when you look at cells that are not turning over quickly so Maya sites neurons what did you say was the approximate turnover of mitochondria probably a few days
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
there's differences between dividing cells versus non-dividing cells when you have a dividing cell obviously as a function of the eukaryotic cell cycle you need to double the number of mitochondria and then you partition that into two then you double partition so dividing cells have very different mitochondrial turnover dynamics than non dividing tissues like must learn neurons
I think in most non-dividing tissues the half-life is on the order of a few days
