“Mitochondrial DNA is very fragile and susceptible to mutation by environmental factors. When the mitochondria are not functioning at full capacity, the cell does not have the energy to carry out its necessary functions.” – says, Barry Smeltzer, MPAS, PA-C.

He is the owner of Healing Provisions PLLC of San Antonio, Texas, where he specializes in biomedical and environmental medicine interventions to assist in healing the body.
