What Is Mitochondria and How to Optimize It

What is Mitochondria and how to optimize it

The mitochondria are power plants within the cells that turn your food and oxygen into energy. Think of them as energy factories – when a factory slows down its production or there aren’t enough materials, you’ll get less production from the factory. If your mitochondria aren’t working properly, you’re going to get less from your body and brain, and you’re going to feel more tired and run down throughout the day. Research shows that mitochondria play a role in a lot of the age-related diseases, like heart disease, diabetes, and neurogenerative diseases.

Here are 5 simple steps that can help optimize your mitochondria:

  1. Eliminate processed foods and refined sugars.
  2. Eat healthy fats like walnuts, olive oil, avocado, coconut oil, and MCT oil.
  3. Eat the rainbow. Colorful fruits and vegetables have phytonutrients that nourish your mitochondria.
  4. Eat sulfur-rich vegetables like cauliflower and cabbage which produce glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that’s good for the mitochondria.
  5. Exercise especially HIIT and strength training has been shown to increase the number of mitochondria.
  6. Get good quality sleep. Studies show that poor sleep and sleep disorders play a key role in mitochondrial dysfunction.

Versión En Español

Las mitocondrias son plantas de energía dentro de las células que convierten su comida y oxígeno en energía. Piense en ellas como fábricas de energía: cuando una fábrica disminuye su producción o no hay suficientes materiales, obtendrá menos producción de la fábrica. Si sus mitocondrias no funcionan correctamente, obtendrá menos energia de su cuerpo y cerebro, y se sentirá más cansado y agotado durante todo el día. Las investigaciónes muestran que las mitocondrias juegan un papel significativo en muchas enfermedades relacionadas con la edad, como enfermedades cardíacas, diabetes y enfermedades neurogenerativas.

Aquí hay 5 pasos que pueden ayudar a optimizar sus mitocondrias:

  1. Eliminar alimentos procesados y azúcares refinadas.
  2. Ingiera grasas saludables como nueces, aceite de oliva, aceite de coco y aceite MCT.
  3. Planifica una comida colorida. Las frutas y verduras coloridas tienen fitonutrientes que nutren sus mitocondrias.
  4. Ingiera vegetales ricos en azufre como la coliflor y la col que producen glutatión, un poderoso antioxidante que es bueno para las mitocondrias.
  5. El ejercicio, especialmente el HIIT y el entrenamiento de pesas, han demostrado aumentar el número de mitocondrias.
  6. Duerma bien. Los estudios demuestran que el mal sueño juega un papel clave en la disfunción mitocondrial.
