Mitophagy: The Missing Link Behind Aging, Chronic Disease, And Mitochondrial Health With Dr. Anurag Singh

The average person now spends the last 16 years of life battling at least one chronic disease. That's not healthspan, that's survival.

In this powerful episode of the Uncover Your Eyes podcast, Dr. Meenal Agarwal sits down with Dr. Anurag Singh, Chief Medical Officer of Timeline and a leading expert in mitochondrial health, mitophagy, and longevity science, recorded live at the Eudēmonia Summit.

Dr. Singh explains why mounting scientific evidence points to mitochondrial dysfunction, specifically impaired mitophagy, as a central driver of aging and chronic disease. Mitophagy is the critical cellular process of clearing out damaged mitochondria so healthier ones can function efficiently. When this process slows, cellular "trash" accumulates, energy production declines, and disease risk rises.

In this episode, we explore how supporting the mitophagy phase of mitochondrial health may influence inflammation, neurodegeneration, metabolic disease, and overall resilience as we age.

🎯 You'll uncover:

✅ How the mitochondrial lifecycle works and the three key phases that matter for health

✅ Why mitophagy declines with age and what that means for energy, pain, and inflammation ✅ How impaired mitophagy is linked to Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other diseases of aging ✅ The role and sources of Urolithin A and who may benefit from it ✅ Why menopause can accelerate mitochondrial decline ✅ How athletes stress, and support, their mitochondria differently ✅ The #1 evidence-backed biohack to support mitochondrial health

This episode bridges longevity science, preventive medicine, and patient advocacy, offering a clearer understanding of why symptoms matter and what your cells may be trying to tell you.

Whether you're a healthcare provider, wellness or nutrition professional, athlete, patient, parent, or simply curious about the future of medicine, this conversation will change how you think about aging, disease, and healing.

At Uncover Your Eyes, Dr. Meenal Agarwal explores the hidden biological systems shaping how we feel, move, think, and heal, empowering listeners with science, clarity, and self-advocacy.
