Many (but not all) of the peptides in this guide currently fall into this ambiguous middle ground
Whether peptides are prescribed for recovery, metabolic health, body composition, or performance, how they are handled plays a major role in both safety and effectiveness
While its main function is to carry out cellular respiration, a process that converts nutrients from food into ATP, there are many other functions mitochondria perform, including metabolic signaling, calcium regulation, autophagy (cellular clean-up) and apoptosis (cell death), neurogenesis (growth of new nerve tissue) and neuronal plasticity (aka neuroplasticity- our brains ability to grow and adapt), as well as the synthesis of other molecules (especially those in the immune system)
This involves a low glycemic index diet, exercise, therapies that help reduce excess androgens and estrogens, targeting insulin resistance and antioxidant status, acupuncture/electoacupuncture, and improving the luteal phase (progesterone balance)
