About this listen
In this audiobook, you will be given an overview of the field of biochemistry. The following sections will take you through the fundamentals of biochemistry, starting with a short background in the field, an overview of the types of cells that are studied by biochemists, and the organization of structures within those cells. This will be followed by an introduction to the types of molecules that biochemists take interest in - proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. We begin to take a deeper look at the roles of these molecules in the structure and function of the cells, beginning with biological membranes, then the types and functions of some major classes of proteins, and completing the round up with a more detailed look at the nucleic acids and how they are involved in the processes of cell division and production of proteins.
There then follows a short section describing some of the major techniques that have been used by biochemists to gather their knowledge on the structure and function of biological macromolecules. In the next section, we take a look at the processes that drive all of these biological reactions, the heart of biochemistry - the metabolic reactions including glycolysis and the Krebs or citric acid cycle, with a brief look at how the fuel consumed by the body is used to produce this energy.
The final sections show some of the applications of biochemistry, including a look at how biochemists have contributed to the understanding of some of the most common human diseases, the uses of biochemical reactions in industry, and finally a quick look at the types of careers that are pursued by biochemists.

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. The legendary saga began over two billion years ago, when one bacterium entered another without being digested, which would evolve to create the first mitochondrion. Since then, for life to exist beyond single-celled bacteria, it's the mitochondria that have been responsible for this life-giving energy.

Story
The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

Only an outline
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
I was hoping to hear explanations of concepts, maybe go over some of the more important biological pathways and their relevance.
What was most disappointing about AudioLearn Editors’s story?
There was no substance, it was like they read the chapter headers for a book and that was it.
Would you be willing to try another one of AudioLearn Voice Over Team’s performances?
No
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Frustration and annoyance.
