I mean, and I've been in class and study, and so I've looked at studies and analyzed them now and seen things right on paper that are that. are facts and, you know, mitochondrial function, ATP production, it starts to decline probably when we get into our later thirties or early forties, based on everything and piece of literature I said, and I'm seeing an eight to 10% decline per decade.

And that's just general, just normal, maybe on somebody that's even in good health. And, you know, you can have what skeletal, just decreased skeletal muscle function. You could lose mass because of that. what's the entire process of creating new mitochondria slows down when we get older. I think that's a well-known fact. So that means that we have a lower number of healthy mitochondria.

So I don't know how they could say or determine who or what, because some people start to have a degradation of mitochondria at a younger age too. So I don't know how one could say that or prove it that someone's optimized or not based on mere side effects and especially, you know,

Yes. And that's why it tends to start happening at that age because when you start, I mean, essentially, I don't want to sound morbid, but when your mitochondria start to die, you essentially start to die. That's like the dying process, correct? I mean, of course, pretty much. And don't all diseases generally start in the mitochondria or the cell membrane in general. Yep. mostly.

And then I guess you would look alternatively to the gut if it's like that extra five or 10% that's left over, but everything- Yeah.

Yeah. I'm curious about something. I don't know how versed you are on peptides or not. So if you're not, just throw this to the side. But I'm curious if methylene blue kind of stacks well with anything else, especially on the side of mitochondrial health.

So I'm thinking, and this isn't peptide related, but urolithinate or peptide related, something like MOTC or SS31 that are really may have different functions or mechanisms of action that could coincide and be very synergistic with it. Or is that, am I just, you know, creating something that's not there?

Yeah. And I will point this out and I, you kind of mentioned this earlier, but This is something I face when people come to me with a certain problem and I'm digging and I'm like, look, your hormones have to be optimized for a lot of these things to work. So we have to make sure that we're making lifestyle changes while taking these things too.

So if you're taking a methylene blue, you're taking something else to optimize your mitochondria. You still got to make other changes in your life, sleep better, lower stress, eat better, workout, exercise. These things are not going to work if you don't help them work, right?

Awesome. I know we're getting lower on time, but I do want to, I talked to you about this prayer.
