Martin Picard’s Mitochondrial Theory of Mind…
https://www.quantamagazine.org/martin-picards-mitochondrial-theory-of-mind-20260717/
"Picard agreed that some of the lab’s hypotheses at first strike some academic researchers as sounding a little 'woo.' But science has always been driven by bold, challenging ideas that are then rigorously tested and refined. As Picard put it, 'There’s a lot of things that used to be considered ‘woo’ until we understood them'." #mitochondria

TITLE: Mediterranean diet may activate tiny proteins that protect the heart and brain

URL: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/07/260716023605.htm

The Mediterranean diet may influence aging through tiny proteins produced inside the cell’s mitochondria. Older adults who followed the diet most closely had higher levels of humanin and SHMOOSE, which have been linked to heart and brain protection. Olive oil, fish, legumes, and fewer refined carbohydrates appeared especially important. The findings could eventually help scientists develop more personalized nutrition plans for healthy aging.

A presentation at this month's Society for Experimental Biology Conference showed that birds can maintain high energy expenditures by using lactate, normally a waste product, to rapidly restore hemoglobin's function. This takes place in mitochondria of red blood cells--a feature that mammalian cells lack.
