Inhibiting oxidative metabolism can cause inflammation, aggressive cancer
Despite medicine’s rabid defense of the “cancerous mutation” origin theory of cancer, it looks like evidence for…
Parkinson Disease (PD) akin to infectious disease – driven by endotoxin, damaged mitochondria
Yet another study demonstrating that there is no need for genes or any other hereditary mechanism to…
Restoring mitochondrial function reverses aging in blood/immune cells
The number of studies focusing on bioenergetics as a reliable method for delaying (or even reversing) aging…
Stress/Injury (mitochondrial dysfunction) sufficient to cause de-differentiation, even cancer
One of the most pernicious myths in medicine is the “irreversibility” of several cellular processes related to…
Fasting/exercise/lowcarb/keto may promote cancer (melanoma) metastasis
Quite the title for this post, but I think the evidence from the study below is clear….
Metabolic rate may determine personality type and disease risk
Very interesting study that links mitochondrial density/number (and as such, the metabolic rate) with personality types. Namely,…
Restoring mitochondrial function may be sufficient to reverse aging
The findings of the study may not sound very novel to my readers, however please keep in…
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a major cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD)
At a first glance, mitochondrial dysfunction (a “functional” problem) has little in common with the build-up of…
Neuron/brain growth depends on metabolism (OXPHOS)
As many of my readers know, the mainstream medical dogma is that the number of neurons in…
Major depression likely driven by mitochondrial deterioration/dysfunction
This the latest study demonstrating that not only are various chronic diseases and aging essentially the same…
