Intense exercise causes mitochondrial damage even in elite athletes
Hopefully, this post won’t be interpreted as trying to bash exercise. Its goal is to simply draw…
Damaged mitochondria may cause 90%+ of Parkinson Disease (PD) cases
More evidence that yet another “incurable” condition is little more than energy deficit (due to mitochondrial dysfunction)…
Aging is an energy deficiency problem, taking cardiolipin may reverse it
Yet another study demonstrating that “aging” is nothing but a phenotype characterizing an organism with declining energy…
COVID-19 is an energy deficiency disease
Yet another seemingly non-metabolic disease turns out to be nothing but energy deficiency in disguise. Apparently, the…
Loss of mitochondrial function (OXPHOS) induces de-differentiation (cancer)
The study only focuses on the lymphatic system and its cells, but the principle is general and…
Mitochondrial dysfunction may be the cause of anemia
Despite anemia being a pretty common condition, I still don’t think medicine has a good idea what…
Muscle weakness / wasting linked to poor mitochondrial function
A study that once again illustrates the central principle of bioenergetics – structure and function cannot be…
Vitamin D deficiency impairs muscles by lowering energy production
Perhaps this study below will put some of the arguments against vitamin D supplementation to rest. It…
Metabolic (energy) deficiency may be the cause of Parkinson Disease (PD)
The dogma that PD is just a simple dopamine deficiency manifesting in genetically vulnerable individuals is quickly…
Mitochondrial debris leaking in bloodstream may cause autoimmune disease
This has been a recurring topic in my posts, and I am glad to see that more…
