Lose the Dead Weight: Mitophagy and Mitochondrial Cleanup
Dragging through your days? Dead mitochondria could be the cause. Mitophagy is your body’s natural process to lose the dead weight, recycle broken mitochondria, and build fresh ones. Discover how fasting, sleep, exercise, and key nutrients trigger repair for more energy and focus.
The Dead Weight You Feel Every Day
You feel it when you carry dead weight. The sluggish mornings. The brain fog that never clears. The workouts that drain instead of energize.
The same thing happens inside your cells. Old, broken mitochondria hang around too long. Instead of giving you energy, they waste oxygen and pump out toxic exhaust.
Your body has a solution. It is called mitophagy. This is the process of firing the dead weight. Broken mitochondria get dismantled, recycled, and replaced with fresh, efficient ones.
When mitophagy works, your cells stay sharp and resilient. When it fails, you age faster, recover slower, and feel like you are dragging yourself through life.
The good news? You can train your body to kick mitophagy into gear. And when you do, energy, focus, and healing all come rushing back.
