Coenzyme Q10 - 30mg
Acting as a catalyst for energy production, Coenzyme Q10 increases energy
at a cellular level. It is known to support heart health and overall
cellular vigor. CoQ10 levels diminish with age and supplementation can
help restore energy, vitality. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an essential
component of mitochondria - the energy producing unit of the cells of
the body. CoQ10 is involved in the manufacture of ATP, the energy
currency of all body processes. CoQ10’s role is similar to that of a
spark plug in a car engine — without that initial spark, the human body
cannot function without CoQ10. CoQ10 can be synthesized within the body,
but sometimes the body simply does not make enough. The heart is one of
the most metabolically active organs in the body, and a CoQ10 deficiency
affects the heart most and can lead to serious problems. Deficiency can
result from impaired CoQ10 synthesis due to poor diet, genetic or
acquired defects in CoQ10 synthesis, or increased tissue needs. Heart
and vascular diseases, including high cholesterol levels and high blood
pressure, can increase tissue demand for CoQ10 and people over 50 may
need more CoQ10 as levels are known to decline with advancing age.
