Mitochondria: The Powerhouse of Brain and Aging

This chapter explores the crucial role of mitochondria in human evolution and their adaptations related to food availability and psychological states during time-restricted feeding. It highlights the Mitochondrial Health Index (MHI) in assessing energy production capacity and discusses the dynamic interplay between mitochondria and brain function, especially under varying metabolic demands. Additionally, it examines how mitochondrial health influences aging trajectories, linking metabolic rates, longevity, and the morphology of neurons and their energy optimization strategies.
