🔋 Mitochondrial Health & ATP — The Heart of Cellular Energy

Mitochondria are like tiny power plants inside every cell, producing ATP — the energy molecules that fuel every physiological process from movement to metabolism and cognition.

Why This Matters

  • Aging & Mitochondrial Function: Mitochondrial efficiency decreases with age, leading to lower energy production and more oxidative stress.

  • Supplementation Strategies: Nutrients like creatine, magnesium, and compounds like urolithin A (emerging evidence) help improve mitochondrial function and energy output.

How It Works

  • ATP is the currency of cellular energy.

  • Creatine supports rapid regeneration of ATP.

  • Magnesium is involved in the enzymes that create ATP.

  • Efficient mitochondria mean better endurance, recovery, and cellular resilience.

Conclusion: Optimal mitochondrial health is foundational — it powers muscle, brain, metabolism, and even longevity pathways.
