Mitochondria produce energy in your cells. When you increase the number of mitochondria in your cells you are turning up your body’s power to burn calories and fat. To help raise the number of mitochondria, you need to exercise regularly. Don’t forget to cool off because it will help the mitochondria increase in size and numbers.[1]
Try swimming, rowing or just walking! They raise your heart rate gradually and use major muscle groups that cause a greater demand in energy production thus creating more mitochondria.
