Description
Oxidative damage to the mitochondria is a major factor in cellular aging, along with neurological decay. While lifestyle interventions, such as calorie restriction, help improve mitochondrial function in young non-obese adults, certain supplements such as L-carnitine are also of therapeutic benefit. The salt of L-carnitine, called acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC), is the preferred form for conditions of disease and aging as it has better absorption and readily crosses the blood-brain barrier. ALC has been shown not only to improve mood, but also to exert a significant function in the disorders of aging, including fatigue, hypertension, insulin resistance, diabetic neuropathy, and dementia.
Mito AMP also provides Ginkgo biloba extract, resveratrol, R-alpha-lipoic acid, and grape seed proanthocyanidins, all of which modulate mitochondrial function, enhance cognitive function, and/or reduce inflammation associated with cognitive decline. Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) plays a key role in mitochondrial biogenesis via cell signalling (PGC-1 alpha), with clinical trials showing improved cerebral blood fl ow and brain function, improved memory when combined with CoQ10, as well as increased vigour and a significant reduction in symptoms of fatigue, tension, low mood, and confusion.
