for Better Energy, Mood & Performance Mitochondria play a critical role in our quality of life and longevity. They are the source of life and death for neurons . In fact, the natural function of every brain cell is in jeopardy without healthy mitochondria.

Mitochondria are tiny organelles in brain cells that act like batteries. They generate most of the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) that your cells use for energy.

The human brain has a higher concentration of these little cellular powerplants than most other cells in your body. You have anywhere from two to several thousand mitochondria in each brain cell. They even have their own DNA .

In fact, they are your body’s master energy system. Allowing you to hear, feel and see. Mitochondria beat your heart, stimulate your sex drive and allow you to think.

Mitochondria power every function and organ in your body.

So the importance of maintaining healthy mitochondria, and growing new ones ( mitochondriogenesis ), must be at the heart of planning any nootropic stack .

When you increase the number of mitochondria, you have more energy to power through your day . Why Mitochondria Need Your Help

Mitochondria are especially vulnerable because they don’t have some of the systems that protect and repair DNA in the rest of the host cell. And it’s easier than you’d expect to hurt mitochondria. Mitochondria and ALCAR Mitochondria evolved from ancient bacteria. At some point, cells swallowed up these primitive bacteria. And over time, they have become our own cell’s power plants.So logic tells us that any drug or compound that targets bacteria will also have an impact on these tiny cellular powerplants.Antibiotics are a classic enemy of mitochondria. And it’s not just the prescription that your doctor writes. In 2011 alone, 5.6 million kilograms of tetracycline were fed to livestock in the USA. You’re exposed every day to these drugs that harm your brain cell’s mitochondria.When your mitochondria begin to deplete, or get weaker, you lose your energy. Dysfunction of mitochondria has been implicated in things like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, [i] Parkinson’s […]
