Products:
Coenzyme Q10 for Cardiovascular Health
CoQ10 supports cardiovascular health by enhancing blood vessel function, reducing oxidative stress, and contributing to the maintenance of healthy blood pressure. It also improves circulation and increases the heart’s energy production, which may help lower the risk of cardiovascular issues.¹
Coenzyme Q10 and Energy Production
It is also essential for energy production, helping generate ATP within mitochondria—the cells’ energy factories—which can boost energy levels, reduce fatigue, and enhance physical performance.²
Coenzyme Q10's Impact on Metabolic Health
CoQ10 also supports metabolic health by enhancing blood sugar regulation, increasing insulin sensitivity, and promoting fat metabolism, thereby contributing to overall metabolic balance.³
Coenzyme Q10 for Skin Health
Potentially benefitting the skin, CoQ10 protects against oxidative damage, stimulates collagen production, and helps reduce wrinkles and fine lines, supporting a more youthful complexion.⁴
Coenzyme Q10 for Headaches
CoQ10 may also alleviate headaches, particularly migraines, by enhancing mitochondrial function and increasing blood flow to the brain, as well as reducing inflammation associated with headache pain.⁵
