How chronic stress depletes your mitochondria
Stress isn't just emotional: it's also cellular
Under prolonged stress, the body produces excess hormones such as cortisol and numerous reactive oxygen species (free radicals). This directly affects mitochondrial function.
A vicious energy cycle
- More stress = more free radicals
- More free radicals = alteration of mitochondrial membranes
- Less ATP = less stress resistance
This vicious cycle can lead to physical and mental exhaustion.
Validated techniques to limit the impact of stress
- Coherent breathing
- Slow walking in the middle of nature
- Deep and restful sleep
- Adaptogen support (rhodiola, ashwagandha)
An integrative approach to restore balance
Mitochondrial medicine integrates stress as a central factor in imbalances and proposes biological, nutritional and emotional strategies to regulate it.
