HOW IT WORKS: Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is also known as ubiquinone, because it is in every plant and animal cell. Although it is synthesized in the human body, the sick and the elderly may not be able to make enough. This vitamin-like substance is responsible for the production of the body’s own energy, and it is necessary for the manufacture of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the basic energy carrier molecule of the cell. Therefore, those organs with the highest energy requirements, such as the heart, lungs, and liver, have been shown to have the highest CoQ10 concentrations. CoQ10 also has antioxidant activity in mitochondria and cellular membranes, protecting against peroxidation of lipid membranes. In addition, CoQ10 has revitalizing effects on the immune system. DID YOU KNOW… Signifi cant coenzyme Q10 defi ciencies have been found in diseased gum tissue, and CoQ10’s effi cacy in reducing infl ammation and periodontal pocket depth has been demonstrated in placebo-controlled trials. RESEARCH: Clinical studies spanning several decades report positive results from the use of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of congestive heart failure. Several studies have also demonstrated a strong correlation between severity of heart disease and severity of CoQ10 deficiency. In addition, cholesterol-lowering drugs, such as statin medication, have been found to lower CoQ10 levels, and some health care practitioners recommend taking supplemental CoQ10 if cholesterol-lowering drugs are prescribed SIDE EFFECTS: No side effects expected at recommended dosage. High doses of fish oil may cause belching, flatulence, nausea, bloating, and diarrhea.
