“Both the medical community and the public is becoming increasing interested and focused on: how do we age in the best way possible? … Mitochondria (which are the part of the cell that make energy in what we call ATP) are impacted in almost every disease that causes aging and almost every chronic illness…So when you look at what’s affecting everyone in our population, it’s chronic illness (either we have to prevent it or we have to reverse it) or the changes that accompany midlife and the hormonal milieu — all of those are affected by mitochondria.”
