About this course

Deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, is now being recognised as potentially having a greater effect on health than previously understood. Dr. Seneff, who has been closely following the latest research, will provide clear insights into why we should be paying attention to deuterium and what practical steps you can take in your clinical practice.

Deuterium differs from regular hydrogen because its nucleus contains both a proton and a neutron, while hydrogen typically has just a proton. Though naturally present in water at around 150 parts per million, deuterium exists in trillions of atoms within each of our cells.

Emerging research shows that high levels of deuterium can negatively affect health by binding more tightly to other molecules, potentially slowing metabolic reactions, causing mitochondrial dysfunction, reducing insulin sensitivity, altering gene expression, and increasing oxidative stress. These effects are linked to a wide range of conditions, and Dr. Seneff will walk you through how these issues arise and how you can help patients lower their deuterium levels for better health outcomes.

Dr Stephanie Seneff

Dr Stephanie Seneff PhD is a Senior Research Scientist at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. For over three decades, her research interests have always been at the intersection of biology and computation: developing a computational model for the human auditory system, understanding human language so as to develop algorithms and systems for human computer interactions, as well as applying natural language processing techniques to gene predictions.

She has published over 170 refereed articles on these subjects, and has been invited to give keynote speeches at several international conferences. 

In recent years, Dr. Seneff has focused her research interests back towards biology. She is concentrating mainly on the relationship between nutrition and health. Since 2011, she has published over two dozen papers in various medical and health-related journals on topics such as modern day diseases (e.g., Alzheimer, autism, cardiovascular diseases), analysis and search of databases of drug side effects using natural language processing techniques, and the impact of nutritional deficiencies and environmental toxins on human health.
