Andrey Nikolaevich Zolotarev: mitochondria, just like the entire body, really love happiness hormones
According to Andrey Nikolaevich, when a person is calm and satisfied, and has the opportunity to earn money, it triggers the release of happiness hormones. Which, by the way, our mitochondria absolutely love. Simple and effective tips for maintaining youth, strength, and energy — in this interview with our expert.

Without energy, your value is no more than that of a hammer
Andrey Nikolaevich has always realized the importance of mitochondria for the human body. What he felt intuitively was proven with the advent of new cell research technologies.
“That was when I felt the true maximum value of mitochondria. Figuratively speaking: no matter how super-modern or innovative a computer you are, if you don't have electrical energy, you stop being a cool computer, and your value becomes no more than that of a hammer. It's the same in our body: our lifestyle directly depends on the ability to receive enough electrical current on time. And here, it is the mitochondria that are the key element.”
Let me explain: if your body has too few mitochondria, or if they are of an advanced age, or if they are not fully functional, or if they have mutations, then you won't get the maximum efficiency of electrical charge for the optimal functioning of the cell in which those mitochondria exist. This cell, together with its neighboring cells, forms tissues. Accordingly, these tissues will not be as efficient as possible, and all the systems and organs that consist of these tissues will also not
be able to have maximum performance efficiency.

Tested the effectiveness on himself
Andrey Nikolaevich has been diving deeper into the study of mitochondrial dysfunction, mitochondrial health, and products to support it since 2022.
“For about six months, I studied VILAVI products, and then I started using them for myself, my family, and my patients. In the end, I became 100% convinced of the product's effectiveness and value. My colleagues and I noticed that the dynamics of solving clinical tasks increased several times over. By 'several times,' I mean not by 10-15%, but by 100% or more. Besides everything else, I felt the effectiveness of these components firsthand. Combined with lifestyle adjustments, mitochondrial health products show truly colossal results.”

You can influence mitochondrial health
From the perspective of evidence-based medicine, a person can influence mitochondrial health, because mitochondria are classified as a genus of bacteria, meaning they are separate living organisms.
– The viability and performance of any living organism depend both on the smallest components, such as a deficiency or sufficiency of micro and macronutrients, and on the effects of antioxidants. It is antioxidants that make it possible to improve the quality and performance of organisms, and most importantly — to speed up the processes occurring per minute of time.
Therefore, when we talk about key products that can change the entire biochemistry of mitochondrial performance, we are talking exactly about the products presented at VILAVI. They use components that, on one hand, significantly impact mitochondrial health, and on the other, are the very things most lacking in our daily food.

When you are happy, calm, and earning money
Andrey Nikolaevich considers maintaining psycho-emotional health to be a key point in supporting mitochondrial health within the MITO-approach.
– It directly depends on and correlates with our wealth. After all, when a person is calm and satisfied, plus has the opportunity to earn money, happiness hormones kick in. I assure you, mitochondria, just like your entire body, really love happiness hormones. And the higher the wealth, the more stable your psycho-emotional state will be, of course. But! It is very important to understand that a positive psycho-emotional state is also linked to achievements and victories. That is, what matters is not some short-term success or finding a windfall, but setting goals and gaining the ability to achieve them, obtaining final victories and positive results.

Sports and “treats” for mitochondria
The cornerstones of mitochondrial health are an active lifestyle and nutrition, Andrey Nikolaevich is convinced.
– Without incorporating physical activity, you won't get the maximum effect you're expecting. And I'll say it again about nutrition. It should be rich, rational, and most importantly, very well-balanced. This last point is quite difficult to achieve by relying solely on food products. Firstly, they aren't always of excellent quality, the right degree of ripeness, freshness, etc. Secondly, it can be physically difficult for a modern person to create a diverse, high-quality food basket. Often there isn't enough time for this, or we simply aren't able to eat enough food to get the full variety of components necessary for health from it. And this is where micro and macronutrients, various vitamin and mineral complexes, come to the rescue. After all, mitochondria, like many other elements of our cells, really love "treats."

“My mitochondria have appreciated them”
Andrey Nikolaevich recommends treating your mitochondria to special, key components that play a vital role for them. This ensures they are as happy as you are and strive to deliver their maximum efficiency.
– I consider humic mixtures, the patented SibXP®Complex, and polyprenols to be the basic set for maintaining mitochondrial health. You will find this valuable set in VILAVI products. My mitochondria have already fully appreciated them, and I am extremely pleased with the effect!
