Aliquot #114: Supplements & Diet Strategies to Boost Mitochondrial Function

Mitochondria are best known for their energy-producing roles, but they also help regulate cellular metabolism, signaling, and apoptosis (programmed cell death). As a result, mitochondrial health is intrinsically linked to overall health. Mitochondrial biogenesis is the process by which new mitochondria are formed within cells, ensuring that cells maintain an adequate number of mitochondria to meet their energy demands. As we age, mitochondrial biogenesis tends to decline, but lifestyle factors can counter some of these declines.
