Mitochondrial health: SS-31, MOTS-c and NAD+ in the research on cellular energy

SS-31, MOTS-c and NAD+ each reach mitochondrial energy production by a different route: a peptide that binds a membrane lipid, a peptide encoded in mitochondrial DNA that signals through AMPK, and the coenzyme the respiratory chain runs on. This guide follows what their cell, animal and human studies measured, the positive results and the null ones alike.
