The Fundamentals On Mitochondrial Vitamins

By Tracie Knight


Health global recent research demonstrated a vast 60% of adult and children who suffers from deficiency diseases. The focus on mitochondrial vitamins touches so much on vitamin D. The patients were diagnosed with problems on muscle and bone fatigue and rickets. This essential blood nutrient is derived from sun energy and other food such as fish. The mitochondrial has vitamin C and D.

The importance of mitochondrial is that it gives the cell energy to enhance day to day activities of man. Some scientist sometimes refers it to as the battery cells. The deficiency of this essential nutrient, leads to formation of constant muscle fatigue and rickets in humans. This is because of functioning of mitochondria, depends on the oxygen and glucose to provide energy that aid in all the functioning activities of the cell.

Adenosine Triphosphate is a form of energy that exists in cell organelle. The hormone phosphocreatine aids in production of Adenosine Triphosphate in muscles. Mitochondrion helps in rejuvenation of phosphocreatine as the muscles contract. Low levels affect the functioning and production of this important nutrient.

Recently, research was carried out on emerging health problems that is in line with this nutrient. A test was carried out on the affected patients with the provision of oral dosage of nutrients rich supplements at the length of 10-12 weeks. A decrease in recovery time and functioning of the organelle was noted. Phosphocreatine levels recovery was also noted to have improved.

Vitamin C helps to improve immune system and prevents inflammation and formation of scurvy. Its deficiency causes problems such as gum disease and hair loss. On relation of this important nutrient with cell organelle, it was recently identified in GLUT10, a glucose transporter that transported oxidized vitamin C. This glucose helps in protection of cell organelle against oxidative stress.

Its detection to its existence on unit organelle is being used to understand on inherited causes of arterial disorder tortousity disease of the connective tissues. Oxidative stress is due to Cell imbalances of reactive chemical molecules, this unevenness hold the capacity of cell organelle to detoxicate it and fix dilapidate tissues and on reactive oxygen species.

Predictions of mitochondria being the production site of reactive oxygen species is by most scientists. They believe that it also helps in recycling of dehydroascorbic acid from its activity. Correlation on molecular means, that are based on dehydroascorbic acid is still to be unraveled. However, it has been noted that cases of arterial tortousity syndrome is due to abnormal functioning of GLUT10. This can also be applied in understanding the relation of type 2 diabetes and GLUT10 as a corroboration of ROS and DHA.

Taking a well-balanced diet rich in the nutrients essential for the body is of much benefit. This is with the reason that you will be able to prevent health related diseases that results from the deficiency of important nutrients in the body. One should consider intake of vast varieties of vegetables and fruits with reference to advice from your doctor.
