Our ambassador has already shared which type of fat is worth keeping in your kitchen every day. 🫒
Now it’s time to look at the bigger picture: what exactly is a mitochondria-supporting diet, and why is it increasingly discussed in the context of cellular energy and healthy aging? 🤔
This isn’t another restrictive diet or a rigid way of eating.
Instead, it’s an approach to building your daily meals around nutrients that play an important role in healthy energy metabolism.
Mitochondria are structures found in most of our cells. One of their key functions is producing ATP, the primary energy carrier used by the body. They are also involved in numerous metabolic processes, which is why mitochondrial function has become an important area of research into cellular health and aging.
So, what’s worth including in your daily diet? 👇
🥦 High-quality fats, including extra virgin olive oil, as recommended by Magdalena Makarowska.
🫐 Foods rich in bioactive compounds, including polyphenols, such as berries, olive oil, green tea, cocoa and a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.
🥬 Sources of vitamins and minerals involved in energy metabolism, including B vitamins and magnesium.
🥗 Limit highly processed foods and excessive amounts of simple sugars. A varied, well-balanced diet remains the foundation.
Diet comes first. In certain situations, such as increased nutritional needs, nutrient deficiencies or dietary restrictions, appropriately selected supplementation may help complement it.
