Coenzyme Q10 Provides More Energy and the Nutrition Your Body Deserves |

Energy and COQ10 Every day, the some 100 trillion cells in the body work hard. They ingest and digest nutrients, remove waste, and reproduce. Healthy cells provide the energy that ensures that we wake up in the morning, get to work, enjoy different types of recreation, and make it to bed at night. To perform all the tasks that they must, cells create their own energy. The production of energy at the cellular level is commonly known as bioenergetics. Considering how active the human body is-remember that an average person uses 60 percent of his or her daily energy on base metabolism-we can see how important bioenergetics is. Bioenergetics is dependent on food because cells manufacture their own energy by burning the substances found in foods. To do this, the foods we eat are broken down into smaller and smaller components, most of which are absorbed by the body. Some of these components, after a series of chemical reactions, are converted into a substance called adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the body's major form of stored energy. All cellular function requires an adequate supply of ATP. Without ATP, the body would not have enough energy to perform its millions of everyday tasks-including such basic tasks as respiration and digestion-not to mention the energy for such things as dancing, cycling, or golfing. You can see, then, that it is important that our bodies have the most efficient means possible to produce this valuable substance. Coenzyme Q10 is a key in the formation of ATP; if we are lacking in coenzyme Q10, we cannot produce ATP efficiently. Coenzyme Q10 acts as a , carrying important, energy-laden electrons and protons around the cell, to eventually be turned into ATP. Without this , ATP would not be created, and cells would not be able to create the energy needed for both everyday energy and special energy needs. According to a 1990 article in the American Journal of Cardiology, "Coenzyme Q10 is necessary for the mitochondria [components of cells] to perform their functions and is essential for human life." What are the implications of bioenergetics and coenzyme Q10 for health? As stated, all of our cells must produce energy for us to stay alive, and coenzyme Q10 is an essential part of this energy production. It is thus logical that a deficiency in coenzyme Q10 in any of the body's cells would affect body functions. Many studies have shown that people suffering from different forms of heart disease are deficient in coenzyme Q10. This makes sense, as congestive heart failure results from the inability of the heart to generate the energy and strength necessary to maintain circulation. There are also studies on the effect of coenzyme Q10 on the gums, on the immune system, and as an antioxidant.
