Mitochondrial support
For mitochondrial health and brain fog
The experts we follow agree on this.
Supporting mitochondria is key for energy, brain clarity, and healthy skin.
Who is behind it
Voices including a certified nutrition specialist, a registered nutritional therapist and a clinical nutritionist.
How strong the research is
Mostly expert experience so far, with published research still catching up.
In their words
“Number three, heal your mitochondria. That includes zone 2 training, CoQ10, alpha lipoic acid, creatine, sometimes cyclic ketosis like I talk about in women food and hormones, or a fasting mimicking diet.”

Poor mitochondrial function produces free radicals damaging cells; supporting mitochondria is crucial for energy and skin health, especially during topical steroid withdrawal.
Mitochondria need signals sent consistently over time; trying to do everything at once causes crashes.
These strategies are highlighted as important foundational supports to set clients up for success.

Boosting mitochondrial energy supports improved recovery and metabolic health.
Improving mitochondrial function may help with symptoms like brain fog, depressive disorders, and cognitive decline in perimenopause.
Healthy mitochondria are necessary for the retina to function and repair itself daily.
