********CRITIQUES, RULES, AND NOTES********

Be aware of the following rules before posting comments:
- Please do not post summaries of the video in the comments - it damages retention on the video and YouTube is less likely to promote it (these videos cost me a lot of money to produce).

Critiques of my work are welcome! Please be aware of the following notes & rules before submitting critique:

Be mindful that this content is not all encompassing on the subject at hand and is self-limited for brevity to reach a wider audience. Also, be aware that I receive hundreds of YouTube comments per day, so the only way your critique can be considered is if you follow the steps outlined below. Finally, YouTube auto-deletes links, so I do not see most comments with links attached.

RULES:
If your comment is rude, you will be banned.
If your comment is not about the studies/topics at hand (i.e. extending to other outcomes not discussed) or offers critique with no scientific basis, it is unlikely to receive a response.

If you can follow these rules, I will try to address your critique and if there is merit, I will add an AMENDMENT to the content in question and pin it so everyone can see it (thank you!).

Episode description

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Boost ergothioneine levels in muscle mitochondria through exercise

A new, unpublished study shows that exercise increases concentrations of the amino acid ergothioneine within muscle mitochondria.

#exercise

#mitochondria

Boost ergothioneine function through exercise

Exercise not only increases ergothioneine levels but also increases the expression of the MPST enzyme that ergothioneine requires to function.

#enzyme

#exercise

Boost ergothioneine levels through endurance and resistance training

Data from previous human studies confirms that both endurance and resistance training increase the levels of ergothioneine found in the blood.

#exercise

#metabolism

Boost physical performance by supplementing ergothioneine

In a mouse study, supplementing the diet with ergothioneine improved physical performance by almost 30% without any additional exercise.

#supplement

Ensure MPST enzyme for ergothioneine's mitochondrial benefits

The mitochondrial benefits of ergothioneine are dependent on an enzyme called MPST, as inhibiting this enzyme negates ergothioneine's positive effects.

#enzyme

#mitochondria

Boost mitochondrial function with ergothioneine supplementation

When added directly to muscle cells in a lab, ergothioneine was shown to increase oxygen consumption, which is a direct proxy for improved mitochondrial function.
