Why Take Coenzyme Q10? And What Exactly is It?
What exactly is CoQ10 and how does it help? You might have heard of it helping with everything from migraines to heart health. Let’s break down what it is and how it helps so much more!
Like so many, in my 40’s I began suffering from debilitating migraines. I sought out advice from medical professionals to help find relief. I was told by neurologist to take it for my migraines and also by my orthopedist to take it for my tendinitis. So, what exactly is CoQ10 and how does it help?
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10, known as ubiquinone) is a fat soluble, vitamin-like compound found in virtually every cell of every living thing and is present in all human cells. It is needed for every basic cellular function, including energy production and, in fact, even life itself. Do I have your attention now? Learn more about protecting your body and the positive benefits of boosting CoQ10.
Coenzyme Q10 is an essential antioxidant for energy production, healthy heart function, and many other critical functions of the body.
Our body produces CoQ10 naturally, but production tends to decrease with age. By the age of 50, our natural production can decrease by as much as 50%! Choice in diet, lifestyle patterns and medications factors that can accelerate this loss in production even faster. For instance, studies have shown that the cholesterol lowering drugs known as “statins” disrupt CoQ10's natural biosynthesis within the body, depleting CoQ10 even further.
So Why Take a Coenzyme Q10 Supplement?
Low CoQ10 levels are directly associated with higher risk of cancer, diabetes, heart disease, neurodegenerative diseases, certain genetic disorders, and accelerated aging.
Skin Health: Acting as a strong antioxidant, CoQ10 helps to neutralize the harmful free radicals that are one of the major causes of aging.
Weight Loss and Gained Energy: CoQ10 assists in increasing the production of cellular energy and boosts metabolism. Research shows that an insufficient amount of CoQ10 is a contributing factor in some cases of obesity.
