Failed Medicine - Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Human Disease

More about the book

Mitochondrial dysfunction is linked to various human diseases, including neurodegeneration, cancer, autoimmune disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and diabetes. It can trigger apoptosis, promote oncogenesis through increased glycolysis, and provoke immune reactions that lead to autoimmune diseases. Additionally, it affects glucose metabolism, contributing to diabetes and mental health issues. The book contrasts modern medicine's approach, which often inhibits mitochondrial function, with Ayurvedic medicine, which supports mitochondrial health, highlighting the mitochondria's role in energy metabolism and alternative healing therapies.
