Two‑step protocol for mitochondrial rehabilitation

Dr. Robert Groysman returns to discuss the mechanisms behind Long Covid, focusing on mitochondrial dysfunction and its role in symptoms like fatigue and brain fog.

• Dr. Groysman identifies six major mechanisms in Long Covid: dysautonomia, mitochondrial dysfunction, gut dysbiosis, endothelial dysfunction, mast cell activation syndrome, and hormone imbalance
• Most Long Covid patients experience multiple mechanisms simultaneously, requiring comprehensive treatment
• Mitochondria are cellular organelles responsible for energy production, with different cell types having varying densities based on energy needs
• COVID-19 not only damages mitochondria but uniquely impairs the body's ability to repair and replace them
• Post-exertional malaise occurs when damaged mitochondria burst during overexertion, triggering inflammatory processes
• Recovery requires gentle, patient approaches rather than aggressive interventions that can cause setbacks
• Dr. Groysman's two-step protocol involves daily antioxidant support followed by seven days per month of carefully managed mitophagy
• Complete recovery typically takes 3-12 months and cannot be rushed without risking relapses
• Dysautonomia often needs treatment before other mechanisms can be successfully addressed
• Pacing is critical to avoid crashes that cause additional mitochondrial damage
