    A single 15min exposure to red light boosts mitochondria and lowers blood glucose

    A human study, which makes it that much more important. While the findings are not very surprising, what is important to take from the study is that 1) elevated blood glucose is likely a good biomarker of poor mitochondrial function, 2) exposure to just 15min of red light daily can lower blood...

    Key importance of nucleotides (underlooked dietary factor)

    Cellular repair growth & replication needs nucleotides as building substance, base of DNA/RNA. Cells salvage their nucleotide needs (we ingest RNA from foods and re-incorporate it), or cells synthesise some of it (as purines and pyrimidines) Benjamin Frank, one of the early pioneers who used...

    The fraud unravels - statins cause, not prevent heart disease (CVD)

    While the news that the statin fraud is finally being exposed is certainly good, it is sad that it took so many decades to admit to something so biochemically obvious. Namely, since statins interfere with the synthesis of mevalonic acid, as a consequence they also inhibit the synthesis of the...

    Mammals can generate ATP from sunlight like plants , if they eat chlorophyll (interesting)

    Light-harvesting chlorophyll pigments enable mammalian mitochondria to capture photonic energy and produce ATP Light-harvesting chlorophyll pigments enable mammalian mitochondria to capture photonic energy and produce ATP Effect is enhanced by (dependant on?) chlorophyll substances...

    Iron is essential for ability of thyroid hormone to function

    Study highlighting the importance of having good iron levels for peat approach to health. in the peat realm sometimes there's a tilted view against iron as if it's on the same level as a PUFA or something to be avoided, so can be overlooked. (overload toxicity isn't good + trying to fix...

    The performance enhancing effects of erythromycin

    This study looked at the performance enhancing effects of erythromycin and other anti-biotics in mice, with some pretty interesting results. Erythromycin was very effective at increasing the swimming time in mice. "After intragastric administration for 3consecutive days, erythromycin showed a...

    Vitamin B1 (thiamine) may treat Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

    A human case study, corroborated by the literature review done by the authors, suggesting that yet another degenerative and invariably lethal condition may be nothing more than energetic deficiency in disguise. The literature review the authors performed revealed that ALS patients, as well as...

    Cerebral vitamin B5 deficiency (pantothenic acid) as a potentially reversible cause of neurodegeneration and dementia in Alzheimers HD PD [myelin]

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6630497/ b5 plays a role in helping age related cognitive decline , used for myelin aka. the sheath around nerves that enables electrical signals to travel well , along with cellular ATP from oxidative phosphorylation Vitamin B5 (d-pantothenic...

    Metabolic rate may determine personality type and disease risk

    Very interesting study that links mitochondrial density/number (and as such, the metabolic rate) with personality types. Namely, people with fewer mitochondrial (i.e. hypometabolic) tend to have high levels of neuroticism, with the latter causally linked to a higher risk of a number of serious...

    Thiamine+biotin can treat Huntington Disease (HD), by restoring glucose metabolism

    Many carrot-salads ago, back in ancient pre-pandemic times, I posted a study on high-dose biotin (300mg daily) stopping the so-called primary-progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) - the most aggressive variant of this "autoimmune" illness. The proposed mechanism of action for the benefit seen in...

    Niacinamide fully reverses endotoxemia and leaky gut (from ethanol)

    The study below is a true gem due to both its broadness of impact, as well as the ease and low-cost of the therapeutic intervention it studied. Chronic endotoxemia, a cause and a result of increased gut permeability (aka "leaky gut") is now known to be a major cause of virtually all chronic...

    Niacinamide increases ATP/NAD, lower glucose/cortisol in humans

    A great new study demonstrating for the first time in a human experiment what hundreds of animal studies had suggested in the past. Namely, that niacinamide can serve as a reliable precursor to NAD+ and by raising the NAD/NADH ratio results in improved glucose metabolism and higher ATP levels...

    The heart cannot be the sole driver of blood circulation

    The circulation appears to be driven not only by the heart, but also by the vessels themselves. The fuel for this second driving mechanism lies in infrared energy, which emerges naturally from metabolic heat, as well as from external sources (solar energy)...

    Restoring oxidative metabolism has curative effects on cancer (leukemia)

    A great study, which directly demonstrates not only the OXPHOS deficiency characteristic of all "cancer" cells, but also proving that restoration of OXPHOS is highly therapeutic (and likely curative) for leukemia. Just as importantly, the study demonstrates that cancer cells have, in fact...

    Infrared/red light applied to the skull can treat Alzheimer's/dementia...

    ...and improve cognition even in healthy people! The mechanism of action is the familiar effects of red/infrared light on stimulating mitochondrial function, and especially complex IV, while also decreasing chronic inflammation. The regimen was light exposure for 6min, twice a day, for 4 weeks...

    Vitamin B1 and/or biotin may treat Huntington Disease (HD)

    As some of my own studies with cancer recently demonstrated, vitamins are no laughing matter when it comes to their ability to treat very serious conditions. This seems to be especially true in regards to the B vitamins, which are required co-factors for most of the metabolic reactions inside...

    Both "long" COVID-19 and CFS are likely caused by hypometabolism

    A good study that examines the remarkable parallels between the so-called "long" COVID-19 (i.e. chronic display of symptoms associated with COVID-19) and the (in)famous chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Namely, increases inflammation, excessive glycolysis, suppressed mitochondrial function and...
