Supplements COQ10 ResearchThe latest research shows that strenuous exercise may deplete your supply of Coenzyme Q10, causing fatigue. Athletes who supplemented with COQ10, for 8 days, showed improved performance and felt less fatigue, with those on the highest doses having the most energy and best endurance, regardless of their training intensity.
COQ10 is a vitamin-like substance that’s found naturally in all our organs. Adequate amounts of it are necessary for our muscles and vital organs to produce enough energy to function. COQ10 works in the mitochondria, the power houses of each of our cells, by carrying electrons the mitochondria needs to convert glucose into energy. Our bodies can only produce Coenzyme 10 when there’s enough vitamin B, C and folate available, so these are all necessary raw ingredients for energy at the cellular level.
COQ10 offers other powerful benefits besides producing energy. It calms inflammation. It helps reduce muscle cramping, especially for Statin users. It helps to reduce blood pressure. It helps us maintain a healthier and more youthful cardiovascular system and brain. Doctors have relied on it both for heart transplant patients waiting for donors, and to reduce Parkinson’s effects.
With no known side effects, and a long history of wide spread benefit, taking COQ10 seems like a no-brainer for athletes looking to re-energize and sustain intensity; for statin users or anybody else experiencing muscle cramps; for people with high blood pressure; or for anyone wanting to sustain a younger brain and healthier cardiovascular system.
