CoQ10

CoQ10 is a strong and potent antioxidant, which keeps the cells young and healthy by protecting the mitochondria and the cell membrane against free radicals and oxidative damage.
Mitochondria is the power house of the cells and generates energy in the form of ATP or Adenosine Tri-Phosphate from sugar and fat. Many of the degenerative symptoms of aging are referred to as mitochondrial disorders.
Aging has been associated with a reduced capacity for oxidative phosphorylation in the cells, most likely due to a decline in the mitochondria content and or function. Research has shown that in the muscle cells a poor capacity for oxidative metabolism is associated with Insulin Resistance and Type-2 diabetes. Recent studies further indicate that muscle mitochondria of patients with Type -2 diabetes are smaller, fewer in number and may also be less functional as compared to healthy people.
At the age of 25 our bodies produce 100% of the Trans isomer of CoQ10 required. As we age the natural production of CoQ10 dramatically declines. Since every cell requires CoQ10 for energy production, the result of CoQ10 deficiency can be seen in many symptoms associated with aging.
Statin drugs used for reducing Cholesterol in the circulation are HMG-CoA inhibitors.
HMG-CoA is similar to Co-enzyme Q 10 in structure. Statin drugs block the biosynthesis of CoQ10 in the liver. It is recommended that people who take Statin drugs should supplement with CoQ10.
CoQ10 has been shown to support a healthy Blood pressure.
