Energy In Humans

In humans, energy -- ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) -- is produced via cellular respiration in the mitochondria. N2M's patent-pending proprietary composition utilizes, what we call, biochemical scaffolds that ultimately help modulate various cell activities to stimulate the production of energy, the essential element required to sustain life. Simply stated, our invention functions as an effective catalyst to aid the transformation of cellular respiration by stimulating the Krebs Cycle to help:

  1. Efficiently bring oxygen (O2) to the cell, helping replenish the cell's energy. 
  2. Bind free radicals, ultimately minimizing mitochondrial DNA damage.
  3. Replenish physical and mental Energy in living organisms.

Approximately 10,000 times a day a cell is subjected to free- radicals, if not more. This is referred to as oxidative stress. Not only can they destroy mitochondrial membranes but can also cause mitochrondrial DNA damage such as point mutation, deletion, nucleic acid modification whereas the entropic contribution is unfavorable; mainly affecting the enzymes involved in the electron transport system. This leads to mitochrondial dysfunctioning, resulting in decreased energy production and apoptosis or in other words cellular death.

The healthy human body deals with free radical production with the assistance of 3 main intracellular free radical binders those being antioxidant that reduce the toxic free radicals or slow them down from doing damage. Super oxide dismutase binds the super oxides and converts them to hydrogen peroxides and oxygen. The glutathione and catalase binds hydrogen peroxide and converts it to water and O2. When these antioxdants are performing the task at hand the mitochondria can continue to make the energy it is supposed to make. Hence the cell can continue to operate efficiently . It should be noted that where there is oxidative stress (free radical )and decreased ATP production these events are more noticeable in brain and muscles.

Additionally there are no histones protecting the mitochondria DNA unlike the Nuclear DNA where histones are protective. In the absence of histones (highly alkaline proteins found in eukaryotic cell nuclei that package and order the DNA into structural units called nucleosomes). Mitochrondrial DNA is vulnerable to free radicals attacks, also there is no repair mechanisms in place for mitochondrial DNA. In order to keep making energy (ATP) the cell must be able to bind these free – radicals.
