The Impact of Inefficient Mitochondria on Multiple Sclerosis

Inefficient mitochondria in multiple sclerosis can lead to bioenergetic problems in the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves, accelerating the autoimmune process. This inefficiency can increase the risk of optic neuritis and macular degeneration, a leading cause of early blindness in the United States. Symptoms like fatigue and brain fog in MS are often indicators of poor mitochondrial function.
