In this short video, McCall McPherson explains how mitochondria generate cellular energy (ATP) from food and fat, emphasizing that mitochondria have their own DNA inherited exclusively from the mother. He notes that inherited mitochondrial DNA can be flawed, leading to reduced ATP production—citing his own test showing only about 30% of normal ATP output. McPherson links declining mitochondrial efficiency to aging and introduces MitoSol, a supplement he claims provides nutrients that help the body produce energy more efficiently without the stimulating effects of caffeine or adrenal extracts. He describes MitoSol as a non‑stimulant, daily regimen that has dramatically improved his energy levels, and he states he will take it forever.

Mitosol. So our mitochondria, if you guys remember from biology class so many years ago, they take food and stored fat and they create energy from it. They're the powerhouse of the cell. Our currency of energy on a cellular level runs on what's called ATP, and that usually is used and made in every biochemical reaction in our system. And mitochondria— fascinating little tidbit here— Mitochondria have their own DNA within our DNA, so they are not actually blended between our parents. They are inherited directly from our mother. And so mitochondrial DNA is separate and passed down, and you can inherit flawed DNA from your mother that for every food particle, instead of making, I don't remember the exact number, 34 ATPs, maybe you make 20 ATPs or 10 ATPs. So your system is running at a deficit. It is thought that we all come from 8 original women. Because we all are descendants of eight lineages of mitochondria. So fascinating. I'll give myself as an example for genetically inheriting poor mitochondrial function. I've tested my mitochondrial DNA, and they function at about a 30% level, meaning they produce 30% of the ATP that I am supposed to produce compared to other people who produce 100%, right? So my mitochondrial DNA is poor process with our regular DNA. It is also the aging process with our mitochondrial DNA. So as we age again, we become inefficient. We don't. Create enough ATP, and what mitosol does is it's different than adrenal in that it's not exogenous energy. It's not caffeine. It's not glandular cow adrenal gland. All mitosol does is it gives us these little nutrients to help us more efficiently create energy of our own. It doesn't really leave people feeling stimulated, jittery, anxious. Simply allows your body to make energy more efficiently. This is something that. I take every single day of my life. I will take MitoSol every day of my life forever because it has absolutely changed my life.
