One of the most strategic ways to improve energy, strength, stamina, and longevity is by enhancing mitochondrial function. Mitochondria, found in plants, animals, and fungal cells, are essential organelles that act as cellular power plants, providing energy for various bodily functions.

BRMI Staff A Deep Exploration of a Tree That Has Quietly Healed Women for Over 3,000 Years Across the tropical forests of India and Sri Lanka, there grows a tree whose beauty is so striking—and whose medicinal reputation is so enduring—that ancient poets spoke of it with the same reverence reserved for deities.
