A member asked:
Is there a way to check how healthy your mitochondria are?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There are no specific tests for mitochondrial function. One can get a good idea of how the mitochondria appear on biopsy samples, at times. There can’t be genetic testing for certain mitochondrial diseases, if they are suspected. See your primary doctor if this is suspected. Good luck.
