Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like compound found in every cell of the body. It’s used by the mitochondria of cells to produce energy. CoQ10 is found in highest concentration in cells of organs that require large amounts of energy, such as your heart. While the body produces CoQ10 on its own, levels decline over time. A steady decrease may begin after age 30. Factors such as aging, genetics and cholesterol-lowering statins can lead to a CoQ10 deficiency. CoQ10 also provides antioxidant support. Antioxidants help protect cells from free radical damage, which can be generated during normal body processes (breathing and digestion) or upon exposure to environmental influences (UV sunlight and smoke). Free radicals attack healthy cells, damaging their membranes, DNA and other components, compromising normal cell function.
