CoQ10/ Coenzyme Q10
Food supplement, 120 capsules
CoQ10 / Coenzyme Q10, 120 capsules , is a nutritional supplement of the American company Nutricost. It does not contain gluten or GMOs. The nutritional supplement offers numerous health benefits, has antioxidant properties, contributes to the normal functioning of the cardiovascular system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
Coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, is a compound that helps generate energy in cells. The human body produces CoQ10 naturally, but its production declines with age. Health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, brain disorders, diabetes mellitus, and cancer have been linked to low levels of CoQ10.
CoQ10 is stored in the mitochondria of cells. Mitochondria are responsible for energy production, protecting cells from oxidative damage and the entry of disease-causing bacteria or viruses.
The production of CoQ10 decreases with age, but there are other reasons for its deficiency:
- Nutritional deficiencies, for example vitamin B 6 deficiency;
- Genetic defects in the synthesis or utilization of CoQ10;
- Increased tissue requirements as a result of disease;
- Mitochondrial diseases;
- Oxidative stress;
- Side effects of statin treatment.
Research shows that CoQ10 plays several key roles in the body:
- helps generate energy in cells and participates in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is involved in energy transfer;
- serves as an antioxidant and protects cells from oxidative damage.
CoQ10 is present in every cell of the body, but the highest concentrations are found in the organs with the greatest energy needs, such as the heart, kidneys, lungs and liver.
Health benefits :
- It can help in the treatment of heart failure
CoQ10 intake is beneficial in heart failure by improving cardiac function, increasing ATP production, and limiting oxidative damage. CoQ10 has been shown to improve symptoms of congestive heart failure and may help lower blood pressure.
Female fertility declines with age due to a decrease in the number and quality of available eggs. CoQ10 is directly involved in this process. As we age, CoQ10 production slows, making the body less effective at protecting eggs from oxidative damage. Taking CoQ10 helps with age-related decline in egg quality and quantity. The antioxidant properties of CoQ10 can also help improve sperm quality in men.
- Improves the health and beautiful appearance of the skin
Taking CoQ10 can reduce skin damage from internal and external agents by increasing energy production in skin cells and promoting antioxidant defense. The dietary supplement may help reduce the risk of developing skin cancer.
Abnormal mitochondrial function can lead to increased cellular calcium uptake, excessive free radical production, and reduced antioxidant defenses. This may be the cause of a negative energy balance in the neurons, as well as an explanation for the presence of migraines. Taking CoQ10 helps prevent and treat this disease by supporting mitochondrial function and reducing inflammation.
- It plays a role in cancer prevention
Oxidative stress is known to cause damage to cells and affect their function. If the body is unable to effectively combat oxidative damage, the structure of cells is damaged, increasing the risk of developing cancer. CoQ10 can protect cells from oxidative stress and promote cellular energy production, optimizing their functioning.
