Coenzyme Q10 or ubiquinone is a vitamin-like substance found in the mitochondria of all human body cells. Mitochondria are cellular organelles located in the cytoplasm of all cells, with the primary functional role of producing energy from the nutrients in food.
The highest levels of Q10 are detected in tissues with high energy demands, such as:
- Heart muscle
- Muscle tissue
- Liver
Additionally, low levels of Q10 are associated with periodontitis and heart disease. Individuals with obesity or a history of heart disease usually exhibit low levels of Q10.
CoQ10 is found in foods, mainly in meat, but the cooking process can destroy it. The production of Q10 in the body decreases with age, which may contribute to a lack of energy in the elderly.
The absorption of Q10 is important, and Lamberts' Q10 is available in an oil-based form, as recommended by the researchers who discovered it.
