Nutrition Expert: The One Food Missing From 99% of Diets

The Beyond Tomorrow Podcast with Julian Issa

Show Notes

What if the most powerful superfood on Earth has been overlooked all this time?

Nutrition is getting more complicated. People rely on stacks of supplements, yet still feel low energy and out of balance. At the same time, toxins in our environment are increasing, affecting how our bodies function at a deeper level.

Microalgae offers a different approach. It is one of the oldest life forms on Earth and one of the most nutrient-dense. But despite decades of research, it remains largely unknown outside of Asia.

In this episode, Dr. Catharine Arnston explains why spirulina and chlorella are gaining attention. She breaks down how they support energy, detoxification, and cellular health. She also explains why they may replace multiple supplements in a single, whole-food source.

Dr. Catharine Arnston is the founder of EnergyBITS. She is a health expert and algae advocate with over 17 years of research. Her mission is to bring microalgae into mainstream nutrition and simplify how people approach wellness.
