Summary

Age-associated mitochondrial dysfunction can cause fatigue, brain fog, impaired cognition and more serious neurological involvement including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Unfortunately, the internet is flooded with claims about mitochondrial supplements and tests thus making it difficult to know what you should do. Fortunately, one supplement has clinical trial documentation to improve fatigue, the potential to repair mitochondria and help protect against neurodegenerative disease.

Hello, everyone. Welcome to Dr. Rousho Radio. This is Dr. Rousho. And today I'm here with

0:43.4

Dr. John Kaiser, and we are going to be discussing mitochondrial health and mitochondrial dysfunction

0:48.7

a topic I am very curious to dig into. So, John, welcome to the show today.

0:53.8

Thank you, Michael. It's a pleasure

0:55.1

to be here. Can you tell people just in brief your background so they know how you've been

1:00.9

involved with mitochondria and mitochondrial medicine? Yeah, so I think it's an interesting story. Even before

1:07.5

I went to medical school, I was completely enamored by the mitochondria and the way it

1:14.3

functioned to, at that point in time, we thought all it did was make energy, the Krebs cycle

1:20.8

and the electron transport chain. I was just fascinated by the structure and the function of how this part of the cell worked

1:29.3

and how important it was.

1:31.4

So I majored in biochemistry in college, and then I went to medical school.

1:36.6

And completely unrelated to the mitochondria in medical school, I was very frustrated with

1:42.0

This was in the mid-80s.
