Also known as
ubiquinone, co-enzyme Q10 is the enzyme responsible for the last
biochemical pathway required for energy production within our cells.
It is therefore not surprising to find the highest concentrations of
co-enzyme Q10 in those organs, which have the highest energy
requirements such as the heart muscle and liver, and in those tissues
that regenerate quickly such as the gums.
A lack of
co-enzyme Q10 has been associated with periodental (gum) disease.
Similarly it has been shown that those with certain heart conditions
and the obese tend to have low co-enzyme Q10 levels. Co-enzyme Q10 is
found in foods, particularly organ meat, but cooking and processing
methods have a tendency to destroy it and, whilst it can be made in
the body, production declines as we age. In fact, a lack of energy in
older people may, in part, be connected with lower co-enzyme Q10
production in the body.
Our Co-Enzyme
Q10 now comes in a handy one-a-day 100mg potency and, as with all
nutrients, absorption is of prime importance so it is presented in a
vegetable oil base for easier assimilation.
Supplied in
gelatin-free capsules. |
