The mitochondria are like tiny batteries inside your cells, helping your body make energy to stay healthy and fight germs. To work their best, mitochondria need help from your body’s clock (circadian rhythm), sunlight, and less of certain types of artificial light and electronic signals.
When you get sunlight in the morning, it helps charge these tiny batteries, telling your body it’s time to wake up and energize your cells—including immune cells, which fight off sickness.
Your circadian rhythm is like a schedule for your body, making sure you sleep at night and get active during the day. Good sleep keeps your mitochondria running smoothly, so your immune system gets stronger.
Too much blue light from screens after dark (phones, tablets, lights) makes your body think it’s daytime and can confuse your clock. That stops your mitochondria from fully “charging” during sleep, so you might feel tired and your immune system doesn’t fight as well.
EMF (energy from electronics and wireless gadgets) can make mitochondria work less well, giving your cells less power and your immune system less energy to fight infections.
In simple words: Getting sunlight, sleeping well, turning off screens before bed, and avoiding too many electronic gadgets helps your mitochondria stay strong, so your immune soldiers can keep you safe and healthy.
