Research-Supported Benefits:
Supports Energy Levels. Dysfunctional mitochondria cannot produce energy as effectively. Fats called phosphoglycolipids repair the mitochondrial membrane, reducing free radical damage and optimizing the mitochondria's ability to produce energy. Research shows NT Factor reduces fatigue by 35%. (1)
Supports Mitochondrial Function. Mitochondria Ignite contains “NT Factor,” a proprietary collection of compounds including phosphoglycolipids that support healthy mitochondrial membranes, our body’s main energy hub. It also contains alpha-lipoic acid, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, creatine monohydrate and more to support mitochondrial activity. (2)
Supports Cellular Health. It contains methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), a sulfur-containing compound that suppresses free radicals produced by mitochondria, as well as alpha-ketoglutarate, an antioxidant compound that stimulates ATP production. (3)
Supports Gut Health. NT Factor contains Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus, probiotic bacteria that support a healthy gut microbiome and allow phosphoglycolipids to take hold in the gut. NT Factor also contains food-based prebiotic compounds to encourage the growth and survival of the probiotics, including beetroot fiber, blackstrap molasses, leek stem powder, garlic and spirulina.

- A proprietary nutrient complex called NT Factor® supports energy and mitochondrial function with phosphoglycolipids, probiotic bacteria, prebiotic foods, vitamins, minerals and more.
- Clinical trials have shown that NT Factor® can actually support the repair of damaged cell membranes - in effect reducing the cells' biological age and restoring mitochondrial ability to generate energy.
- The NT Factor formulation is specially designed so that the phosphoglycolipids match the human cell membrane and are not digested but instead are able to get into the wall of the GI tract intact. Once there, they go to work repairing any damage in the cell membrane.
- Phosphoglycolipids have their own energy supply, each containing a battery-like structure with a positive and negative charge. Because of this, when this type of lipid is laid against a cell membrane, it naturally forces itself into the membrane. Therefore, phosphoglycolipids require none of the patient's energy to get into the body—an important feature for individuals who are already severely fatigued.
- NT Factor enables all other nutrients to work better because it repairs the cell membranes. This improves the body's ability to take in nutrition and get rid of waste more effectively.
- In addition to being a rich source of phosphoglycolipids, NT Factor was also formulated to provide both friendly bacteria (Bifido and Lactobacillus bacterium) needed to keep the gastrointestinal tract functioning properly, and the growth media necessary to feed the good bacteria so they can colonize.
When a person experiences chronic fatigue, whether it's due to an illness or aging, the mitochondria are only operating at 40 to 60 percent of capacity. There is not enough energy left to drive all of the important functions needed - which can include thinking, movement, muscular activity and other necessary activities.
Mitochondria are like little batteries within our cells that provide the energy our bodies need. Certain health issues can lead to the mitochondrial membrane being damaged, which causes it to leak. When the mitochondria become leaky, they cannot generate energy because a very important component of that energy-driving system is that the membranes provide insulation for the mitochondria. A good comparison is the insulation surrounding a battery. If you take the insulation off of the battery, it runs down very quickly. The same thing happens with the mitochondria.
Mitochondria are made up of an inner and outer membrane. The inner membrane is where food, water and oxygen are converted to adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which supplies energy to all your cells. It's also where the free radicals that drive aging and illness are produced.
As the phosphoglycolipids in NT Factor are pushed into the mitochondria to repair the membrane, the production of free radicals that damage the membrane is slowed down or stopped. Thus, phosphoglycolipids optimize the mitochondria's ability to produce energy.
Multiple tests done with both moderately and severely fatigued patients have shown that NT Factor can support reduction of fatigue by as much as 45 percent and increases in mitochondrial function of 35 percent. (5-7)

Unique Formulation. ProHealth’s Mitochondrial Ignite with NT Factor® is a unique and proprietary blend of nutrients, fats and compounds that support mitochondrial function to reduce fatigue and support healthy energy levels.
Ingredients Comparable to Human Cell Membranes. The phosphoglycolipids in NT Factor are a unique extract that matches human cell membranes. This is why they are able to push themselves into the cell membranes.
Natural. NT Factor is natural to the human body. Not all natural products are - they may be a natural plant source, for example, but not necessarily natural to the human body. NT Factor is composed only of food and food components.
Unoxidized Lipids. Many food sources and products purchased from health stores contain oxidized lipids, which cannot be used to repair cell membranes. The phosphoglycolipids in NT Factor are unoxidized lipids. Additionally, NT Factor's phosphoglycolipids are protected so they are not oxidized and destroyed by the digestive process.
Supported by Clinical Studies. NT Factor is the only product proven in clinical trials to support the repair of damaged cell membranes. NT Factor is proven in clinical trials to successfully support reduced fatigue. NT Factor has supported benefits in fatigue trials for the large majority of those who take it.
Quality Manufacturing Practices. All of our products are manufactured in an FDA-registered, GMP-certified facility.
Third-Party Tested in the USA. Every batch is third-party tested in US laboratories to ensure the highest quality, purity and potency. Certificates of Analysis are available.
