Mitochondrial Efficiency Neural

Meaning

Mitochondrial Efficiency Neural is a physiological measure that quantifies the effectiveness of mitochondria within neurons and glial cells to convert metabolic substrates, primarily glucose and fatty acids, into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), the primary cellular energy currency, with minimal production of damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS). High efficiency is a key marker of neurological vitality and cognitive resilience, as the brain is one of the most metabolically demanding organs. Hormonal balance is essential for maintaining this efficiency.
