CoQ10/ Coenzyme Q10
Dietary supplement, 120 capsules
CoQ10 / Coenzyme Q10, 120 capsules , is a dietary supplement from the American company Nutricost. It does not contain gluten and GMOs. The dietary supplement offers numerous health benefits, has antioxidant properties, contributes to the normal functioning of the cardiovascular system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
Coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, is a compound that helps generate energy in cells. The human body produces CoQ10 naturally, but its production decreases with age. Health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, brain disorders, diabetes mellitus, and cancer have been linked to low levels of CoQ10.
CoQ10 is stored in the mitochondria of cells. Mitochondria are responsible for energy production, protecting cells from oxidative damage and the entry of disease-causing bacteria or viruses.
CoQ10 production decreases with age, but there are other causes of its deficiency:
- Nutritional deficiencies, such as vitamin B6 deficiency;
- Genetic defects in the synthesis or utilization of CoQ10;
- Increased tissue demands as a result of disease;
- Mitochondrial diseases;
- Oxidative stress;
- Side effects of statin treatment.
Research shows that CoQ10 plays several key roles in the body:
- helps generate energy in cells and participates in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is involved in energy transfer;
- It serves as an antioxidant and protects cells from oxidative damage.
CoQ10 is present in every cell of the body, but the highest concentrations are found in organs with the greatest energy needs, such as the heart, kidneys, lungs, and liver.
Health benefits :
- May aid in heart failure therapy
CoQ10 supplementation has been shown to be beneficial in heart failure by improving cardiac function, increasing ATP production, and limiting oxidative damage. CoQ10 has been shown to improve symptoms of congestive heart failure and may help lower arterial blood pressure.
Female fertility declines with age due to a decrease in the number and quality of available eggs. CoQ10 is directly involved in this process. As we age, CoQ10 production slows down, making the body less effective at protecting eggs from oxidative damage. Taking CoQ10 helps with age-related declines in egg quality and quantity. The antioxidant properties of CoQ10 may also help improve sperm quality in men.
- Improves the health and beautiful appearance of the skin
Taking CoQ10 may reduce skin damage from internal and external agents by increasing energy production in skin cells and promoting antioxidant defenses. The dietary supplement may help reduce the risk of developing skin cancer.
Abnormal mitochondrial function can lead to increased calcium uptake by cells, excessive free radical production, and reduced antioxidant defenses. This may be a cause of negative energy balance in neurons, as well as an explanation for the occurrence of migraines. Taking CoQ10 helps prevent and treat this condition by supporting mitochondrial function and reducing inflammation.
- Plays a role in cancer prevention
Oxidative stress is known to cause damage to cells and affect their function. If the body is unable to effectively combat oxidative damage, the structure of cells becomes damaged, which increases the risk of developing cancer. CoQ10 can protect cells from oxidative stress and promote cellular energy production, optimizing their functioning.
