| SSRI Withdrawal Is Mitochondrial Dysfunction | 23 Nov 2025 | 01:29:04 | |
Chris Masterjohn, PhD, Founder and Scientific Director of mito.me, explains why SSRI withdrawal is mitochondrial dysfunction and what to do about it. This is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. 29 million Americans and about 5-10% of the world's population are on SSRIs, which have become the first-line treatment of depression. These can cause sexual dysfunction and emotional blunting in up to half of people, an unclear incidence of sleep disruption, and a rare risk of suicidality, self-harm, and new-onset psychosis. On the other hand, 20-50% of people who go off experience SSRI discontinuation syndrome. This can involve irritability, anxiety, mood problems, crying, dread, suicidal ideation, insomnia, nightmares, excessive dreaming, lethargy, fatigue, headache, tremor, sweating, anorexia, flu-like symptoms, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pain, numbness, tingling, feeling like something is crawling on the skin, electric shocks running through the brain or body, rushing noises, visual traces (seeing something persist when it is no longer there, or seeing moving objects leaving illusory streaks of light behind them, etc), dizziness, light-headedness, "brain zaps," vertigo, confusion, difficulty concentrating, amnesia, genital hypersensitivity, and premature ejaculation. A closely related problem is post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD), which can cause total inability to feel the penis for males or for females the genitals and nipples, loss of sexual pleasure, weak orgasms, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation. PSSD is often associated with general anhedonia, apathy, and poor mood. In this video, Masterjohn maintains that the reason there are no good solutions to these problems is because we have completely misunderstood the role of serotonin and SSRIs. Serotonin's role is to help mitochondria adapt to changing demands for oxygen-based energy production. SSRIs enhance some of the mechanisms, and interfere with others. They enter the cell and stimulate independent mechanisms of mitochondrial stress adaptation, but in doing so they turn a cyclical and rhythmic pathway into a constantly stimulated one, creating mitochondrial dependence and making mitochondria vulnerable to new-onset dysfunction upon withdrawal. Once they make it to the mitochondria itself, the SSRIs act as mitochondrial toxins.

Do You Have Hidden Mitochondrial Dysfunction? Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the earliest signs of aging and chronic disease—and most people don't know they have it. Mitome is the first at-home test that measures your cellular energy directly and gives you a personalized roadmap to optimize energy, slow aging, and protect against disease.

| How Lactate Alkalinizes Your Muscles | 06 Sep 2024 | 01:34:50 | |
For a long time, most people believed that when we exercise, our muscles make lactic acid, this acidifies the muscles, and the acidity contributes to contractile failure, fatigue, and delayed-onset muscle soreness. Some people still believe this. You may have heard the argument against it from well-known figures like Andy Galpin, or, if you're deep into the science, you may have read the work of George Brooks. In this lesson, we are going to cover the biochemistry of lactate production. We will see that we never make lactic acid, ever. We make lactate. Making lactate is fundamentally alkalinizing. We will take a look at the presentation of glycolysis in the Berg and Lehninger biochemistry textbooks to see that, on the one hand, they give us everything we need to know to understand that the human body never makes lactic acid, but, on the other hand, they really do not equip us well to understand where acidity does comes from during exercise. This is because they do not consider acid-base balance important enough to completely present the proton balances of the chemical reactions. Finally, we will cover what does cause muscular fatigue, take a look at the research on lactate supplements, and come to some conclusions about the best way to manage acidity during exercise to maximize performance. This is part of a larger course on the biochemistry of how we derive energy from food and use it to fuel our wellness, performance, and longevity.

| Does TMG have to be taken in the fasting state? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #291 | 04 Oct 2021 | 00:04:00 | |
Short Answer: While the body will tend to use TMG for methylation in the fasting state, it is normally found in food, so you should be able to absorb it with meals and hold on to it for later use, much as we do with folate.

| Is urinary mycotoxin testing useful for indoor mold exposure? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #290 | 01 Oct 2021 | 00:08:04 | |
Short Answer: When I had a serious case of indoor mold-induced illness, I tested my urine and my apartment dust for mycotoxins. Both were high, but the classes of toxins were totally different between the two, making me think the mycotoxins in my urine came from food rather than my apartment. Symptoms going away when outside of the apartment was a far more useful clue, so I think you should consider the cost of a vacation, the cost of mycotoxins, and assume you get more information out of taking the vacation, and then decide which to do.

| Ferritin sky-high without hemochromatosis? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #289 | 30 Sep 2021 | 00:11:35 | |
Short Answer: Even if genetics and other bloodwork don't look like hemochromatosis, sky-high ferritin justifies trying to lower it with blood donation or phlebotomy if inflammation markers are low. If this doesn't work, oxidative stress should be investigated. Watch the video or listen to the podcast with the links below.

| Will the booster shot be worth it? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #288 | 29 Sep 2021 | 00:14:36 | |
Short Answer: If optimizing for efficacy, the booster shot will likely be worth it for Pfizer, whereas other vaccines don't have clear evidence of declining efficacy yet. If optimizing for safety, one should be skeptical of the booster since a 3-dose regiment hasn't been tested in clinical trials. Plenty more at https://chrismasterjohnphd.com/support!

| How to use carbs and glycine for sleep. | Masterjohn Q&A Files #287 | 28 Sep 2021 | 00:10:52 | |
Short Answer: To get adequate raw material for melatonin synthesis in the brain, carbs can come any time of day and are best if high-glycemic. To suppress brain histamine levels, carbs in the evening, with low protein and relatively low fat, is best. From among protein, collagen is best at night for the glycine.

| What are the downsides to taking prescription calcitriol for bones? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #286 | 27 Sep 2021 | 00:05:41 | |
Short Answer: It requires more frequent dosing and has some risk of hypercalcemia, and it would be best to make sure you have adequate D and magnesium and aren't overdoing anything that could deplete D, such as other fat-soluble vitamins, first.

| NEW! Version 7 of the COVID Guide! | 26 Sep 2021 | 00:07:43 | |
Newly updated September 25, 2021, and now in Version 7: https://chris-masterjohn-phd.myshopify.com/products/the-food-and-supplement-guide-for-the-coronavirus This guide provides my recommendations for nutritional and herbal defense against COVID. This version covers 41 randomized controlled trials, which are the gold standard of evidence, as well as many other studies providing context for interpreting the trials. Since much of this research is recent, not all of it is peer-reviewed. However, I have used my own expertise in nutritional sciences and extensive experience evaluating research to fully review the quality of this evidence myself. This protocol represents the best of science-backed strategies for nutritional and herbal anti-COVID defense. The gold standard of evidence in medicine is the randomized, controlled trial, or RCT. In RCTs, people are randomly given a treatment, or not. That this is determined at random means people's health, behavioral traits, and choices play no role in the outcomes. This helps us be more confident the treatment really works, or doesn't work. We now have 41 RCTs on the ability of nutrients, herbs, or other natural compounds to fight COVID. While these trials are usually small, some haven't been peer-reviewed yet, some are funded by supplement manufacturers, and most haven't yet been replicated by different researchers from different institutions and different parts of the world, they are the best evidence we currently have and serve as the highest priority evidence used in this guide. In evaluating these trials, the most important things I looked for were whether the trials were done well, whether the data were reported clearly, and whether the interpretations were sound. However, I also considered the funding source, whether different groups had come to similar results, how much of the data was peer reviewed, and whether the substance is an essential nutrient. Based on these considerations, I categorized anything that made the cut into three tiers: "Essentials," "Best Add-Ons," or "These Might Help." Having better quality, more trustworthy, more consistent data, and having essential nutrient status pushed the strategies up toward the Essentials tier, while lacking these qualities pushed them down toward the "These Might Help" tier. Those with intermediate support are included as Best Add-Ons. The guide includes suggestions on how to tailor the protocol to your individual needs, your personal risk, your environmental risk, and your own risk tolerance. It also includes full instructions on how to implement the strategies. By the way, you can also get the report for free if you pre-order a copy of my Vitamins and Minerals 101 book.

| Does quinolinate sometimes indicate niacin or inflammation instead of B6? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #285 | 24 Sep 2021 | 00:11:33 | |
Short Answer: B6 cannot be ruled out, though inflammation and estrogen could also be involved. While it is possibly a regulated means of increasing excitatory effects of quinolinate, it makes sense to assume it may respond to B6. Watch the video or listen to the podcast with the links below.

| Why would 5,000 IU vitamin D cause tooth sensitivity? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #284 | 23 Sep 2021 | 00:06:53 | |
Short Answer: While it is unclear, it could relate to vitamin K depletion, hypercalcemia, or compensation in acid-base balance. First and foremost, use the full testing algorithm in Testing Nutritional Status: The Ultimate Cheat Sheet (available at https://chrismasterjohnphd.com/cheatsheet) rather than just testing 25(OH)D to determine deficiency.

| Cancer, IV Drips, and the Glutathione Vitamin C Connection | 06 Nov 2023 | 00:02:10 | |
Is high-dose vitamin C good for you?
High-dose intravenous vitamin C can selectively kill cancer cells in live patients and can save sepsis patients from dying, but it acts as a pro-oxidant in cancer and an antioxidant in sepsis.
So what does it do in the rest of us?
Oral doses of 2000 milligrams raise oxalate levels in most people, and as little as 400 milligrams raises oxalate in some people.
This seems to be the most sensitive indicator of a delicate imbalance with glutathione and other factors needed to recycle vitamin C. Such a balance actually needs to be avoided when killing cancer yet is critical to maintaining health in every other context.
Given that vitamin C is important to immunity and general health, how do we take advantage of these benefits without upsetting the delicate balance with glutathione and the propensity to generate oxalate?
That is the topic of this podcast.

| What's the best and most affordable diet for a hungry teenage boy? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #283 | 22 Sep 2021 | 00:14:48 | |
Short Answer: A half a gram to a gram of protein per pound of bodyweight, no more than 20-40 grams of that from protein powder, and whole foods supplying the targets for vitamins and minerals, erring on the side of overshooting them. Lentils and other legumes as primary carb foods and supply a portion of protein, and adjusting quality of meat to what you can afford, can help with budgeting.

| Why would MCV be elevated if MMA and FIGlu are normal? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #282 | 21 Sep 2021 | 00:06:49 | |
Short Answer: If the cause is nutritional, FIGlu cannot rule out folate deficiency as a cause because it reflects tetrahydrofolate rather than methylene-THF. So, increasing the dose of folate or switching from methylfolate to folinic acid could be tried. Otherwise the most likely nutritional solution would be copper.

| How to further explore slightly high coronary calcium and Lp(a) and borderline high LDL-P? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #281 | 20 Sep 2021 | 00:13:18 | |
Short answer: If inflammatory markers are low and Lp(a) is proportionally more elevated than LDL-P, then blood lipids probably account for part of the calcification, while factors impacting LDL oxidation come next and those impacting calcification directly come after that. For the latter two, the oxidative stress and calcium sections of the Cheat Sheet should be consulted. Plenty more at https://chrismasterjohnphd.com/support!

| Is blackstrap molasses toxic because of AGEs? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #280 | 17 Sep 2021 | 00:07:42 | |
Short answer: The science behind dietary AGEs being bad for us is very poor-quality. While food that is treated to excessively high heat, such as fried food, should not be the major portion of our diet, dietary tables of AGEs in foods are not accurate and dietary AGEs are probably not a major source of AGEs within our bodies. Blackstrap molasses should be seen as a sweetener that is better than refined sugar and can be an important source of minerals. Plenty more at https://chrismasterjohnphd.com/support!

| What type and how much psyllium to lower LDL-cholesterol? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #276 | 13 Sep 2021 | 00:10:59 | |
Short answer: 15 grams of psyllium husk should lower LDL-C over 6 weeks, and you may be able to get away with cutting the dose down to 5-10 grams if using a fine powder.

| What is the most sustainable way to implement carb cycling? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #275 | 10 Sep 2021 | 00:14:08 | |
Short answer: When trying to stop the early progression of insulin resistance, it is best to use a combination of strength, power and muscle building, fat loss, and high-intensity exercise in 20-second to one-minute bouts; to institute a rhythmic fasting-feeding cycle; and not to use berberine or metformin unless absolutely needed. One good way to integrate these is to use an "earn your carbs" approach to tie your carb rewards to specific physical activity goals. Access the show notes, transcript, and comments here.

| Startled?! Try Glycine! | 28 Oct 2023 | 00:12:52 | |
The ability to become startled is an adaptive behavior that protects us from being injured by a sudden threat, and prepares us for the fight-or-flight response when necessary. Nevertheless, getting startled too easily can be a sign that something is wrong. Here's what to do about it.

| If my methionine is high, do I need to worry about betaine? | Masterjohn Q&A Files #247 | 02 Aug 2021 | 00:03:44 | |

Question: If my methionine is high, do I need to worry about betaine? If your methionine is on the higher side then it's probably the case that you don't really have an issue with recycling homocysteine to methionine. TMG's role in methylation is to support the recycling of homocysteine methionine. So if your methionine levels are on the high side of normal then you probably don't need TMG, but I'm also not sure what you mean by methylation issues.
