Mitochondria Dysfunction and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Ross, Stephanie Maxine·Holistic nursing practice·2024
This review examines how problems with mitochondria—the energy-producing parts of our cells—might contribute to ME/CFS. The study explores the theory that when mitochondria don't work properly, cells can't produce enough energy, which could explain the severe fatigue and exhaustion that ME/CFS patients experience. Understanding this connection may help researchers develop better treatments aimed at restoring cellular energy production.
