Understanding the Cell Danger Response

The cell danger response (CDR) is an essential framework for understanding how the body reacts to stress, injury, and infection. Mitochondria play a crucial role in this response by sensing changes in energy levels and orchestrating the body's defensive measures. Rather than merely being energy producers, mitochondria are seen as central to orchestrating the immune response, signaling when the body is under threat. This process can be influenced by various factors, including emotional stress, physical injuries, and environmental toxins, all of which can affect the body's ability to heal.
