		<description><![CDATA[There is more and more research connecting mitochondrial dysfunction with many other major diseases and illnesses &#8211; including autism, parkinson&#8217;s, alzheimer&#8217;s, and even some forms of cancer. The link between the mitochondria and other diseases, as well as aging in general, is in its infancy and needs much more research! Not only will this research [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m very happy to report that Autism Speaks is starting to seriously consider mitochondrial dysfunction and its relationship to autism. While the Hannah Poling case initially got everyone jumping up and down about the connection between vaccines and autism, once again, the more important thing that should have come from that case is that Hannah [...]]]></description>

The article, Fever Plus Mitochondrial Disease Could Be Risk Factors for Autistic Regression, is not yet fully published, but the abstract indicates a possible link. Their study was based upon twenty-eight (28) patients who fit both the criteria for autism [...]]]></description>

In fact, their conclusion drawn thus far indicates that the mitochondrial dysfunction may be the cause of their disease! You can read about the research here.

The drug is targeted to treat Alzheimer&#8217;s disease, but it may be one that we need to look at for treatment of mitochondrial disease as well. Dimebon, according to Pfizer, is thought to potentially stabilize or improve mitochondrial function in a [...]]]></description>
