Medication 

These are all they types of medication I take which has helped me throughout the years which i will list below. I believe that a combination of the below have helped me to relieve symptoms I've been facing since being diagnosed with mitochondrial disease. I take one of each of these every day. 

Bisoprolol 

​Is a class of medication called 'Beta blockers'. It works by relaxing the blood vessels and slowing the heart rate to help improve and decrease blood the pressures. 

​

Lisinopril 

This medication is used along side Bisoprolol to help treat my heart problem. They work well together. I take 2.5mg Lisinopril every day to help to try and stabilize and keep my heart as strong as possible. 

Co Enzyme Q10

​​Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a tablets that helps convert food into energy. CoQ10 is found in almost every cell in the body, and it is a powerful antioxidant. I take two of these a day (total of 200mg). From google it states "CoQ10 is a natural antioxidant present in mitochondrial membranes that helps protect cells from oxidative stress-induced damage. In their review, the authors highlight studies in which supplementation with CoQ10 has led to symptomatic relief of fatigue and pain in individuals with fibromyalgia."​​

​​

Niacinamide 

Niacinamide a form of vitamin B3 (niacin).I take one of these a day.  There are eight types of B Vitamins and niacinamide is one of them. Vitamin B3 is essential to maintain good body health. taking one of these a day helps Vitamin B3 helps converts the foods we eat into energy. ​​​​

Omega 3 fish oil triple strength tablets 

Fish oil is an excellent source of omega-3, which is good for the heart and the brain. However, getting your omega-3s from fish is healthier. If you don’t eat fish, fish oil supplements are a good alternative (330mg)

 Urolithin A Supplement 

​ The reason I take Urolithin A ia because Urolithin A (UA) is a natural compound that can improve mitochondrial health and function, and may help with a number of conditions such as ​

Mitochondrial health 

UA can improve mitochondrial health in humans through regular oral consumption. It can also increase mitochondrial gene expression in older humans. ​

Muscle health

UA can improve muscle function and strength in older animals and humans. It can also increase aerobic endurance in young rats. 

Osteoarthritis (OA)

• UA can reduce cartilage degeneration and alleviate pain in OA. It can also decrease synovitis, an inflammation of the synovial membrane that is a component of OA pathology. 

• Auditory cell senescence

• UA can attenuate auditory cell senescence by activating mitophagy. 

• UA is a gut microbiome-derived food metabolite that stimulates mitophagy, which is the process of removing old mitochondria that contribute to cellular dysfunction. 

 I take 2 x Urolithin A Supplement is a tablet which I have recently started taking to help me (total 2000mg)
