CoQ10 is also less well-known as "ubiquinone" or "ubidecarenone", but most commonly as CoQ10. This substance is an all-important component of mitochondria, the energy producing unit of our cells. Every bodily process — including all immune responses — requires CoQ10.
The body manufacturesWarnings, but many people don’t make it very efficiently due to the highly complicated biochemical process involved. The quantity of CoQ10 obtained from dietary sources is often insufficient. Poor diets can lead to aWarningsdeficiency, as can aging.
How can CoQ10 supplementation benefit people?
CoQ10 is an essential component of the energy producing process of every cell. No other substance can be substituted for it, and without it there virtually is no life. In order for the body to produce an immune response, a continuous supply of energy is needed, and to produce this energy, a constant and sufficient amount of CoQ10 mustbe present.
Coenzyme Q10 also has very strong antioxidant power. Antioxidants protect against free radical damage. Simply defined, a free radical is a highly reactive molecule that can bind and damage (or destroy) body cells. Oxidative free radical damage is what makes us age. Antioxidants can help negate the effects of free radicals. Antioxidants seem to perform well in conjunction, and CoQ10 works synergistically with other antioxidants, such as beta-carotene, vitamin C, and vitamin E.
Other possible benefits of CoQ10:
CoQ10may may also benefit overall cardiovascular health. By furnishing cellular energy to all cells, CoQ10 improves oxygenation of the heart muscles. There’s also current studies assessing CoQ10 with respect to blood pressure, and studies assessing CoQ10 in statin drug induced CoQ10 deficiency.
The primary detoxifying organ in the body is the liver. In order to perform detoxification, sustained cellular energy is required, and CoQ10 helps support this cellular energy.
CoQ10 is also supports mitochondrial function inside cells.
Is CoQ10 safe to take?
Long term use of CoQ10 has demonstrated no harmful effects. It’s well-tolerated by the body, and the single reported side effect has been slight discomfort or nausea, and this is exceedingly uncommon.
Why should I take CoQ10?
CoQ10 is a completely natural substance and is found in numerous foods. Foods most abundant in the nutrient are organ meats such as heart, kidney, liver, or various kinds of fish, principally mackerel and sardines. Additional sources include broccoli, corn, eggs, spinach, potatoes, and sesame seeds. Assorted nuts such as almonds, chestnuts, peanuts, pistachios and walnuts contain CoQ10 as well. Regrettably, foods that are cooked or processed have their levels of CoQ10 diminished.
