Mitochondrial Power Generation

Meaning

Mitochondrial Power Generation is the fundamental cellular process by which mitochondria, the cell’s primary energy organelles, convert nutrient-derived substrates into the universal energy currency, Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). This process, also known as oxidative phosphorylation, is the core engine of physiological vitality, determining the functional capacity of virtually all tissues, especially high-demand organs like the brain, heart, and skeletal muscle. Optimal generation is a prerequisite for metabolic health and longevity.
