Mitochondria: The Energy Powerhouses of our Cells, Part 1

Today’s episode is a deep-dive on the mitochondria with a focus on the importance of free radical modification of cellular membranes. Membranes are the key to cellular aging. As we get older, the membranes in our cells accumulate damage caused by oxidative stress and other outside forces that result in the loss of mitochondrial function that can produce disease states, subjective fatigue, and have a direct bearing on aging. One of the nine pillars of aging is the deterioration of the mitochondria, the energy powerhouses of our cells. John Casey, co-founder and CEO of Nutritional Therapeutics, details how NTFactor® repairs membrane damage by replacing damaged, oxidized phospholipids with healthy, unoxidized phospholipids and returns cellular membranes to healthy function, reducing fatigue, repairing cellular damage, and reversing the effects of aging.
