CoQ10 (Ubiquinone)

What is CoQ10? Coenzyme Q10 is a natural compound found in the body that helps to facilitate production of energy within cells. CoQ10 is stored in each cell's mitochondria and functions both as an ATP (energy) generator and an antioxidant, which works to protect cells from oxidative damage1. Our CoQ10 supplement contains Ubiquinone as the active ingredient, which is an oxidized form of the coenzyme and has been shown to increase levels of CoQ10 in the body. Why Should I Take CoQ10? While CoQ10 is produced naturally, concentrations of the compound decline with age. Due to this, it's recommended that older individuals increase their CoQ10 intake through diet or supplementation. However, benefits of supplementation can be seen in younger populations as well. Considering this compound improves energy production and safeguards cells against stress or damage, it can be reasonably assumed that increasing CoQ10 intake will be beneficial for a wide variety of goals or individuals2.
