CoQ10 is an essential chemical needed by the cells for the production of energy. Low levels of it have been linked to various unfavorable health conditions.
CoQ10 is as an antioxidant. Antioxidants help protect the body from unstable molecules called free radicals. Free radicals can occur when the body is exposed to external pollutants or even when food is converted to energy. As these free radicals accumulate over time, the potential damage to the cells increases. The process, called oxidative stress, can lead to premature aging and a general decline of the immune and nervous systems. Author and researcher Lester Packer, Ph.D. suggests that coenzyme Q10 can be combined with antioxidants like vitamin C and E. He believes the coenzyme Q10 helps boost the antioxidant power of these vitamins.
Numerous studies have shown that CoQ10 appears to help with a variety of health conditions.
R-Garden’s CoQ-10 Formula contains 100 mg. of Coenzyme Q10 and Lipase, to improve delivery of the CoQ-10 to the cells, in a vegetarian capsule. Supplements provide a natural alternative to guard against coenzyme Q10 deficiencies and help neutralize cell-damaging free radicals that are believed to contribute to pre-mature aging and degenerative health conditions.
