Mitochondrial dysfunction

Mitochondrial Dysfunction & Energy Decline: The Hidden Link 🌱 At resTOR Longevity, we understand the key role mitochondria play in powering every cell in your body. When these “powerhouses” become less efficient, it can lead to energy decline, fatigue, and even contribute to age-related health issues. 🔬 Our genetics-focused approach allows us to identify the root cause of mitochondrial dysfunction, providing you with a personalized wellness plan designed to boost cellular energy…

Mitochondrial diseases are a varied group of disorders characterized by impaired energy production. The symptoms of mitochondrial disease can arise in any organ at any age. Some symptoms are hallmarks of mitochondrial disease and are called “red flag” symptoms. Neurologic Cerebral stroke-like lesions in a nonvascular pattern (brain lesions that do not appear like a

Mitochondria are the power stations of the body. Present in just about every type of human cell, including bone, their optimal performance is linked to overall health and longevity. Not … Continue Reading →

Mitochondria are among the first parts of the cell to become dysfunctional when they are deprived of oxygen-rich blood, are exposed to toxins, or are deprived of vital nutrients. Mitochondria in decline force the cells into survival mode, switching to emergency energy production. When the mitochondria become unable to adequately perform their functions, cells either...

Michael Maes and his colleagues have a long history of delving into immune system and mitochondrial abnormalities, not just in ME/CFS but in a number of diseases. In this comprehensive article, they support the hypothesis that inflammation and subsequent mitochondrial disruption are features shared by several autoimmune diseases and neuroimmune disorders as well as ME/CFS. The article below, which is fully available under a Creative Commons License, is the most comprehensive cross-illness…
