Mitochondria: Their relevance during oocyte ageing

We need to support our fertility (and our overall health and aging) by supporting the energy powerhouses of all of our cells. In addition to diet (see previous post), there are other things we can do to upregulate or optimize our mitochondrial function

☠️ Clear toxins
🪱 Clear chronic infection
💧Drink distilled water
☀️ Sunlight daily 10 to 20 minutes per day
🏋️‍♀️ Strength training
🌱 Supplement support:

✅ BC-ATP - most powerful supplement for supporting and optimizing mitochondrial function 
✅ CT-Minerals - supports cellular repair and immunity, nourishes tissues, promotes energy production, and enhances mental clarity
 ✅ HydrOxygen - promotes several natural processes and functions, including ATP production, cellular respiration, and detoxification. 
✅ Advanced TUDCA - a strong inhibitor of mitochondrial apoptosis

Mitochondrial health is essential for optimizing f

Mitochondrial health is essential for optimizing fertility. If you feel tired and sluggish, chances are you don’t have optimal mitochondrial function and your fertility may be suffering.

The female egg cell (oocyte) is the most mitochondria-rich cell in existence, containing 100,000 mitochondria! (in contrast, sperm only have fewer than one hundred!) It takes about three months for our eggs to mature and during that time they need to be nourished.

If you are trying to conceive, it is so important to eat the right foods to optimize your mitochondrial function aka ATP/energy production. Here are the top nutrients that support mitochondrial function and the foods that are most rich in each.
Eat a variety!

Did you know that your energy levels and hormone health have everything to do with how well your mitochondria are functioning? If you don’t have the energy you think you should, it’s highly likely that there are toxins in your cells, blocking your Krebs (energy production) cycle from making ATP efficiently. ATP is the energy needed to power every physiological function of your body.

Mitochondria are cell organelles (similar to bacteria) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions. We have thousands of mitochondria in every cell and they are the true energy centers of each one. Your brain cells need well functioning mitochondria to allow you to think clearly, as well as every other organ and system in your body.

In your reproductive system, well-functioning mitochondria are extremely important for nurturing healthy egg development and sperm production - in addition to countless other functions.

Two of my favorite products - that I use both during active detox (to support energy), as well as like, ALL THE TIME:

✅ BC-ATP supports mitochondrial energy by detoxing on a cellular level so that it can produce energy as intended. BC-ATP is amazing in that it has a noticeable effect on the brain, helping with mood balance and cognitive function. It supports libido by giving you that extra energy needed when you might otherwise be “too tired”.

✅ S-TRO is an adaptogenic hormone balancer which means that it will balance your hormones regardless of what is high or low. It will clear out any hormones that you have an over-abundance of (often estrogen). It's super important that your liver drainage is working efficiently and I suggest a bit of detox work prior to using this. I recommend S-TRO for my fertility clients (male and female), as well as peri-menopause and menopause ladies!
