SMFA is a white powder that looks like flour or sugar. When ingested, SMFA gets converted into monofluoroacetyl-CoA (MFA-CoA). This looks a lot like acetyl-CoA, an important compound in the Krebs cycle.

Your mitochondrial enzymes are very stupid (sorry) and they can’t tell the difference between your name brand acetyl-CoA and the fugly knock off brand MFA-CoA…. So MFA-CoA gets introduced into the krebs cycle…and the end result is that the whole cycle STOPS and shuts down
