Mitochondria are the power plants of cells, converting nutrients into usable energy (ATP). Mitochondrial dysfunction occurs when this process is impaired, leading to low energy, fatigue, inflammation, and cellular stress.

Fructose metabolism places unique stress on mitochondria:
- Rapid ATP depletion during fructokinase activation
- Increased uric acid, which directly inhibits mitochondrial enzymes
- Excess fat accumulation, which impairs mitochondrial structure

Poor mitochondrial function is implicated in:
- Chronic fatigue
- Neurodegenerative diseases
- Metabolic syndrome
- Cravings and weight gain

The effects are wide-ranging because mitochondria are central to every system in the body.

Many people experience signs of mitochondrial dysfunction without knowing it—like poor exercise tolerance, brain fog, or mid-day crashes. These symptoms often trace back to fructose metabolism as an overlooked root cause.

By blocking fructose metabolism and reducing uric acid, we aim to protect mitochondrial health and restore normal energy production—supporting not just metabolic health, but mental clarity, mood, and vitality."
