When we think of mitochondria, we often think of them as the powerhouse of the cell, but they do so much more. Mitochondria are responsible for intricate functions like detoxification, immune defense, and cell signaling. Their health is directly tied to our overall health.

Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Daria Mochly-Rosen to discuss why protecting our mitochondria is essential for long-term health. Dr. Daria reveals the top insults that damage mitochondrial function, such as air pollution, pesticides, and chronic stress, and explains how they’re linked to conditions like Parkinson’s disease. She also shares her groundbreaking research on aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 and emphasizes why, in today’s world, our mitochondria are under constant attack, making it more important than ever to reduce these burdens on the body.

Dr. Daria Mochly-Rosen is the George D. Smith professor for translational medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine. She is passionate about turning scientific discoveries into real-world treatments and helping people make informed health choices. She has founded three biotech companies and created SPARK, a program that focuses on translating scientific innovations to benefit patients. Following the success of the program at Stanford, which led to the formation of over fifty biopharmaceutical companies, SPARK now operates in dozens of universities around the world.
