Coenzyme Q10, also known as Ubiquinone, is a vitamin-like substance our body produces that is vital to energy metabolism. Natural sources of Coenzyme Q 10, a powerful antioxidant, include meat, fish, peanuts, spinach, soy nuts and organ meats.
When diet is not sufficient to provide, or maintain, ideal levels of coenzyme Q10 for maintaining good general health then supplementation is recommended.
Cholesterol-lowering drugs may block the production of Coenzyme Q10 in some people (1 in 200) causing muscle inflammation and pain; dietary supplementation can help maintain normal levels of coenzyme Q10.
COQ10 is used in a variety of dietary supplements such as antioxidant formulas, anti-aging, sports nutrition (athletic performance), cholesterol protection, and weight-loss products and for the prevention of gum disease.
Our water-soluble form can be used in unique beverage formulas, chewable tablets, functional foods, cosmetics and superior dietary supplements.
