Co-Enzyme Q10
Our 100 mg capsule size product is the New Super Absorbable CoQ10 with d-Limonene which significantly increases the amount of CoQ10 absorbed. D-limonene is a natural compound in orange oil which breaks down and disperses CoQ10 particles, reducing their size and improving absorption. Research shows that people taking this formula have higher blood levels of CoQ10 than those taking other formulations.*
Imagine each cell in your body is a tiny engine. This engine uses oxygen to burn the fuels which come from foods. CoQ10 is part of the engine that provides the "spark" for this process. No other substance will substitute for CoQ10. Without CoQ10 there is no spark & therefore no production of energy.*
CoQ10 is found in all food but is easily destroyed by cooking. Highest sources are rice bran, wheat germ, soy & some beans. Most people don't get enough dietary CoQ10. Your liver can also produce CoQ10 through a complex process requiring the presence of a large number of co-factors & 3 different classes of starting molecules.*
CoQ10 is also known as ubiquinone, a lipid soluble quinone present in every cell in your body. There it facilitates electron transfer for the production of ATP (usable energy) from carbohydrate & fat metabolism. Your heart muscle has the highest concentration in the body. The benefits of C0Q10 to the heart & cardiovascular system have been extensively documented. There are over 300 published papers on the disease-preventing roles of CoQ10.*
