Slow Down Ageing by Taking Better Care of Your Mitochondria

Mitochondrial DNA is defenseless.

It lacks the protection that nuclear DNA enjoys, so it’s extremely important to protect it from damage - once mtDNA is damaged too much, it cannot program its own repair as efficiently.

Mitochondrial heteroplasmy (read “aging”) is accumulation of mutations due to the deficiency in repair mechanisms.

Worship your mitochondria.
