Coenzyme-Q10(CoQ10)

Product Details

What is coenzyme Q10?

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also known as ubiquinone, is a fat-soluble substance mainly extracted from chicken, pig heart, and egg yolk. Its structure is similar to that of vitamin K, and it is widely present in all cells of the human body and is an important part of cell energy generation. Coenzyme-Q10 was first discovered in the liver in 1957 by Dr. Karl Fowlstahl, hence the name “Coenzyme-Q.”. Later, researchers found that coenzyme Q10 not only exists in the liver but also in all cells of the body, especially in high energy consumption organs such as the heart, muscle, and liver. Coenzyme-Q10 has been shown to play a vital role in many biochemical reactions, especially in maintaining heart function and energy metabolism.

Benefits

1. Provide energy

Coenzyme-Q10 plays an important role in energy production. It is involved in the respiratory chain system within mitochondria, which helps convert nutrients from food into energy needed by cells.

2. Protect the heart

Since the heart is one of the most important organs in the body, the demand for energy is the greatest. The level of CoQ10 in heart cells directly affects the efficiency and stability of the heart's functioning. Studies have found that CoQ10 deficiency can lead to decreased heart function and may lead to a range of cardiovascular diseases, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and heart failure. Some clinical trials have demonstrated that supplementation with CoQ10 can effectively improve the symptoms of these diseases.

3. Anti-inflammatory effect

Coenzyme-Q10 has anti-inflammatory effects and can relieve inflammatory diseases such as cardiovascular disease, arthritis and so on.

4. Regulate blood lipids

Blood lipid refers to the general name of lipid substances in the blood. Coenzyme-Q10 is a non-esterified substance, which can increase the immunity of the human body, and has the effects of reducing blood lipid, anti-platelet agglutination, lowering blood pressure, lowering cholesterol, etc., which can effectively regulate blood lipid levels.

5. Improve human immunity

Coenzyme-Q10 has a significant effect on physical fitness and immune function. Coenzyme-Q10 can increase the energy supply of muscle cells, improve exercise endurance and recovery speed. In addition, it can also improve the function of the immune system and enhance the body's ability to fight disease.

6. Antioxidantion

Coenzyme-Q10 is also a powerful antioxidant that, when used, activates the body's cellular energy antioxidant defense system, which effectively removes free radicals and protects cells from oxidative stress damage.

7. Resist fatigue

Coenzyme-Q10 can activate cell respiration, provide sufficient oxygen and energy for brain cells, make the human body full of vitality, energy, and brain power, so as to protect the brain nerve cells, enhance the vitality of the human body, and play an anti-fatigue role.

8. Protect the skin

Coenzyme-Q10 has an antioxidant effect, which can remove reactive oxygen species in the body and protect cell health. Coenzyme-Q10 can increase the concentration of hyaluronic acid in the skin, increase skin water content, improve dark skin tone, reduce wrinkles, and thus play a role in anti-aging and skin protection.

Why use Coenzyme-Q10?

As an important bioactive substance, coenzyme Q10 plays an important role in maintaining human health. With a proper diet and supplements, we can ensure that the body gets enough coenzyme Q10 to improve quality of life and maintain good health.
With age, the synthesis of coenzyme Q10 in the human body will gradually decrease. At the same time, some chronic diseases and medications can also cause the loss of coenzyme Q10 to increase. Therefore, some people may need to supplement with CoQ10 to maintain their health.
