COQ10 100 MG WITH HAWTHORN BERRY VEG CAPSULES
Coenzyme Q10 is also known as ubiquinone or ubidecarenone. It is a fat-soluble substance present in most eukaryotic cells and is mainly found in mitochondria. It is a component involved in the electron transport chain, aerobic cellular respiration and energy production in the form of ATP.
95% of the human body’s energy is created in this way. Coenzyme Q10 has antioxidant activity, since it acts as an energy carrier and is continuously transformed by redox from ubiquinone (oxidized form) to ubiquinol (reduced form). Thus, coenzyme Q10 provides protection against oxidation in lipids, proteins, mitochondrial DNA and LDL cholesterol. It also helps regenerate other antioxidants, such as vitamin E.

Coenzyme Q10 appears to have a neuroprotective role and is used in high doses as a component that slows the progression of Parkinson’s disease and motor neurone disease. It is also thought to help repair DNA in people with Down’s syndrome, preventing neurodegeneration leading to early Alzheimer’s dementia.

NOW’s CoQ10 100 mg is enhanced with Hawthorn Berry extract. Hawthorn Berry is being studied for its ability to increase endurance in patients with type II heart failure. The majority of research studies have demonstrated improvement in clinical symptoms (e.g. fatigue, palpitations, breathlessness during exercise), increased performance and endurance.

NOW uses only the natural, 100% all-trans form of CoQ10, which is produced by natural fermentation. This is considered to be the highest quality and most bioavailable form.

RECOMMENDED DOSAGE
