What is it?
FUNCTIONS: Coenzyme Q10 (or ubiquinone) is an important rate-limiting nutrient that is a
cofactor in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, the biochemical pathway
in cellular respiration from which adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and metabolic
energy is derived. Since nearly all cellular activities are dependent upon
energy, coenzyme Q10 is essential for the health of all human tissues and
organs. Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally-occurring antioxidant nutrient which retards
free radical formation in biological systems. Coenzyme Q10 resembles vitamin E
and vitamin K in chemical structure. Biochemically, it functions much like
vitamin E in that it participates in certain antioxidant and free radical
reactions. Healthy humans who consume a well-balanced diet have the ability to
synthesize coenzyme Q10. Unhealthy individuals, those on lipid lowering drugs
and those consuming an inadequate diet may not synthesize coenzyme Q10 in
sufficient quantity. According to Dr. Karl Folkers and other experts, humans can
biosynthesize coenzyme Q10 from tyrosine or phenylalanine and mevalonic acid,
which are small molecules abundant in the body. This is a complex biochemical
process that requires 15 separate steps and many enzymes, coenzymes, vitamins
and minerals. Only by such a process can the respiratory chain receive proper
levels of coenzyme Q10. Thus, the biosynthesis of coenzyme Q10 in the human body
requires a healthful diet – one that is high in vitamins, minerals, and other
nutrient factors. It has been shown by the NHANES studies that many Americans do
not have an adequate diet. Rather, their intake of most water soluble vitamins,
vitamin A and some minerals and trace elements is insufficient. Many of these
nutrients are essential for the biosynthesis of coenzyme Q10. In addition, it
has been shown that in disease states, nutrients from food sources may not
necessarily be absorbed or available. According to some experts, coenzyme Q10
should be considered an essential nutrient, as it is well established that
coenzyme Q10 is essential for the health of every cell in the human body.
Numerous studies indicate coenzyme Q10 also plays an important role in the
maintenance of the entire cardiovascular system. Supplementation with coenzyme
Q10 in patients has shown to be useful for the maintenance of already healthy
blood pressure. Coenzyme Q10 is also important for the maintenance of blood
vessels and heart muscle function. In addition, people taking statin drugs can
develop deficiencies in coenzyme Q10 and may require supplementation.Suggested Use
