Our genetic code mutates, especially sensitive part of our cell is a little part called mitochondria. Mitochondria take in the nutrients and power the cell, they are our energy makers. They also contain the small amount of their own DNA inherited directly from our mother to protect us from different genetic disorders. Mitochondria help regulate the self-destruction of cells (apoptosis), thus one of the mutation makes our cells live forever instead of dying after 50 divisions (mitosis), causing cancer. \u00a0They are also necessary for the production of substances such as cholesterol and heme (a component of hemoglobin, the molecule that carries oxygen in the blood). Mutations\u00a0develop due to prolonged exposure of Oxidants, so called free radicals, that are by products of cells metabolism. The more processed food we take in more free radicals are released into the cell. Unlike nucleus DNA, mtDNA is more\u00a0susceptible to mutations.\u00a0Over time our bodies are not able to get rid of the piled up \u201cgarbage\u201dand you develop a diseases like cancer,\u00a0Alzheimer, atherosclerosis and many other life altering illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>I found that certain nutrients may help restore mitochondria.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">(ALC)\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">Acetyl-L-carnitine\u00a0\u00a0fed energy-releasing molecules, improving their efficiency and preventing damage<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">(LA)\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">alpha-lipoic acid\u00a0helped mitochondria reduce production of toxins and cellular waste.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Coenzyme Q10 increased the rate of electron transport,\u00a0boosting energy production and protecting the mitochondria from decline.
