An estimated 1 in 4,000 people worldwide have a #mitochondrialdisease (mito), which refers to a group of disorders that result when #mitochondria cannot produce enough energy or an individual doesn’t have enough healthy mitochondria in their bodies. #MitoFacts

Also known as Glycogen Storage Disease Type 5, #McArdle disease is a rare metabolic condition. It results from DNA mutations that affect your body’s ability to provide muscles with the energy they need to function. Learn more here: https://t.co/Uq8ewud5kp #MitoFacts

This #WorldMitoWeek (@MitoAware), let’s spread awareness of #mitochondrialdisease!💚 Did you know that there are two main types of tests used to diagnose a mitochondrial disorder? These tests are genome sequencing and/or muscle biopsy. #MitoFact #MitoFacts #mito

Dr. Mark Tarnopolsky recommends consuming 20g of #protein within 30 mins of completing exercise. The quality of protein matters. The best sources of protein for #mito patients are eggs, milk, fish, and meat. If you’re using powdered protein, whey protein is best. #MitoFacts

Did you know that #mitochondrialdysfunction has been linked to everything from Alzheimer’s, muscular dystrophy and ALS to diabetes and cancer? This is why we’re so passionate about promoting education and awareness, and funding research into mitochondrial health.💚 #MitoFacts

Did you know that every 30 minutes, a child is born who will develop a mitochondrial disease by age 10? That’s 48 babies per day, or over 17,000 young lives every year! All around the world, people are being affected by mitochondrial diseases. #MitoFacts

Mitochondrial dysfunction is more common than you might imagine. Did you know that 1 in 200 individuals harbour a mitochondrial mutation? These inherited changes to our DNA can cause problems with growth, development, and the functioning of the body’s systems. #MitoFacts

It’s estimated that 5.5 million Canadian adults suffer from #mitochondrialdisease. These include ALS, Alzheimer’s autism, infertility and chronic fatigue. This World Mitochondrial Disease Week (@MitoAware), we embrace the importance of sharing #MitoFacts.
