Co-enzyme Q10

Coenzyme Q10 is a natural substance produced by the body and belongs to a family of compounds called quinones. In fact, coenzyme Q10 is found in all living creatures and is also concentrated in many foods, including nuts and oils. The primary function of coenzyme Q10 is as a catalyst for metabolism the complex chain of chemical reactions during which food is broken down into packets of energy that the body can use. Acting in conjunction with enzymes, the compound speeds up the vital metabolic process, providing the energy that the cells need to digest food, heal wounds, maintain healthy muscles and perform countless other bodily functions. Coenzyme Q10 may play a role in preventing heart attacks and other diseases linked to free-radical damage. It is also used as a general energy enhancer and anti-aging supplement.
