Mitochondria and nutrition: what to put on your plate?
Are you what your mitochondria metabolize
Mitochondria transform nutrients into energy. Appropriate nutrition provides them with the cofactors and fuels they need to function optimally.
The star nutrients of cellular energy
- Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5 : involved in the respiratory chain
- Magnesium : an essential cofactor for ATP
- Iron, copper, zinc : for mitochondrial enzymes
- Coenzyme Q10 : to transport electrons
Foods to choose for your mitochondria
- Small fatty fish (sardines, mackerel)
- Leafy green vegetables
- Organic eggs
- Raw cacao
- Germinated seeds
Foods to limit
- Fast sugars (impact glycolysis and increase AGEs)
- Oxidized vegetable oils
- Endocrine additives and disruptors
Targeted nutrition for sustainable health
Beyond calories, it's nutritional density that counts. A rich, varied and organic diet sustainably supports your mitochondrial capital.
