Re:Mitochondria may hold keys to anxiety and mental health by oxidising on Wednesday August 12, 2020 @12:11PM (#24133499)
This is incorrect. Most ATP found in our cells is in the form of MgATP and magnesium is crucial for the regulation of ATP production [1]. ATP levels are tightly controlled within cells and although mitochondria may play a role in psychological disorders [this article][2] simply saying that less ATP means less anxiety is wrong.
