Yes, your mitochondria may be the most important part of your cell, dictating your daily mood, feel, cognition and physical function through its modulation of energy dynamics. But that doesn’t mean it’s actually calling the shots… In fact, new research has brought their interesting origins back into the limelight, highlighting how their ancient bacterial roots […]

“Protein for Longevity” has always been framed in the context of staying strong and able into your golden years. With an adequate amount of amino acids being absolutely necessary to stimulate the all important growth signal “muscle protein synthesis”, and thus the longevity of ones structural self. But… What if that wasn’t the whole story… […]

One of the amazing things about us humans, and animals in general, is our ability to heal. Sometimes right before our eyes, as is the case for physical wounds. But many times, happening where the eye can’t see, within the depths of our pretty cool meat suit, ultimately keeping us thriving for longer! That is… […]

By now most of you longevity enthusiasts are privy to the natural deterioration of muscle mass as we age (Sarcopenia) and know how serious of a problem it tends to become for the average intelligent walking ape as they enter their golden years or life. Because, it’s pretty damn hard to stay “able and capable” […]

In recent decades carbon dioxide (C02) has increasingly become a “no-no” word. Being singled-out as the “gas” which is going to lead this planet to… well, extinction. So, it’s totally understandable where all this “lets get rid of C02” rhetoric comes from. However, there are plenty of good reasons why we definitely DON’T want to […]

The Immune system has had no problems getting its fair share of press these days. However, almost every article (scientific or not) fails to address the highly combustible elephants in the cellular room. “Mini” elephants which sit at the very core to complex cellular life as we know it, having a direct and indirect effect […]

Living in a world of unlimited fuel being shoveled into the local power plants seems like a good thing, at least at first glance… Charging up ALL the devices in our homes 24/7 with no need to worry about missing the next talking dog video that scrolls-up on our feed. That is, of course until […]

The cold hard truth is… MOST intelligent walking apes on this beautiful floating rock settle with dysfunction. They become expecting and accepting of the “this is just what happens when you get old” narrative to explain being constantly tired, lethargic, achy, moody, sad, anxious, and flat out discontent. Being a victim of never realizing the […]

Ready for a Biological Tale? There is a magical land deep within all of our cells which transforms the food we eat into the energy which, well…. allows us to eat more food… Oh, and carry out life as we know it, but who’s keeping score. This “Land” is an organelle called the Mitochondria, a […]

Here’s a little-known Longevity Fact….Mitochondrial Dysfunction happens to be one of the TOP longevity liabilities on the market….. Proving to be, not-only one of the underlying mechanisms of Aging…. But chronic inflammation and metabolic disease(s) across the board…. Damaging these cellular power plants affects not-only the -kinda important task- of energy production, but metabolite conversion […]
