CoQ10 30mg, 60 EMBO-Caps

Support for energy production in the cells and for health

The body can produce energy. This is important for life and well-being. Every cell needs a constant supply of energy. This energy is essential for the cells to carry out their functions. An important component in this process is coenzyme Q10. It is a substance that acts like a vitamin. It is important for energy production in the body.

• It helps to support normal energy production in the body.
• Bioidentical in its entire structure.
• It helps to protect the cells from harmful stress. The glass packaging contains an oxygen absorber. This ensures optimal protection.
• No additives
  

What is coenzyme Q10?

Coenzyme Q10 is a substance found naturally in the body. It helps with energy production in the cells. Coenzyme Q10 is important for health. It can also be taken as a dietary supplement. Many people use it to boost their energy levels and Many people use it to boost their energy levels and improve their health. Coenzyme Q10 is fat-soluble. It is found in almost all human cells. The name comes from the Latin word ‘ubique’. This word means ‘everywhere’. It indicates that something is widespread throughout the body. The body produces CoQ10 itself. It can also absorb CoQ10 from food .

Coenzyme Q10 exists in two forms

One form is called ubiquinone. This is the oxidised form. The other form is called ubiquinol. This is the reduced form. These two forms are like two sides of a coin. The body constantly converts between them. It does this depending on which function is currently most important. Ubiquinone primarily helps with energy production in the mitochondria. Ubiquinol protects the cells. It acts mainly as an antioxidant. It prevents damage to the cells.
As we age, or when we exercise a lot, the body may produce less CoQ10. At such times, it can be beneficial to take coenzyme Q10. It helps to support energy metabolism. It also ensures that the mitochondria function properly.

The important role in energy production

Coenzyme Q10 plays a vital role. It helps to generate energy in the mitochondria. Every cell contains specialised structures. These structures function like tiny power stations.
An important process takes place in the mitochondria. CoQ10 acts like a worker transporting something. It carries energy particles, called electrons, from one place to another. You could compare it to a courier. The courier takes documents from one desk to another in an office.
ATP is an important molecule. It provides energy for cells. Cells need this energy for many processes. ATP is produced in the mitochondria. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell. They convert food into energy. This energy is then stored as ATP. ATP helps the cells to function. It is essential for life.
This transport process creates a difference in energy across the mitochondrial membrane. It is similar to water backing up behind a dam. This difference in energy assists a specific enzyme. This enzyme converts the energy from food into ATP. ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate.

Scientifically proven effects

CoQ10 is important for energy production in the body. This has been scientifically proven. In a study involving two groups, ubiquinol was tested. The participants were healthy. One group was given ubiquinol. The other group was given a placebo. There was a positive correlation between blood ubiquinol levels and relaxation as well as motivation. CoQ10 aids energy production in the body. [Mizuno, K., et al. (2020). Ubiquinol-10 Intake Is Effective in Relieving Mild Fatigue in Healthy Individuals.]

• The ability to combat free radicals increases
• It helps with recovery after physical exertion.
• It helps athletes perform better.
• It benefits older people.

Optimising mitochondrial efficiency

Coenzyme Q10 helps to improve the function of mitochondria in cells. It is similar to power stations in a city. The more power stations there are, the more energy is produced. Proper mitochondrial function is important for energy metabolism. This is particularly true for older people and during intense physical exertion.

Antioxidant properties protect the mitochondria

Coenzyme Q10 is important for energy production. It also protects the body. The body constantly converts ubiquinone into ubiquinol. Ubiquinol helps protect against harmful substances. This new form protects the cell membranes. In particular, it protects the mitochondrial membranes. It protects against harmful molecules. These molecules are free radicals. Free radicals are produced during the production of ATP. ATP is an important source of energy for the cell.

Free radicals are like waste products from a factory. They are produced when the body generates energy. If they are not controlled, they can damage the mitochondria. Mitochondria are important parts of cells. They help to produce energy. Coenzyme Q10 converts ubiquinone into ubiquinol. It then neutralises these active molecules. In this way, coenzyme Q10 helps to protect energy production in the cells and keep it efficient.
