Abstract: The present invention relates generally to therapeutic compositions comprising one or more redox compounds. The therapeutic compositions of the present invention are useful in enhancing cellular ATP production thereby ameliorating the effects of reduced bioenergy capacity such as occurring during aging, systemic or vascular disease or in conjunction with chemical therapy. The present invention therefore contemplates a method for enhancing cellular ATP production in an animal, said method comprising administering to said animal, an effective amount of a redox compound for a time and under conditions sufficient to increase or otherwise elevate the activity and/or operation of a cellular oxidoreductase system in cells of said animal.
