The thyroid gland plays a very important role in mitochondrial activity and Iodine levels have a direct correlation between hyperthyroidism which may lead to weight gain due to lack of mitochondrial production.
- Intake of sea vegetables is a good source of Iodine to help regulate this problem.
Decreased levels of ATP is also affected by oxidative damage to mitochondrion which causes damage to the respiratory chain and thus effective glucose / fatty acid metabolism.
- Intake of antioxidants like green tea and coffeeberry forte can reduce oxidative damage.
- Intake of alpha lipiotic acid also improves mitochondrial health, this comes from olive oil.
Olive Oil abstracted from Olea Europaea: Contains chemical hydroxytyrosol which is a strong antioxidant and has anti-cancer properties. More specifically, it had P-glycoprotein modulating activity which overall produces a reduction in oxidative stress on the mitochondrion. It is also proven to alter lipid profiles where there is better cholesterol levels which prevent atherocelerosis. Likewise, it reduces hypertension and improves diabetes (insulin resistance).
Proven to improve production of Coenzyme Q which is in the respiratory pathway in mitochondrion is a sign of protection as antioxidant.
