Lost in a sea of scientific jargon while trying to upgrade your biology? You're not alone.
When I first dove into bioenergetics and metabolic optimization, I felt like I needed a PhD in biochemistry just to understand why my mitochondria weren't cooperating. Terms like "oxidative phosphorylation," "NAD+ precursors," and "metabolic flexibility" were getting thrown around like everyone was supposed to know what they meant.
Here's the thing: the science of cellular energy is game-changing, but the language barrier keeps most people from accessing it. This glossary cuts through the academic noise and gives you plain-English definitions for the terms that actually matter.
What you'll find here:
- The essential vocabulary for understanding how your cells make energy
- Practical context for why each term matters to your performance
- No fluff, no filler—just the concepts you need to optimize your biology
Think of this as your cheat sheet for conversations with longevity researchers, biohackers, and that one friend who won't stop talking about their latest supplement stack. Master these terms, and you'll have the foundation to implement the strategies that can genuinely upgrade your cognitive and physical performance.
