It\u2019s also a root factor that must be addressed in COVID jab injuries, regardless of symptoms or severity<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"bcr_rptStory_cslStory_1\">One of the most foundational lifestyle components that can make or break your mitochondrial health is electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure. To allow your body to heal, you\u2019ll want to minimize EMF exposure as much as possible<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"bcr_rptStory_cslStory_2\">The cristae of the inner membrane of the mitochondria contains a fat called cardiolipin, the function of which is dependent on the type of fat you get from your diet. Cardiolipin is important because, if cardiolipin is damaged, mitochondrial energy production will be impaired. The most damaging fat is omega-6 linoleic acid, found in seed oils<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"bcr_rptStory_cslStory_3\">Another major culprit that destroys mitochondrial function is excess iron, and almost everyone has too much iron. Copper is also important for energy metabolism, detoxification and mitochondrial function, and copper deficiency is common. Copper is also required for proper iron recycling, and low ferritin is typically a sign of copper insufficiency<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"bcr_rptStory_cslStory_4\">Other strategies reviewed include sun exposure and near-infrared light therapy, time-restricted eating, NAD+ optimizers and methylene blue, which can be a valuable rescue remedy<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/articles.mercola.com\/sites\/articles\/archive\/2023\/02\/26\/optimize-mitochondrial-health-long-covid.aspx\">https:\/\/articles.mercola.com\/sites\/articles\/archive\/2023\/02\/26\/optimize-mitochondrial-health-long-covid.aspx<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mitochondrial dysfunction is at the root of most all chronic diseases, and it also plays a crucial role in conditions such as long COVID, which is becoming quite common.
