How does the body's biochemistry affect the efficiency of its functions?

Dr. Olga Ivanovna, a specialist in preventive and rehabilitation medicine, explained how the body's biochemistry affects efficiency and productivity.

“The reasons for low energy can be different: poor diet, stress, sedentary lifestyle,” she says in an interview with Gazeta.Ru. “Fatigue often appears due to sleep problems - people suffering from insomnia and insufficient sleep syndrome have decreased productivity and efficiency indicators.”

The specialist indicates that apathy and extreme fatigue are the result of a defect in the mitochondria. Mitochondria are responsible for the functioning and activity of the body and the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphoric acid), which is a source of energy.

“To help the body be healthy and efficient, a person should take alpha-lipoic acid, L-carnitine, magnesium, B vitamins, and omega-3,” she says.

The doctor points out that the severe deficiency in some nutrients requires rapid intervention by the doctor. Based on his recommendations, a person can start taking the necessary nutritional supplements.
