Your body is constantly fighting to stay healthy.
All it needs is the right support.
Salugenesis
Salutogenesis (coined by medical sociologist Aaron Antonovsky in his book, Health, Stress and Coping) is an approach that focuses on the origins of health versus the origins of disease. This approach considers the body’s potential to sustain health and well-being is central to living a healthful life.
Taking this concept further, Robert K. Naviaux, MD, PhD, professor of Medicine, Pediatrics and Pathology at UC San Diego School of Medicine, defines Salugenesis – focused on the molecular, metabolic, and cellular stages of the healing cycle. It is the process by which the body tries to heal itself in response to physical and mental stresses.
In Salugenesis, every molecule, every cell and every organ inside the body takes part in this self-healing process. Together, they fight to keep your body in optimal health.
Mitochondria. (More about them later)
Bioenergetics
Metabolism is about all the chemical processes – including Salugenesis – that happen inside living organisms and every chemical process involves the making and breaking of chemical bonds in molecules.
Simply put, Bioenergetics is about how energy flows as bonds are made and bonds are broken – how energy in food is converted into energy that fuels processes in cells, how energy is used to convert food into molecules that are the building blocks of proteins, lipids, nucleic acids and carbohydrates, and how energy is used to eliminate waste products.
Key to this flow of energy, is adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the molecule that is the “currency of energy” used to fuel health and well-being.
And all the action happens in the Mitochondria.
Mitochondria
Mitochondria store energy obtained from food metabolism, and provide it to fuel cellular processes from maintaining optimal cellular function to responding to cellular stress or insult that can lead to acute, sub-chronic or chronic pathologies. They provide the cell and the body the needed resources to address these insults and promote healing – also called Salugenesis.
Cells that need more energy, like those in the heart and brain have more mitochondria per cell while others like skin cells have fewer.
Except for red blood cells, every cell in your body can contain thousands of mitochondria that also participate in regulating other systems (for more details, see our blog).
Mitochondria play an important role in
- Promoting strength and endurance in heart and skeletal muscles
- Promoting optimal blood flow
- Maintaining a healthy metabolic profile
- Improving kidney function
- Addressing both internal and external insults that affect the health and function of a cell

Mitochondrial biogenesis
Mitochondrial biogenesis is a process by which cells create new mitochondria. The more mitochondria there are in your body, the more energy for your body to use. Which means walking more, running faster, recovering from exhaustion quicker, and generally feeling full of life.
The interesting thing about mitochondrial biogenesis is that we can influence it through our lifestyle choices. For instance, studies have shown that exercise stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscles.
Mitophagy
Mitophagy, a cellular process, is your body’s way of dealing with damaged mitochondria. It breaks them down, recycles their components, or removes them entirely.
During their lifecycle, mitochondria constantly divide (fission) and bond (fusion) to meet your body’s energy demands.
Fission allows the cell to segregate and degrade dysfunctional mitochondria through mitophagy. The healthy mitochondrion from each division continues the cycle of fission and fusion till it wears out. After a person turns 20, they lose approximately 15% of their mitochondrial density every decade.
Aging, illnesses and mental stress also damage the mitochondria and cause them to dysfunction.
