Medication-induced mitochondrial damage and disease – Source: Molecular Nutrition and Food Research, July 2008
Dysfunctional mitochondria (the cells’ energy-generators) play a role in migraine, nerve pain, ME/CFS, FM, and many more illnesses, and antioxidant therapies hold promise. This article explains how the mitochondria function, and how many common types of medications are known to damage them. [Source: Molecular Nutrition and Food Research, July 2008] |
