The podcast episodes discuss the critical role of mitochondria in various aspects of health, including strength training, mental health, and energy production.
Mitochondria are the organelles within cells that are responsible for generating the majority of the cell's energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to a wide range of health issues, from metabolic disorders to neurological conditions.
The episodes highlight how factors such as diet, exercise, and stress can impact mitochondrial function, and how targeted interventions can help support mitochondrial health and overall well-being.
