In this episode, we break down energy properly — not as a vague feeling, but as a biological process.
Because “I’m tired” can mean a lot of different things… and treating them all the same is where people get stuck.
In this episode, we cover:
⚡ Two Very Different Types of Energy
Why feeling tired is not the same as having low cellular energy
How the brain regulates fatigue based on stress, sleep, hormones, inflammation, and emotional load
Why caffeine can make you feel energetic without fixing the real issue
🔋 Cellular Energy Explained (Without the Buzzwords)
What ATP actually is — and why it matters for everything
The real role of the mitochondria (not just “battery packs”)
How mitochondria decide:
Whether you burn or store fat
How you adapt to stress and exercise
How resilient your metabolism really is
Why mitochondrial health responds to demand, not supplements alone
💤 The Non-Negotiables for Real Energy
Why sleep quality and circadian rhythm matter more than most protocols
How resistance training + steady Zone 2 movement signal mitochondrial growth
Why overeating and poor food quality quietly sabotage energy in midlife
How midlife changes the rules — without making results harder
💉 B Vitamins & B12 — When They Help (and When They Don’t)
The role of B vitamins in energy metabolism
Why B12 shots can be powerful for absorption issues and age-related decline
Why feeling better on B12 doesn’t mean your mitochondria were “broken”
When B12 supports the system — and when it’s masking something else
🧬 MOTS-c: Why It’s Marketed as an “Energy Peptide”
What it means to be a mitochondrial-derived peptide
How MOTS-c supports:
Metabolic flexibility
Glucose handling
Insulin sensitivity
AMPK (fat-burning, cellular cleanup)
Why it’s often called an “exercise-mimicking” peptide
The real-world issue: dose, cost, and compliance
🔒 5-Amino-1MQ: Protecting Energy at the Source
Why NAD+ matters for mitochondrial energy production
The problem with simply adding more NAD+
How NNMT drains NAD+ with age
Why 5-Amino-1MQ works by protecting your own NAD+
Why energy improvements can be dramatic — and sustainable
Why this approach works with the body instead of chasing stimulation
🧠 The Final Distinction That Changes Everything
Feeling tired = a brain signal
Low cellular energy = a capacity issue
Why no peptide, vitamin, or injection overrides personal responsibility
And why — when the foundations are in place — results can show up fast
