PRODUCT INFORMATION:

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a compound found naturally in virtually every cell in the human body. Because of its ubiquitous presence in nature and its quinone structure (similar to that of vitamin K), CoQ10 is also known as ubiquinone.

CoQ10 is a fat-soluble substance whose primary role is as a vital intermediate of the electron transport system in the mitochondria. Adequate amounts of CoQ10 are necessary for cellular respiration and ATP production. CoQ10 also functions as an intercellular antioxidant. True deficiency states are rare but often present with severe health consequences.

Numerous disease processes, linked to low levels of CoQ10, can benefit from CoQ10 supplementation including cardiovascular disease, Parkinson’s disease, muscular dystrophy, breast and other cancers, diabetes mellitus, male infertility, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), asthma, thyroid disorders and periodontal disease.

Coenzyme Q10 is synthesized intracellularly in the human body using tyrosine as the fundamental building block. This first step requires pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (vitamin B6) as a cofactor, so adequate vitamin B6 nutriture is essential for CoQ10 biosynthesis. Certain situations can disrupt the body’s ability to produce enough CoQ10 to meet requirements. Cells and tissues that are metabolically active have the highest CoQ10 requirements (such as the heart, immune system, and gingiva) and as such are most susceptible to CoQ10 deficiency.

The primary role of CoQ10 is as a vital intermediate of the electron transport system in the mitochondria. Adequate amounts of CoQ10 are necessary for cellular respiration and ATP production. Due to its involvement in ATP synthesis, CoQ10 affects the function of all cells in the body, making it essential for the health of all tissues and organs. CoQ10 also functions as an intercellular antioxidant at the mitochondrial level, perhaps accounting for its benefit in neurodegenerative diseases, male infertility, and periodontal disease.

Tissue deficiencies or subnormal serum levels of CoQ10 have been reported in a wide range of medical conditions, including Cardiovascular disease, Neuromuscular disease, Hypertension, Periodontal disease, Asthma, Hyperthyroidism, Male infertility, AIDS.
