The essential nutrient Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)is a key component to energy production in the body and especially in the heart.   

Acting like an antioxidant, it is synthesized within the body naturally and used for important functions, such as supplying cells with energy, transporting electrons and regulating blood pressure levels.

 CoQ10 can slow down the effects of aging due to reduction of age-related increase in DNA damage that naturally affect us all. Anti-aging benefits of consuming more CoQ10 include protection of the heart against stress-related aging, protection of skeletal muscle minimizing bone and joint injury risk and improved fertility by the reversal of egg degradation and increased production of ATP.

Multiple clinical trials and case reports have found that CoQ10 may be a powerful natural method of treating fibromyalgia symptoms.

While the human body make some CoQ10, CoQ10 supplementation is useful for people who have low levels and/or can benefit from more.
