SS-31, Elamipretide · What it helps
Muscle energy and fatigue
Weak mitochondria mean weak, tired muscles. In Barth syndrome, people on daily elamipretide for over three years walked about 96 metres farther in six minutes, felt less fatigue and their hearts pumped better. Cardiolipin markers moved toward normal. It is the most direct fix for muscle energy failure.
