If there’s one thing in your cells you DO NOT want to break, it’s the piece that bottlenecks every single function the cell performs. Which is exactly why scientists broke it. In mice, that is. They sabotaged the mitochondria — the critical energy and signaling hub — in a batch of unlucky rodents, and the […]
Imagine there is a 27/4 factory constantly churning out energy to power a local town, but with it comes the natural, yet unfortunate byproduct of pollution. Over time this factory becomes less efficient with the ratio of energy-to-pollution becoming less and less practical…. Wouldn’t it be nice to just decommission this plant, and use its […]
You need to look no further than our favorite topic of circadian rhythms to realize that “Light” plays a sizable role in coordinating what goes on with our biology and when. As a growing body of evidence has displayed that when special photoreceptors in our eyes pick-up on certain spectrums, like blue light, signals are […]
You would think that having more energy producing/burning organelles within your pretty cool meat suit, and specifically fat cells themselves, would be a good thing. However, this biological phenomena seems to be a bit of a paradox. More mitochondria technically mean there is a greater potential to synthesize excess energy and keep a healthy balance […]
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 […]
Although our 5lb mushy membrane only takes up around ~2% of total body mass, it consumes a WHOPPING 20% of total energy. Making our neurons some of the most energy hungry cells we have… Which makes sense since they are the foundation for the cognitive prowess which has set us humans apart from the rest […]
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 […]
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 […]
