn more at: www.debbiepotts.net #FutureYou #LiverHealth #BileFlow #MetabolicHealth #FunctionalMedicine #Detox #HistamineIntolerance #CoachDebbiePotts ⚠️ Disclaimer: Educational only.

• #618 The Glycocalyx Connection: Healing Leaky Gut, Leaky Brain & Cognitive Decline with Martha Carlin

  The Glycocalyx Connection: Healing Leaky Gut, Leaky Brain & Cognitive Decline with Martha Carlin What if the secret to your gut, brain, and vascular health lies in a microscopic sugar-protein layer called the glycocalyx? In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I sit down with Martha Carlin, founder of BiotiQuest and The BioCollective, to explore how the glycocalyx, the gut microbiome, and the blood–brain barrier work together to protect our energy, metabolism, and cognitive health — and what happens when they break down. Martha shares her inspiring story of turning her husband's Parkinson's diagnosis into a scientific mission, leading to the creation of Sugar Shift — a probiotic culture designed to rebalance sugar metabolism in the gut. We unpack the science of how this unique formulation helps convert glucose into beneficial metabolites like mannitol, supporting both metabolic and neurological resilience. Together, we discuss: 🧠 What the glycocalyx is — and why it's essential for vascular, gut, and brain health 💥 How inflammation, oxidative stress, and high blood sugar erode your cellular barriers 🦠 The role of gut dysbiosis and endotoxins (LPS) in triggering leaky gut and leaky brain ❤️ How endothelial damage drives fatigue, brain fog, and cognitive decline 🥦 Root Cause solutions to rebuild and protect your glycocalyx, gut lining, and blood–brain barrier 🌿 Nutritional therapy and lifestyle strategies to lower inflammation and boost nitric oxide 🧫 How BiotiQuest Sugar Shift helps redirect sugar metabolism and improve mitochondrial health If you've ever wondered how your gut health connects to your brain clarity, focus, and longevity — this episode will connect the dots between your microbiome, metabolism, and mind. 🎧 Listen & Learn: The science of the glycocalyx and why it's your body's "Teflon coating" How "leaky gut" and "leaky brain" are two sides of the same barrier problem Why protecting your endothelial and gut barriers is key to preventing neurodegeneration The power of targeted probiotics like BiotiQuest Sugar Shift for metabolic repair 🧬 Connect with Martha Carlin & BiotiQuest: 👉 https://www.biotiquest.com Use code COACHDEBBIEPOTTS for savings on Sugar Shift and other microbiome solutions. 🌿 Connect with Coach Debbie Potts: Website: www.debbiepotts.net YouTube: @coachdebbiepotts Instagram: @coachdebbiepotts Podcast: The Coach Debbie Potts Show – available on Apple, Spotify & all major platforms

• The Missing Link: How Choline and Bile Unlock Fat Metabolism, Detox, and Hormone Balance

   Detox isn't a juice cleanse — it's a biochemical process your liver runs 24/7. In this deep-dive episode, Coach Debbie Potts unpacks how choline, bile, and cholesterol form the ultimate metabolic trio that determines your fat-burning, hormone balance, and brain health. Learn how sluggish bile flow, low choline intake, or poor drainage can stall detoxification, drive estrogen dominance, and create that "toxic fatigue" so many midlife women experience. You'll discover: 💥 The 3 Phases of Liver Detox — and what nutrients each requires 🥚 Why choline is the missing link in detox, methylation, and brain health 💧 How bile flow impacts hormones, digestion, and fat metabolism 🩸 Why "high cholesterol" isn't the enemy — but a signal to look deeper ⚗️ The truth about TMAO and why you shouldn't fear eggs or choline 🌿 How to restore metabolic flow with real food, movement, and targeted nutrients When you optimize choline and bile, you ignite your mitochondria, clear toxins efficiently, and unlock your body's natural rhythm of repair. ✨ Learn how to test, not guess, using PNOĒ Metabolic Testing and your FutureYou Functional Review at www.DebbiePotts.net #FutureYou #WHOLESTICMethod #CoachDebbiePotts #LiverDetox #BileFlow #Choline #HormoneBalance #FunctionalHealth #MetabolicTesting #PNOE #Mitochondria #FatMetabolism #Longevity

• The North-to-South Root Cause Map: How Inflammation Really Starts

  Setting the Stage — The North-to-South Root Cause Map: How Inflammation Really Starts "Inflammation isn't random — it's routed." In this first Root Cause Deep Dive episode, Coach Debbie Potts reveals how inflammation follows a predictable north-to-south pathway—from your brain all the way down to your gut barrier. If you've ever felt bloated, foggy, or fatigued and been told it's "just inflammation," this episode explains why—and where it truly begins. You'll learn how stress, low stomach acid, sluggish bile, and a weak gut lining quietly sabotage your metabolism and immunity… and how to fix it step by step. Coach Debbie walks you through how your vagus nerve, stomach acid, bile, enzymes, and glycocalyx work together to keep digestion smooth, detox flowing, and inflammation calm. 🧠 In This Episode, You'll Learn: How the vagus nerve sets the "traffic light" for digestion. Why low stomach acid and enzyme output fuel dysbiosis and fatigue. The hidden role of bile as an antimicrobial, hormone balancer, and gut anti-inflammatory. How the glycocalyx acts as your gut's velvet rope—deciding what gets in and what stays out. How to use real-world "clues" like bloating, stool changes, or post-meal fatigue to find where your system is breaking down. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome + The Root Cause Map Explained 03:15 – How Stress Turns Off Digestion 06:30 – Stomach Acid: Your First Firewall 10:10 – Bile Flow & Detox Connection 14:20 – Enzymes, Fermentation & Endotoxins 18:00 – The Glycocalyx: Your Forgotten Shield 22:40 – Simple Self-Audit: Where's Your Breakdown? 25:30 – Key Takeaway & The Future You Framework 💬 Key Analogy "Your digestion is like a highway running north to south. The brain is the traffic light, the stomach is the toll gate, bile is the car wash, and the glycocalyx is the velvet carpet at the end. When one signal fails, traffic backs up—and that's what drives inflammation." 🧩 Takeaway Inflammation doesn't happen to you — it happens through you. By restoring the flow from brain to bile to barrier, you can quiet inflammation at its source and build a stronger, sharper, more resilient Future You. 🔗 Learn More Visit www.debbiepotts.net for more Root Cause Deep Dive episodes, blogs, and upcoming FutureYou Health Optimizer Events.
