CoEnzyme
Q10
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat-soluble vitamin or vitamin like substance that is also a potent antioxidant. As a strong antioxidant, CoQ10 is extremely important in neutralize free radicals however its most important function is to help create energy. Coenzymes as a group are cofactors essential for a large number of enzymatic reactions within the body. CoQ10 is the cofactor for at least three very important enzymes used within the mitochondria of the cell. The mitochondria are essentially the battery of the cell, where the energy of the cell is produced which is in turn needed by other cellular functions.
Though our body has the ability to make CoQ10, it is a complicated process that requires at least eight vitamins and trace minerals to complete. A deficiency in any one of these nutrients can hinder the body’s natural production of CoQ10. As we age, CoQ10 levels decline and make mitochondria especially vulnerable to oxidative damage. CoQ10 is critical for the optimal function of the immune system because of its major role in the production of energy of the cells of immune system. Supplementation of CoQ10 has been shown to reverse these problems and significantly enhance the immune systems.
Not only have numerous investigators established the normal levels of CoQ10; they have identified what seems to be a direct correlation between the severity of heart failure and the correlating depletion of CoQ10. Significantly decreased amounts of CoQ10 have been noted in periodontal disease, cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Deficient levels of CoQ10 have been clearly established, however, in the blood levels of patients with congestive heart failure and cardiomyopathy.
CoQ10 deficiency can be the result of several conditions: a poor diet, impairment of the body’s ability to synthesize CoQ10 and/or the body’s excessive utilization of CoQ10.
