🦠🔬⚡ ''From this intimate alliance emerged the eukaryotic cell – and with it, the possibility of complex life. Every plant, animal and thinking being traces its lineage back to that ancient symbiosis. Our capacity for reflection, imagination and doubt rests upon what was once a free-living microbe. We call these descendants mitochondria.''

🧪 Daily Lab Note

Hair, Mitochondria, and Kidney Health: Lab Notes, April 21
New evidence links NAD+ to hair pigmentation, while kidney disease trials reveal mitochondrial benefits from NR and CoQ10.

· Boosting NAD+ may slow hair greying by protecting melanocytes
· Nicotinamide riboside and CoQ10 improve mitochondrial function in chronic kidney disease
· Overtraining signs may be subtler than previously thought
