2023
Abstract
Dr Ruscio chats to Ari Whitten to unpack mitochondrial health, introducing the concept that mitochondria are not just energy producers but are also involved in cellular defence, protecting the body by dialling down energy production if they feel threatened. Subsequently, intervening upstream with implementation of diet and lifestyle changes may help shut off this defence response so that mitochondria can focus on energy production. They review the myriad of connections between nutrition, lifestyle factors and mitochondrial function, including body composition/fat, gut health, blood sugar regulation, and sleep (particularly circadian rhythm and melatonin). Mitochondrial testing and supplementation are discussed, as well as fasting to support mitochondrial health, and ways to potentially mitigate mitochondrial loss with ageing via hormetic stress.
