Overview

 

Coenzyme Q10 was first identified in 1957. At that time it was known as ubiquinone (from the term ubiquitous) because it is found everywhere in nature. Although Co-Q10 is easily obtained in all plant and animal cells, it is not found in optimum levels; therefore supplementation is necessary. It is a catalyst for food metabolism working in conjunction with enzymes, thus the name "coenzyme".

 

Co-Q10 is essential to energy production and necessary for the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a multifunctional chemical compound necessary for healthy cellular maintenance. Co-Q10 functions in the transfer of energy and oxygen between blood and body cells and also between cell components; in other words it is essential for the body's cells, tissues, and organs. Concentrated amounts are located in cells of the heart, liver, kidney and pancreas. Co-Q10 works together with Vitamin E and may protect it from damage. Current research indicates that it may play an important role in prevention of various cardiovascular diseases. In addition, research is being conducted to determine whether Co-Q10 may be useful in supporting healthy immune function.

 

Our Coenzyme Q10 is available in as a 100mg softgel as well as 30mg, 60mg, and 100mg potencies in vegetarian capsules.
