Generate Energy

Having difficulty getting through your day?

When you think about increasing your energy, the options you probably think of are drinking caffeine or an energy drink, getting more sleep, exercising, or eating more calories.

Caffeine and energy drinks are a temporary tool that do not benefit your body, and you are probably concerned about eating more calories because you don’t want to gain weight.

You could increase the nutrient-density of your food to provide more beneficial micronutrients.

You could also improve your energy production by supporting your Electron Transport Chain.

Electron Transport Chain / Respiratory Chain

Fats and carbohydrates contain tons of energy which you liberate when you break down the carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds into glucose (carb) and free fatty acids (fat), then move this chemical energy through the Electron Transport Chain within your mitochondria to create electrical energy.

There are five enzyme complexes along this chain each requiring specific cofactors to complete this process:

Complex 1Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD)
Nicotinamide Riboside (NR)
Nicotinamide MonoNucleotide (NMN)
Complex 2Riboflavin (B2)
Succinic acid
Complex 3CoQ10
Vitamin K2
Complex 4Methylene Blue
Complex 5Magnesium
Vitamin A
Copper

Optimally you would assess how well you are utilizing glucose and fat as fuel, and if you are deficient in any of the above micronutrients so you may target your treatment, since too much of a given micronutrient could have the opposite effect – reducing your energy production versus increasing it. This can be done by utilizing the Mitome Test:

  • Mitome measures the five mitochondrial enzyme systems using a cheek swab and a batch of lab tests that are otherwise not available anywhere in a direct-to-consumer product.
  • Their unique analysis of this data categorizes you into one or more of twelve patterns, using the individual enzyme system results, their combinations, and their ratios.
  • Some of these patterns may be combined, leading to further unique combinations.
  • This then assembles a protocol for you based on which patterns you exemplify, using foods, supplements, environmental exposures and medications, and lifestyle strategies.
  • Your report is a graphically-rich explanation of your results, what they mean, how they make you unique, and how they impact your requirements. At the end, it puts together a protocol tailored to your unique “mitochondrial type.”
