COENZYME Q10 - Consumer Information:
Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring substance found in humans, plants and animals. Present in every cell in the body, this coenzyme is responsible for the production of almost all cellular energy and therefore, for good health and survival. Research has shown that coenzyme Q10 can provide relief from cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, obesity and periodontal disease, in addition to stimulation of the immune system and slowing the ageing process.
Coenzyme Q10 is derived from a fermentation process involving a bacterial culture of beet. The natural form of coenzyme Q10 has been found to be non-toxic and has been used for over adecade by the Japanese to treat a variety of disorders and to boost longevity.
Although the body can produce its own coenzyme Q10, deficiencies are common. In such cases. supplements with this natural form can prove very beneficial. However, if the body’s levels are normal, coenzyme Q10 will have little or no effect.
Similar in chemical structure to vitamin E, coenzyme has a potent antioxidant factor that is known to slow ageing. In the elderly, coenzyme Q10 supplements can lead to increased energy and stamina, and stimulation of the immune system. Age-related periodontal disease has been totally reversed by coenzyme Q10, and healing of gum tissue greatly accelerated.
Studies have shown that coenzyme Q10 levels tend to be abnormally low if the body is under stress, so it is not surprising that supplementation is beneficial in a wide variety of health disorders. Many case studies and clinical trials are documented in Dr. William Lee’s booklet entitled “Coenzyme Q10 – is it our new foundation of youth? A Good Health Guide.”
