## Resource

In Part 3 of his presentation at Dave Asprey's BEYOND Biohacking conference in May, Dr. Mike completes this three-part series by moving fully into the practical applications of mitochondrial optimization. After recapping the six pillars of mitochondrial function — energy production, mitogenesis, mitophagy, dynamics, ROS protection, and light — this episode breaks down the major tools, compounds, and lifestyle strategies that can help support each pillar. Dr. Mike covers urolithin A and B, shilajit, mitochondrial peptides, nano gold, taurine, molecular hydrogen, deuterium depletion, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, circadian light, indoor lighting, and grounding. The episode then brings everything together into a practical “Energy Code Blueprint,” outlining a daily and weekly framework for the true mitochondriac: sunlight, grounding, mitohormesis, red light therapy, methylene blue, selective antioxidants, mitochondrial peptides, and foundational compounds that support cellular energy, resilience, and longevity. (Educational content only, not medical advice.) - Key Quotes From Dr. Mike: “Urolithin A is simply one of the most effective, efficient, efficacious ways to activate the mitophagy switch.” “SS-31 arguably is the top peptide I would recommend for overall mitochondrial function.” “MOTS-c… is essentially exercise in a molecule... Humanin… is known as a cognitive or neuroprotector in terms of a peptide... SHLP-2… is the cellular survival signal peptide... (SS-31, MOTS-c, Humanin & SHLP-2) are the peptides I would look at from a mitochondriac perspective.” “Nano gold itself doesn’t create energy; it multiplies & amplifies the light that does.” “Molecular hydrogen penetrates every cellular compartment, including the mitochondria.” “Deuterium depletion is one of the m…
