DID YOU KNOW COQ10 HELPS SUPPORT ENERGY PRODUCTION & COGNITIVE FUNCTION?
CoQ10, also known as ubiquinone, is a vitamin-like substance that’s found in every cell of the body. It helps generate energy in the mitochondria—the tiny power plants inside our cells. CoQ10 is also important for brain health because it helps protect the brain from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. The mitochondria produce these highly reactive chemicals when they burn fuel to create energy. Oxidative damage can lead to cell death and loss of function which may contribute to age-related decline in cognitive function. CoQ10 is also an antioxidant that can help reduce inflammation by protecting against oxidative stress. It’s important for cardiovascular health because it helps protect against heart disease and high blood pressure.
