Chronic Disease

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a leading public health problem worldwide. It has been estimated to affect about 13.4% of the population. In the United States, about 40 million people suffer from CKD. But there are not many effective treatments for this disease. Yet, there are healthy remedies for kidney disease that are unknown to the people with CKD.

Chronic lung disease is rarely dramatic at the beginning. It does not usually announce itself with a single moment of crisis or a clear dividing line between health and illness. Instead, it creeps into life quietly, reshaping ordinary moments long before it earns a formal name. A walk becomes slower. Stairs are taken one step at a time. Conversations pause so that breath can catch up with words. Sleep becomes lighter, more fragmented. The body adjusts long before the mind accepts that something fundamental has changed. For many people, the first signs are easy to explain away.

In Mitochondria and the Future of Medicine, naturopathic doctor Lee Know tells the epic story of mitochondria - the widely misunderstood and often-overlooked powerhouses of our cells.

Since then, for life to exist beyond single-celled bacteria, it's the mitochondria that have been responsible for this life-giving energy.

Your Recovery Begins Now. You’re living in a body that no longer feels like your own. Doctors shrug. People don’t get it. Some say you’re lazy. And the life you used to live feels like a distant memory. You didn’t choose this battle, but you’re living it every day. The exhaustion, the fear, the isolation—and none of it is fair. You’ve probably been told to “just rest,” “think positively” or “push through” more times than you can count. It’s time for change.
