How Deuterium Depleted Water Helped Cancer Patients Live 3–5x Longer with Dr. Petra Davelaar, Naturopathic Doctor | EP 119
Description
What if the right kind of water during a fast could supercharge your mitochondria and accelerate healing?
Dr. Katie sits down with Dr. Petra Davelaar, a naturopathic doctor who's making waves in the world of metabolic health with her research on deuterium depleted water. If you've never heard of deuterium, you're not alone.
This heavy isotope of hydrogen exists in every glass of water you drink, and when it builds up in your cells, it can throw off your mitochondrial function and create the perfect conditions for illness to take hold.
Turns out, drinking regular water during a prolonged fast might actually be counterproductive because you're loading your system with deuterium at exactly the wrong time. Dr. Davelaar breaks down the science in a way that finally makes sense, explaining why this tiny subatomic difference matters more than most people realize.

Dr. Davelaar shares data from 32 years of clinical use showing that people who cycle deuterium depleted water alongside their treatment see their life expectancy increase by three to five times compared to standard care alone.
Dr. Davelaar connects the dots between deuterium, sunlight exposure, and ketogenic eating.
She explains why your morning sunlight matters for burning fat, why sunglasses might be working against you, and how eating local, seasonal foods naturally keeps your deuterium levels in check.
Plus, she walks you through testing your own levels, how to use deuterium depleted water safely, and why this might be one of the most cost-effective interventions you've been overlooking.
