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. It is found in all plant and animal cells
making it easily obtained through the diet, but not in optimum
levels. 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). It 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. Co-Q10 is found in the highest
concentrations 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. This research
is inconclusive at this time.

- May support cardiovascular health
- Shown to protect cell membranes from free radical damage
- Necessary nutrient for energy production at a cellular level
- May support healthy immune function
- Powerful antioxidant properties
- May support healthy insulin production
- Has been shown to support healthy blood pressure
- Shown to prevent oxidation of LDL cholesterol
- Has been associated with an increase in sperm count
- May protect against the side effects of certain drugs
- Gum disease, muscular dystrophy, and obesity have all been
linked to Co-Q10 deficiency
