Electric life: Ions
Electrical charge differences determined by segregation of various ions, such as Na+, Cl-, Ca++ or K+ drive the electrical backbone of life itself

Different from both CoQ10 and PQQ, vitamin K can come in two forms: either its phylloquinone form (vitamin K1) or in its menaquinone form (vitamin K2)
Carnitine is what transports fatty acids into the mitochondria of your cells, where these are oxidized into molecules of ATP, that provide energy for your body
Ketone bodies formation allows for continuous oxidation of fatty acids and is a healthy energy production adaptation
Glutathione conjugation is one of the 6 phase 2 detox pathways of the body, responsible for approximately 60% of toxin processing
A molecule of glucose can yield up to 36 molecules of ATP, whereas fatty acids can yield 3 or even 4 times as much
The first amino acid to be discovered was asparagine, in 1806 and the last of the 20 to be found, threonine, was not identified until 1938
Did you know that the oxidation of carbohydrates is the central energy-yielding pathway?
