Info about Mitochondrial Disease
Mitochondrial Disease is a defect in the part of the cell that produces energy. The food we eat converts into many components which make energy for our bodies to run. Its similar to trying to pay all your bills when you don’t have enough money to do so. Energy distribution to the organs and systems of the mito patient experience similar things. Currently there are no effective treatments or cures for mitochondrial diseases.
*Every 15 minutes a child is born that will develop Mito by age 10.
*It is estimated that of the 4 million children born each year in the United States, up to 4000 develop Mito, about the same incidence as cystic fibrosis.
*There are over 40 identified types of Mitochondrial Diseases and believed to be over 100 variants of mitochondrial diseases.
*Because Mitochondrial disease is a defect in the cell, it can go anywhere and cause any symptom. Therefore, it presents in many different forms, there is no certain way a Mito Patient looks, pattern to the disease course or way to know life expectancy.
*In the United States, more than 50 million adults suffer from diseases in which mitochondrial dysfunction is involved, such as cancer, infertility, diabetes, heart diseases, blindness deafness, kidney disease, liver disease, stroke, migraine, and more.
*Mitochondrial dysfunction is also involved in aging and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson and Alzheimer dementia.
