Triple Strength Co-Q 10, Supports Antioxidant & Energy Activities
What is Coenzyme Q-10?
It is the cofactor of an enzyme. Enzymes are the protein substances that are
found in all living things; they are needed for tissue and cell building and
repairing. Coenzyme Q-10 is an antioxidant that is the essential component of
cellular energy. It's highest concentrations are found in the heart and liver,
and is synthesized in the body.
CoQ-10 and Aging
In normal aging, the body loses it's ability to manufacture adequate amounts of
CoQ-10. Levels of CoQ-10 can decline by as much as 80% as you age. It is thought
that the decreased levels of CoQ-10 brought on by aging may lead to age-related
discomforts.
CoQ-10 and your heart
The heart needs a constant supply of energy for it's continuous actions of
pumping and contracting. Because the richest concentrations of CoQ-10 are in the
heart, preventing a deficiency by supplying the body with sufficient amounts may
promote healthy activity and nourish the circulatory system. As many as 75% of
heart patients are found to be deficient in CoQ-10.
The effects of CoQ-10 Deficiency
Along with aging, other factors may deplete the body of CoQ-10, affecting the
body's ability to manufacture adequate amounts and increasing the risk of a
deficiency. These are: poor eating habits, stress and particular conditions such
as an infection. A deficiency may also have a direct impact on many other body
functions as well. Because high concentrations are also stored in the liver,
maintaining and adequate supply of CoQ-10 and preventing a deficiency may ensure
that it is properly nourished and performing at its peak.
Co-Q10 functions as a vitamin and is present in
the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Its primary function is an antioxidant
which stablizes the membrane activity and prevents depletion of metabolites
necessary for the resynthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The reduced form
of the CoQ10 inhibits lipid peroxidation and protects against oxidative stress
