Peaty Energy Drink (no not Red Bull)
It's not perfect, but it's one of the best I can find and it even has thiamine (nitrate form) which is not common in energy drinks. It unfortunately has citric acid and agave instead of cane sugar. But it's other components and herbs feel really good and I can regularly depend on it for a mood... -
Vitamin B1 and/or biotin may treat Huntington Disease (HD)

This seems to be especially true in regards to the B vitamins, which are required co-factors for most of the metabolic reactions inside...- haidut

Aging is an energy deficiency problem, taking cardiolipin may reverse it

Does Coffee Inhibit B1 Absorption?
I've read multiple times that compounds in coffee can inhibit thiamin absorption. I am wondering if it inhibits it completely or just partly?

COVID-19 is an energy deficiency disease
Yet another seemingly non-metabolic disease turns out to be nothing but energy deficiency in disguise. Apparently, the SARS-CoV-2 virus selectively disables so-called complex I of the electron transport chain (ETC), and as such the overall OXPHOS process. Such inhibition is known to reliably...- haidut

Mitochondrial dysfunction may be the cause of anemia

Vitamin D deficiency impairs muscles by lowering energy production

PUFAs, cardiolipin, ATP production and obesity
As we all know, PUFAs are a metabolic toxin. One of the mechanisms how a high fat diet promotes obesity and metabolic syndrome is by remodeling cardiolipin. Cardiolipin is a unique mitochondrial phospholipid that contains 4 fatty acids. Its main goal is to stabilize the complexes of the electron...- Hans

Low energy production (glucose metabolism) may cause andropause
As many of my readers know, aging men can also experience the equivalent of menopause and doctors informally call that state "andropause".
