Why Mitochondria Prefer Sugar Under Stress (And Fat Under Safety Is a Myth)

Thiamine and CO2 Production: The Gatekeeper of Glucose Oxidation
When people think about energy production, they often focus on calories. At the center of this conversion is a process that is often overlooked: oxidative metabolism. This is the pathway where glucose is fully broken down in the mitochondria to produce ATP, carbon dioxide, and water.
The Liver as Your Metabolic Battery: How Glycogen Storage Powers Hormones, Mood, and Stress Resilience
Glycogen, stored primarily in the liver, acts as a metabolic buffer. It stabilizes blood sugar, suppresses stress hormones, and allows the body to maintain a steady internal environment even when external inputs fluctuate.
Histamine as a Metabolic Stress Signal: Why It Rises When Energy Is Low
