Mitochondria Drive Mental Performance
- 'Head Strong' centers on increasing cellular energy via mitochondria to improve thinking and focus.
- Enhancing mitochondrial function underlies both short-term hacks and long-term brain health.
Short-Term Sugar Boost
- If you need a short-term mental boost, add about 5–6 grams of sugar to your coffee for 1–2 hours of improved focus.
- Avoid using this regularly because it can cause blood sugar crashes and long-term harm to mitochondria.
Smart Use Of Coffee
- Use coffee or caffeine to raise alertness when needed, but prefer coffee without neurotoxins to avoid crashes and jitter.
- Choose lab-tested or cleaner coffee options if regular coffee knocks you out or makes you jittery.
