    Complete hunch here. I reason that the breathing portion of Wim Hof method promotes mitophagy. Why? I cured afib with the method. Afib is related to mitochondrial dysfunction. Upon first beginning, or resuming the method after a long break, oxygen saturation does not max at 99% on a pulse oximeter. It takes time to work up to that. My hunch is that healthier mitochondria are selected and grown during that time, while less fit mitochondria are eliminated. I am so much healthier now with just this and time restricted eating. It is a night and day difference. Thanks for all you do.

    I think art of the key is fasting most people dont understand the power of what happens but I have fasted a lot and there are hacks these days to make it even easier mainly Bullet proof coffee or tea with MCT oil or butter n salt. It doesnt sound appetizing but its purpose is to knock down ur grehlin or hunger hormone n it does that quite well to enable to put your body in a fastive state without too much uncomfort say to skip a meal like breakfast n wait for say noon or later for your first meal of the day. So its like a training plan for fasting which will becomes easier and easier over time for those who've never tried it. to try and get their body into ketosis when their insulin level drops and their body starts getting energy from fats stored inside their body verse something they eat like carbs or sugars, Believe me its a strange feeling almost like spiritual cuz your no longer hungry or craving food yet you have plenty of energy.

    Pronunciation: u ro ‘li thin
    What specifically is converted to Urolithin A? Ellagic acid?ellagitannins? (And if so, which?)
    Which bacteria do the conversion?
    Because you stated in your video, Urolithin A is produced in the gut from certain compounds by certain bacteria. How can you know this to be the case? Where was the conversion observed?
    Gut production of Urolithin A is hand waved.
    What’s the maximum safe level of Urolithin A to intake? What happens with over supplementation, such as for people who produce Urolithin A, and also supplement it? Is the excess useless or harmful?
    You said Urolithin A also “blunts inflammatory responses“. Does it? Or is that an effect of increased mitochondrial functioning, reducing the deleterious effects of ROS? Or is it an effect of removing damaged mitochondria which are known to produce inflammation?

    I would like to know the differences between those supplementing with Urolithin A, and those adopting a rigorous program of exercise, in terms of mitochondrial health and functioning. My guess would be that exercise may be more effective than taking this pill, a lot less expensive, much more readily available, and would have many other benefits to health beyond mitochondrial function.

      Your body....and whatever other creatures or viruses are in you. Viruses always scream for sugar. When you get a cold, it is best to ignore that message and hit the chicken soup.
      There are also a few addictive foods. There is a substance in cheese, for example. I think the companies that make cheese puffs and such take advantage of this and add more of it. "Cheese contains casein, a dairy protein that releases casomorphins, which are plant compounds that trigger dopamine production in your brain." And very toxic Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) are addictive substances made in the Maillard browning reaction. This was probably a survival thing from times of old when you were better off eating meat that was fully cooked rather than potentially getting something that will give you parasites. Those AGEs can kill you as they accumulate, just later in your 60s, 70s or 80s by hardening your tissues and causing inflammation.
      Bodies are also about habit. If you meet needs in the same ways, and it works, your body will remember. But as you pointed out. If the needs are met with something else, that craving may not happen much, after a time.

    I recently came across a study on pomegranate juice - which most likely contains the substance that converts to Urolothin-A. The study showed significant improvements in exercise performance from those who took pomegranate juice. My guess is that the improvements are were to urolothin-A.
    Also, what the study indicates to me is that pomegranate extract may work as just as well as Mitopure - if you are a lean individual. It is certainly much less expensive than Mitopure.

    The carb issue is rubbish. Look at the associations in methylation in the GrimAge methylation clock data. More carbs means a longer life. More fat means a shorter life. Protein makes little difference.
    The anti-high fructose corn syrup craze is also bunk. It was not the cause of the obesity epidemic. If it were, obesity would have gone down from 2000 to 2019, because we went from eating 62.5 lb to 36.7 lb of the stuff. But that is not what happened, obesity climbed dramatically in that time. 21.8% to 31.3% (self-reported. People exaggerate their height and take a few pounds off their weight when surveyed. But they likely lied as much in 2000 as 2019. When people are actually measured, there is around 10% more that are obese).
    The actual cause? Likely it is the unabated spread of Adenoviruses 5, 36, and 37. That really took off in the 1980s. When animals are infected with these, they also become obese.

    Sure sounds like you got the jabbaroo. Your voice sounds sick! This is happening to so many people since 2020. Look into protocols that involves augmented NAC, Natttokinace and bromoline.
