Many moons ago when I was a freshman in Med School I was given the task of transcribing notes from a lecture. As fate would have it that lecture was on something known as The Electron Transport Chain.
In simple terms this is a cascade of steps down hill each of which release energy and then steps back up the hill to regenerate this energy.
All of this takes place in our little friends the mitochondria.
Little did I know that the hours of work and study to polish those notes to perfection would come in so handy decades later!
If you’ve been with me for a while it will come as no surprise that I was talking about mitochondria before it was in vogue to do so. I’ve actually been talking about it so long its no longer in vogue LOL!
Many illnesses will eventually be found to have a major basis in mitochondrial dysfunction including heart failure and quite probably cancer. The role of mitochondria in epigenetics has yet to be properly explored.
But what about health? Specifically, what about healthy aging.
As we age our mitochondria start to fail use and get sloppy. The loose energy, waste energy and simply don’t make as much as they used to. Much of this is due to a failure in the substrates the mitochondria need to make these energic transformations.
I can promise you this area is hugely neglected.
I created Toco Q as an antidote to aging mitochondria and energy failure. It is an improvement over straight Co Q and unlike PQQ its not unproven or overhyped.
Toco Q is my secret weapon against aging in my power houses.
It’s allowed me to continue to do things I used to do 20+ years ago and in some cases better.
If you’re not on it, you should be. Its as important as a daily vitamin!
