Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an antioxidant that is necessary for cells to function properly. Cells use CoQ10 to make the energy that they need to grow and stay healthy. CoQ10 can be found in highest amounts in the heart, liver, kidneys, and pancreas. The level of CoQ10 decreases as we grow old. Coenzyme Q10's wide-ranging cellular properties implicate it for the potential treatment of numerous conditions that may improve with mitochondrial and antioxidant support. Additionally, Coenzyme Q10 has demonstrated activity in preventing lipid peroxidation as an antioxidant scavenger and an indirect stabiliser of calcium channels to decrease calcium overload.
