CoQ10 is an extremely important nutrient that every cell in your body must have in order to produce energy. If you think of the cell as a little engine, which uses oxygen to burn the fuel that comes from food, you may think of CoQ10 as the sparkplug that drives this process. CoQ10 is present in most tissues, but the highest concentrations are found in the heart, liver, kidneys and pancreas and those levels decrease as people age, due to increased requirements, decreased production, or insufficient intake of the materials needed for the body to make it. CoQ10 has been used successfully for vascular disease, protection of the heart from the damaging effects of drugs such as Adriamycin, periodontal disease, immune disorders such as AIDS, and most recently cell regeneration.
