Details
CoQ-10 is a fat-soluble quinone that is structurally similar to vitamin K and commonly known as Ubiquinone. Co Q10 is found in most living organisms, it is essential to the production of cellular energy and can be both synthesized in the body and derived from dietary sources.
CoQ-10 is important because it lies within the membrane of a cell organelle called the mitochondria. Mitochondria are affectionately known as the "power house" of the cell because of their ability to produce cellular energy, or ATP, by shuttling protons derived from nutrient breakdown through the process of aerobic (oxygen) metabolism.
CoQ-10 also has a secondary role as an antioxidant. Several clinical trials have shown CoQ-10 to be effective in supporting blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
Furthermore, CoQ-10 has also been shown to improve cardiovascular health. These facts lead many to believe that CoQ-10 supplementation is vital to any dietary supplementation program.
