In this episode, Angela explains how mitochondria produce energy, why mitochondrial function can become less efficient with age and hormonal change, and the three advanced supplements she personally uses as part of her longevity strategy: NAD precursors, urolithin A and MitoQ.

You’ll discover how each targets a different aspect of mitochondrial health — energy production, mitochondrial renewal and protection against oxidative stress — and why supplements work best when layered on top of the fundamentals of sleep, nutrition, exercise, cardiovascular fitness, stress management and, where appropriate, optimising hormones.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Why Energy Can Change in Menopause — Declining oestrogen can influence mitochondrial biogenesis and the efficiency of cellular energy production.

NAD for Cellular Energy — NAD plays a critical role in helping mitochondria convert food and oxygen into ATP, the energy currency of your cells.

Urolithin A for Mitochondrial Renewal — Urolithin A supports mitophagy, the body’s natural process for clearing damaged mitochondria and making room for healthier ones.

MitoQ for Mitochondrial Protection — MitoQ is designed to reach the mitochondria directly and help protect them against oxidative stress generated during energy production.
