⚡ CoQ10

CoQ10 (Coenzyme Q10) is a vitamin-like compound found in every cell of the body.
It plays a major role in cellular energy production and acts as a powerful antioxidant.
Levels naturally decline with age, stress, certain medications, and chronic illnesses — which is why supplementation can be beneficial.

🔬 What CoQ10 Does in the Body

1️⃣ Energy Production (ATP Support)

CoQ10 is essential for the electron transport chain, the process your mitochondria use to create ATP, your body’s main energy molecule.

More CoQ10 = better energy production at the cellular level.

This is why it supports heart, brain, and muscle tissues (they all require high energy).

2️⃣ Powerful Antioxidant

CoQ10 helps neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress, supporting:

• Healthy aging

• Reduced cellular damage

• Better recovery

• Stronger immune function

3️⃣ Heart Health

The heart uses tons of energy, so CoQ10 plays a major role in supporting:

• Healthy heart muscle function

• Better circulation

• Healthy blood pressure

• Reduced oxidative stress in blood vessels

Many cardiologists recommend CoQ10 for patients on statin medications.

4️⃣ Supports Statin Medication Users

Statins lower cholesterol by blocking the HMG-CoA reductase pathway — the same pathway the body uses to make CoQ10.
This can reduce CoQ10 levels and cause fatigue or muscle soreness.

CoQ10 supplementation may reduce:

• Muscle pain

• Weakness

• Fatigue associated with statins

5️⃣ Brain & Cognitive Support

CoQ10 helps protect neurons and support brain energy, helping with:

• Mental clarity

• Memory

• Focus

• Age-related cognitive decline

6️⃣ Skin Health & Anti-Aging

As an antioxidant, CoQ10 helps:

• Reduce wrinkles

• Protect against UV damage

• Improve skin elasticity

It is often added to anti-aging creams.

7️⃣ Exercise Performance

CoQ10 may improve:

• Energy production

• Muscle endurance

• VO₂ max

• Recovery time

It helps reduce exercise-induced oxidative stress.
