CalFitNut® Co-Enzyme Q10
Co-Q10, a complex organic compound also known as ubiquinone, is produced naturally in all plants and animals. It is an essential nutrient that supplies the biochemical “spark” that creates cellular energy.
Co-Q10, as with all enzymes consists of two parts—a protein and either a mineral or vitamin. When coupled with a vitamin, it is referred to as a co-enzyme. Co-Enzyme Q10 serves a catalyst in several chemical reactions that lead to the production of energy—in this case, ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate).
Overall Co-Q10 has been shown to:
- Help in fat loss programs as it helps stimulate the body’s metabolism
- Help in cell respiration, electron transfer, ATP production, control of oxidation reactions
- Play a key role in treatment of cardiovascular illnesses, including congestive heart failure.CO-Q10 and Statin Drugs
People taking statin drugs should consult with their physicians regarding the potential benefits of Co-Q10 supplementation as well as appropriate dosage.
