Now Foods CoQ10 is a dietary supplement which contains coenzyme Q10, an endogenous compound responsible for the production of cellular energy in mitochondria. The product adds vitality, reduces the symptoms of fatigue and improves body system capacity. What is more, it shows antioxidant properties and plays an important role in the protection of heart and cardiovascular system.

The supplement is recommended for physically active, tired and stressed people. It can be used within the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.

Coenzyme Q10, also known as ubiquinone, is an organic compound of a structure similar to a vitamin, synthesized from tyrosine and fatty acids. It is present in all cells and tissues of the body system, and in largest quantities – in the heart, brain and liver. It plays a role of a cofactor in numerous biochemical reactions. The most important function of coenzyme Q10 is its participation in the process essential for life, which is energy production. Furthermore, the compound shows strong antioxidant properties, which is why it minimizes the risk of damage caused by the effects of reactive oxygen species.

Stimulation of energetic metabolism
The most important biological functioning of coenzyme Q10 is associated with its participation in the process of cellular respiration. Coenzyme Q10 stimulates functioning of mitochondria and is necessary for transforming the energy obtained from food into adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

ATP is a universal source of energy, used by all cells of the body system. The level of adenosine triphosphate affects the functioning of the whole organism. Coenzyme Q10 deficiencies lead to mitochondrial metabolism disorders, whose first symptoms are weakness, exhaustion and decline in body system capacity.

Antioxidant potential
The oxidative balance is essential to maintain health and optimal condition of the body system. It is mainly affected by antioxidants which remove the excess of free radicals from the body system and protect tissues from their harmful effects.

Coenzyme Q10 is a very strong antioxidant. It prevents oxidation of proteins and lipids and moreover strengthens the effects and supports the regeneration of an important antioxidant, which is vitamin E.

Support for the cardiovascular system
Coenzyme Q10 has a positive influence on heart functions and can be used to prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases.

Coenzyme Q10 stimulates the production and use of ATP by the heart muscle, which is why it improves the heart functions.

Coenzyme Q10 helps to regulate blood pressure. The research with participation of people suffering from hypertension has demonstrated that, after the use of coenzyme Q10 for 12 weeks, the blood pressure reduction was observed in all patients and at the same time orthostatic hypotension was not reported.

Coenzyme Q10 improves the rheological properties of blood. It prevents the excessive platelet aggregation, which is why it reduces blood viscosity and improves its circulation.

Coenzyme Q10 protects the cells of heart muscle from the harmful effects of free radicals and prevents lipid peroxidation. It inhibits the process of LDL cholesterol oxidation, which can lead to the development of atherosclerosis.

Improvement of body system capacity
Coenzyme Q10 supports the energetic metabolism, which is why it can be used to improve body system capacity. The natural production of coenzyme Q10 declines with age, which not only accelerates the ageing process but also negatively affects condition. Complementing the levels of coenzyme Q10 results in greater vitality and life energy.

Numerous studies in athletes have demonstrated that coenzyme Q10 supplementation affects the reduction in fatigue and improves regeneration. Moreover, the researchers observed an improvement in test results of the patients.

To sum it all up, CoQ10 is a supplement with a broad spectrum of health promoting properties. It is recommended especially for tired people and those complaining about lack of energy. It will be also perfect for seniors in whom the decline in condition is a natural consequence of body system ageing. It will be useful as a therapy support and part of prevention of cardiovascular diseases. 

Dosage

RECOMMENDATIONS OF MUSCLE-ZONE EXPERTJakub kola

Coenzyme Q10 stimulates mitochondria functions, which is why it is perfect in the periods of physical and mental exhaustion. The positive effects can be observed already after few weeks of regular supplementation.

Typically, the doses amount for 100–200 mg a day. Coenzyme Q10 is oil-soluble, which is why it should be taken with a meal containing a good source of fat.
