What is Q10?
Co-Enzyme Q10 is a key co-enzyme found in every cell of our body. It is involved primarily in energy production and may help promote optimal heat function, blood pressure levels and may even boost your immune system. Small amounts of Q10 can be found in Sardines, Mackerel, Pork, Spinach, Soya Oil, Sesame seeds and walnuts. The amount of Q10 in our body declines with age and it may help to supplement with Q10 to ensure an adequate level.
Professor Fred Krane, the American scientist, who discovered Q10 in 1957, recommends Bio-Quinone Q10 because of its superior levels of absorption in the body.
The above graph shows that the best levels of absorption in the body
are obtained through dissolving Q10 in a patented Soya oil formulation
presented in soft gelatine capsules (like Bio-Quinone Q10)
Why Take Q10?
- For a healthy heart
- For healthy gums
- For healthy energy levels
- For a healthy immune system
Heart Function
Q10 is particularly important to help maintain the efficient functioning of the heart.
Q10 and Statins
Statins are cholesterol lowering drugs, some of which are now available without prescription. Statins can be very effective medication, by blocking the body's ability
to make LDL (bad) cholesterol but, at the same time, they disrupt the body's production of Co-Enzyme Q10.
Lack of Q10 can also cause extreme tiredness, muscle weakness and gum disease.
For people on cholesterol lowering medication, supplementation with co-enzyme Q10 is strongly recommended.

Healthy Gums
The concentration of Q10 in the gums has been shown to be lower in people with periodontitis (gum disease) or whatever there is a risk of infected or bleeding gums. Supplementation with Q10 may help reduce the numbers of unhealthy micro-organisms in the mouth as well as raise levels of Q10.
Energy
Co-Enzyme Q10 is found in the mitochondria (energy factory) of each cell and is involved in the electron transfer chain - a process by which our food is turned
into energy. It's role is similar to that of a spark in a car engine, just as the car cannot function without that initial spark, the human body cannot function without
co-enzyme Q10.
However, Mitochondria are not always able to function optimally to produce energy. One factor which may be responsible is lack of Q10. This can cause tiredness and lack
of sleep. Elderly people, in particular, are advised to supplement as levels of Q10 decline with age.
Immune System
Q10 also has antioxidant properties protecting from free radical damage.
What are free radicals?
Free radicals are harmful, aggressive molecules that attack our body cells. Environmental pollution, stress, tobacco, ultraviolet light, etc.., form free radicals.
Unless we have sufficient amounts of antioxidants to intercept and neutralise the excess free radicals in our body our cells begin to deteriorate.
