ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This episode shares key points from Dr Isabelle Adant, a paediatrician and metabolic fellow who supports people living with mito. She explained simple ways food can help with energy, muscles, bones and gut comfort.
Her main tips were clear:
- Choose more complex carbs for steadier energy.
- Include protein across the whole day, not just at dinner.
- Make sure you get enough calcium and vitamin D for bone strength.
- Drink enough fluids and adjust meals if gut symptoms flare.
She reminded everyone that food should not feel stressful. Small changes can help, and support is there if eating is hard.
