Food, Fasting, and Mitochondria: How Nutrient Timing Shapes Cellular Energy

Food and fasting both send important signals to your mitochondria. Learn how the body shifts between using incoming nutrients after meals and stored fuels during fasting, and why metabolic flexibility matters more than extreme restriction.

How Cells Share Mitochondria to Protect Nerves

A 2026 Nature study reveals that satellite glial cells can transfer mitochondria to sensory neurons, helping protect nerve function in models of peripheral neuropathy. Here is what the research means, and what it does not mean yet.

Why Does Energy Drop as We Get Older? What Changes at the Cellular Level

By age 80, the average person’s mitochondrial energy output drops by 50% while, at the same time, cellular damage skyrockets. This isn't because we are just "getting older," it’s a biological shift in your cellular power plants. We dive into the landmark research on mitochondrial mass and explore how targeted interventions like Mitozz are helping to shift the curve of aging to restore youthful energy at the source.

Mitochondria and Depression: The Bioenergetic Link to Mood

Mitochondria may play a deeper role in mood than once thought. This article explores the “Mito-Mood Hypothesis,” how cellular energy, oxidative stress, inflammation, and neuroplasticity may connect mitochondrial function with emotional resilience, and what practical habits can support the brain’s bioenergetic health.
