From Fatigue to Clarity: Healing Mitochondria and the Brain with Dr. Scott Sherr

β€’ Isabelle Amigues, MD


In this episode of the UnabridgedMD Podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr, board certified internal medicine physician and a pioneer in integrative and functional medicine, to dive deep into the root causes of fatigue, anxiety, and brain fog β€” and how to begin truly healing the body from the inside out.

They explore the massive role mitochondria play in cellular energy, how chronic stress and sympathetic overdrive disrupt neurotransmitters like GABA and glutamate, and how 94% of Americans are likely living with some level of mitochondrial dysfunction.

Dr. Sherr and Dr. Amigues also discuss the emerging use of methylene blue as a tool to support mitochondrial function β€” providing a fast-acting bridge to healing while long-term nutritional and lifestyle strategies take effect.

Whether you're a patient experiencing brain fog or fatigue, or a provider seeking deeper root-cause tools, this episode offers actionable insights and science-backed strategies to support mental clarity, emotional balance, and whole-body energy.

Topics Covered:

  • The connection between chronic stress, GABA depletion, and anxiety

  • How glutamate and GABA work together to balance brain function

  • Why 94% of Americans show signs of mitochondrial dysfunction

  • The role of nutrients, minerals, and fatty acids in energy production

  • How methylene blue supports mitochondrial health and energy
