Mitochondrial Function stimulates

Heat Production

Burning fuel as heat rather than storing it. Raising it increases energy expenditure without requiring more activity, which is the appeal of the glucagon component in the dual and triple agonists.

Mitochondrial Function suppresses

Oxidative Stress

Damage from reactive oxygen outpacing the cell's ability to mop it up. One of the mechanisms behind androgen effects on liver and heart tissue that are not explained by the receptor alone.

Beyond this page

Mitochondrial Function also connects to 3 entries in the applied modules, covering supplements, compounds, hormones and food sources. Those carry the mechanism and the evidence tier behind each link, and they are part of client coaching.
