Coenzyme Q10 isn't something the marketing gurus made up to made skin creams look good.
It's actually an essential enzyme... so essential that if your body runs out, your heart will stop.
So what does CoQ10 do? The short answer is that it is an essential link in the chain that converts nutrients into energy in every cell in your body.
In each cell is something called a 'mitochondria'. Think of the mitochondria as the cell's engine (not strictly speaking true, but a reasonable simile). That engine needs fuel, and the CoQ10 helps convert the fuel into a form that the engine can use.
It also helps protect your cells against the exhaust of that engine too, facilitating the conversion of damaging waste products into something more benign.
Without CoQ10, the engine is starved of fuel and doesn't run efficiently. To compensate, the body appears to re-allocate its reserves of CoQ10 away from 'non essential' functions and into the heart, brain and immune system.
We're not certain, but this re-allocation might explain why we get aching muscles when we get the flu... as the body moves CoQ10 to the immune system to fight infection.
Our CoQ10 isn't a pill you swallow, it's a lozenge you suck. Clinical trials have shown that this form of delivery makes CoQ10 available to your body far more quickly than the traditional gelcaps.
