BRAIN — Science

Why Your Body Runs on ATP

Every movement you make — from blinking to sprinting — is powered by a single molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Your body makes it from the food you eat, primarily in your mitochondria. The better you feed your mitochondria (real food, not processed junk), the more ATP you produce, and the better you perform. This is why diet and training are inseparable.
