The Cell Danger Response Explained (Why You're Not Healing) | HOMe Podcast #006
Episode 6
Wednesday, 15 April, 2026
In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, join Boomer Anderson, Dr. Ted Achacoso, and Jodi Duval as they break down one of the most important frameworks in Health Optimization Medicine — the Cell Danger Response (CDR). Originally developed by Dr. Robert Naviaux, the Cell Danger Response explains how cells respond to threat, adapt for survival, and either resolve or become "stuck" — leading to chronic disease. This episode walks through the three stages of the CDR, how mitochondria act as both sensors and signaling hubs, and why many modern conditions — from inflammation to chronic illness — are actually stalled healing processes. Most importantly, the team explains how clinicians and individuals can identify where the body is "stuck" and what to do (and NOT do) to support proper resolution. Join us as we delve into: What the Cell Danger Response (CDR) is and why it matters The 3 stages: defense, repair, and resolution How mitochondria act as sensors — not just energy producers Why inflammation is a protective response, not the problem How chronic disease reflects a "stalled" healing process This episode is for you if: You're dealing with chronic inflammation or unresolved health issues You want to understand the root cause of disease beyond symptoms You're a practitioner looking for a systems-based framework You want to optimize health by working with your biology, not against it You can also find this episode on… YouTube: https://youtu.be/NWEq32hlZrE Find more from Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMeHOPe): Website: https://homehope.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homehopeorg/ Virtual Symposium 2026: https://homehope.org/homehope-virtual-symposium-2026 Use PODCAST10 to get 10% OFF your purchase of the Clinical Metabolomics Module at https://homehope.org/products/clinical-metabolomics Find more from Troscriptions: Website: https://troscriptions.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Use POD10 to get 10% OFF your Troscriptions purchase at https://troscriptions.com/collections/our-products
