Mitochondria Why Mitochondria Matter More Than You Think Mitochondria are often referred to as the “powerhouses” of the cell—but clinically, they are far more than that. They regulate energy production, metabolic flexibility, inflammation, and even hormonal balance. When mitochondrial function declines, we see fatigue, weight gain, poor recovery, and increased risk of chronic disease. What’s fascinating is that a diverse group of compounds—ranging from foods like matcha and n

The Wolverine Stack By Dr D Michael Elliott MSc. D.C. CFMP What Is the “Wolverine Stack”? The so-called “Wolverine Stack”  refers to combining BPC-157  and TB-500 , two peptides commonly discussed for their potential roles in tissue repair, recovery, and regeneration. BPC-157  → Primarily supports local tissue healing (tendons, ligaments, gut lining) TB-500  → Acts more systemically, supporting cell migration, angiogenesis, and repair signalling Together, they are proposed to

Subcutaneous injections of BCP-157 By Dr D Michael Elliott MSc. D.C. CFMP What is BPC-157? BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide derived from proteins naturally found in the stomach. It has gained increasing attention for its potential role in accelerating tissue repair, supporting gut integrity, and modulating inflammation. While much of the research is still preclinical, the mechanistic pathways are highly relevant to functional medicine—particularly

GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper peptide)  is a naturally occurring peptide that binds copper and plays a critical role in: Tissue repair and regeneration Collagen and elastin synthesis Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity Hair and skin rejuvenation Potential mitochondrial and gene-regulating effects It has gained popularity in both clinical regenerative medicine and biohacking circles, but like any biologically active compound, it should be used strategically
