INSIGHT

Mitochondria Drive Egg Quality

  • Mitochondrial health is the foundation of egg quality because mitochondria supply the energy eggs need to become healthy embryos.
  • NAD levels decline with age and this decline drives mitochondrial dysfunction that raises risk of genetically abnormal embryos.
ADVICE

Prioritize Lifestyle First

  • Sleep at least seven hours, move regularly, and reduce stress to support mitochondrial and egg health.
  • Lifestyle habits amplify or undermine any supplement strategy for fertility and longevity.
INSIGHT

Male Health Equals Embryo Health

  • Embryo health depends on both egg and sperm since an embryo is the product of two gametes.
  • Male mitochondrial and NAD health matter equally for conception and embryo quality.
