What is Coenzyme Q10?

Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is a lipid molecule, which is similar in structure to vitamin E, that plays a major role in various processes in the body. Coenzyme Q10 works together with other enzymes as a catalyst of various metabolic activities and is necessary for their proper functioning and the production of energy needed for growth and maintenance of body cells.

Coenzyme Q10 is found in most body tissues, and in especially high amounts in muscles, such as the heart and liver, kidneys and pancreas.

Usually, the molecule is produced in the body, however, there are many factors that lead to its quantity to decrease: age - as we get older the level of Coenzyme Q10 decreases , heart disease, unbalanced diet, strenuous exercise , cytotoxic therapy, treatment with cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) and due to a deficiency of B-group vitamins, which cause a decrease in the production of Q10 in the liver, resulting in a decrease in blood levels. All these conditions require an extra supplement of Q10 from external source.

In addition, Coenzyme Q10 is a potent antioxidant. An antioxidant  protects cells from free radicals that can damage cell parts, including DNA, that contains our genetic information. As an antioxidant Coenzyme Q10 protects the cell from aging process by preventing peroxidation damages of membrane lipids.

What conditions recommend intake of coenzyme Q10?

The heart is the most active muscle in the human body, it beats about 100,000 times a day. In order for it to function properly, your heart needs high energy levels. High and constant levels of coenzyme Q10 allow energy production in myocardial cells, and therefore are important for its normal activity. Numerous studies in recent years once again raise the crucial contribution of Q10 supplementation to body health and heart disease prevention.

Lack of Coenzyme Q10 especially affects tissues that require a great deal of energy for their activity, and tissues and systems that change and regenerate at a rapid rate like the muscles, particularly myocardium as well as gum tissue and the immune system. Consuming a Coenzyme Q10 regularly will help prevent a condition of deficiency, thus preventing many side effects that can result from this lack , for instance fatigue, weakness and muscle pain and various chronic diseases such as diabetes.

Why is it important to provide your body Q10 on a daily basis?

  • Coenzyme Q10 is effective in protecting various enzyme systems in the body
  • Effective in reducing the risk of cardiovascular and blood vessels disease
  • Assists in eliminating free radicals and protects the cell DNA and cell membranes
  • Helps prevent lipid oxidation in the body
  • Protects our body from the various aging processes it undergoes
  • Effective in strengthening the immune system
  • Coenzyme Q10 helps to improve performance in athletes due to the significant effect on the heart muscle

How to take Coenzyme Q10?

Like the other vitamins, minerals and essential components in our body, poor diet is one of the major causes of its deficiency. People who often consume processed foods may experience a lack of Coenzyme Q10. Q10 is found mainly in fish and meat, but the amounts found in food are significantly lower than those that can be obtained through dietary supplements. There are various types of dietary supplements containing only Coenzyme Q10 and there is also a multivitamin containing it. The recommended dosage for adults is 30-90 mg a day, however, there are those who recommend higher doses,  to be taken with the approval of a physician. Taking the supplement in certain situations requires medical supervision. Also, it is not recommended to stop taking the Coenzyme Q10 without medical permission. To improve its absorption it is recommended to take the supplement with the meal.
