In today’s email we cover the diet that reduces stroke risk by up to 25% in women, lion’s mane mushroom, and push-ups.
Feeling weaker than you used to? It’s not just about muscle mass, but also about mitochondrial function, without which your muscles can’t do much. Today’s sponsor, Timeline, has a mitochondria-boosting supplement that we wrote about previously as part of Dr. Greger’s Anti-Aging Eight, which is a list of incredibly well-evidenced longevity-inducing things we can take (if you’re looking for it in the list, it’s urolithin A, which you can see in our sponsor’s store, here) ← 30% off for 10almonds readers with code 30NEWSLETTER, by the way!

Science Links Mitochondria & Muscle Strength
As our muscles age, they naturally lose mass, strength, and function—a result of certain muscle fibers shrinking—contributing to fatigue and weakness beginning as early as our 30s.
Recent research highlights that the key player in this aging process is our mitochondria*, tiny-but-mighty organelles that produce more than 90% of our body’s energy. Importantly, scientists have found a strong link between decreased mitochondrial health and muscle health decline with aging, emphasizing the importance of maintaining these cellular engines.
A new way to support and improve muscle health as we age, Mitopure® by Timeline is clinically shown to meaningfully boost our mitochondrial health to improve muscle strength and endurance, without any change in exercise required.
