About Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold 100mg 60 Capsules
Pharmanord's Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold is recommended by Dr Chris Steele. Q10 is vital for energy and may help control cholesterol in the same way as statins WITHOUT the tiredness associated with statins.
What Does Dr Chris Steele say about Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold?
Dr Chris Steele recommends Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold. He says:
"I've taken Bio-Quinone Q10 for years. Q10 is vital for energy production and as you get older it becomes very important to top it up if you want to feel younger and keep active for longer. Lots of people also take statins to control cholesterol, but they can drain you of Q10. If you are complaining of tiredness you may need a Q10 supplement"
Each capsule of Pharma-Nord Bio-Quinone Q10 contains coenzyme Q10 in a highly absorbable form utilising palm oil for the delivery system which is GMO free and generated from sustainable sources.
What is Coenzyme Q10?
Coenzyme Q10 (also known as ubiqinone) is a vitamin like substance which plays a vital role in the bodys energy supply mechanism, acting in conjunction with enzymes (hence the name coenzyme Q10) to convert sugars and fat into energy.
Coenzyme Q10 is also important as an antioxidant within the body. Coenzyme quinones occur in several chemical forms, with coenzyme Q10 being the only form found in human tissues.
The human body is able to synthesize (in the liver) a limited amount of coenzyme Q10, with the remainder being obtained from the diet.
Rich sources of coenzyme Q10 include fish (mackerel, salmon, sardines) and nuts. Under normal circumstances, the body is able to maintain adequate levels of coenzyme Q10. However, coenzyme Q10 levels decrease with age, and are depleted by intense physical exercise or illness. Coenzyme Q10 levels are also depleted in patients prescribed cholesterol-lowering statin drugs.
What does Bio-Quinone Q10 Do Exactly?
Coenzyme Q10 is an essential cofactor of enzymes involved in the energy production process. Coenzyme Q10 is stored in mitochondria, structures found within cells responsible for the generation of energy (in the form of a molecule called ATP). Tissues with a high-energy requirement (heart, liver, skeletal muscles) contain higher numbers of mitochondria within their cells.
Coenzyme Q10 is also important within the body as a major fat-soluble antioxidant, protecting cell membranes from the damaging effects of free radicals, in a complementary manner to vitamin E.
Coenzyme Q10 promotes healthy cardiovascular function, and healthy immune function (cells involved in immune response have a high energy dependence).
How Much Q10 Can I Take A Day?
Recommended intake is between 30 and 200mg a day of coenzyme Q10 - should be taken with meals to increase absorption.
Are There Any Reported Side Effects from Taking Coenzyme Q10?
Coenzyme Q10 is generally well tolerated, with no serious adverse effects reported in long term use. Very rarely, individuals may experience gastrointestinal disturbance. There are no known toxic effects, and coenzyme Q10 cannot be overdosed. Coenzyme Q10 is not recommended for pregnant or lactating women, in whom the effects of coenzyme Q10 have not been extensively studied. No significant interference of coenzyme Q10 with other drugs has been reported.
