CoQ10 is a lipid structure with vitamin activity. CoQ10 is a coenzyme produced by the human body known as ubiquinone, from the name quinine which is a coenzyme and the name ubiquitous, meaning that it is everywhere in the body.
The highest concentration of CoQ10 is found in the heart and liver tissue. It plays a very important role in the body in the production of energy in the mitochondria and, consequently, in the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates, as well as in maintaining the elasticity of the cell membrane. It also participates in the production of (ATP).
Beyond its contribution to energy production, Q10 supports the healthy functioning of the cardiovascular and immune systems. Additionally, it is an effective fat-soluble antioxidant that provides significant protection to the structure of vessels and other tissues from the attack of free radicals. Q10 also contributes to the maintenance of healthy intracellular activity, comparing its effectiveness with that of vitamin E.
NOW's CoQ10 200 mg is 100% all-trans and produced by natural fermentation. This is considered to be a higher quality and more bioavailable form. Differences in the absorption or use of CoQ10 products, for the most part, are directly related to the oils added to the CoQ10 during the production of the soft capsule.
