Coenzyme q10 popular as Coq 10 co enzyme


Coenzyme CoQ10

Coenzyme Q10 (?? Q10), vitamin Q10 and ubicinon are different names of one substance known in biochemistry from a very long time. Coenyme Q10 is a normal composition of the human body. It is synthesizes in the liver of all mammals and the most vertebral, it founds in plants in small amounts, too. The human liver produces only Coenzyme Q10.

The Coenzyme Q10 examines in the context of cells and outer- cells antioxidants, because they have similar effect upon free radicals. The antioxidants are a huge group of substances whose antioxidant effect is their main characteristic or appears according to their dose and way of appliance. Vitamins A, E, C, some microelements-selenium, zinc and other, the normal organism compositions- albumin, glucocorticoids and many others have strong antioxidant effect, which is used in the medicine from a log time. For distance Co Q10 possesses some specific features, theoretically and practically proofed.

The Q10 as a fat soluble substance penetrates without problem through the cell membranes, as its biochemical place is the mitochondrial oxidized-reduced chain, where plays a crucial role. The oxidized-reduced chain is the final and energetically most considerable stage of the aerobic catabolism. In the mitochondrial oxidized-reduced chain accomplishes gradual hydrogen and oxygen binding to the final product water. This process is a consecutively electron and proton transferring between two main enzyme groups and ubichinon takes intermediate place among them. Its function turns coenzyme Q10 in the limiting element in oxidized-reduced chain. The main result of oxidized-reduced chain is a macro-energetic compound development, namely adenosinethreephosphate, which is a universal energy source for every cell and almost for every biochemical energy dependent process. So the coenzyme Q10 deficiency will leads to decreased adenosinethreephosphate production and to different variable consequences.

The coenzyme Q10 – what is it ?

The coenzyme Q10 is a substance without, which the body cells could not produce energy. Its antioxidant effect is indirect in contrast to the direct antioxidants like vitamins E and C and beta-carotene, which bind already formed free radicals. Actually, both types of antioxidants are complemented to defense the cell. The Q10, however does not supply only with food, its can be synthesized by the organism. It is proved that after 20-th years, its quantity in cells gradually decreases, and its outgo at stress and huge load up growths, too. From the other side, Q10 synthesizes in the body from the tyrosine amino acid. The synthesis process has 17 stages, which are regulated by several enzyme systems and requires participation of seven vitamins: B2, ?3, ?5 (pantotenic acid), ?6, ?9 (folic acid), ?12, ? and other microelements!!! The ability of the body to fulfill the Q10 deficiency by the food is little, because its content in the regular foods, like meat, liver etc. is poor. These products are categorically contra-indicated for people with high blood cholesterol, ill from atherosclerosis and other metabolic diseases. Then the alternative is additional intake.

The scientists connect 62 diseases with the Q10 deficiency.

What is the coenzyme Q10 appliance ?

For prophylactic: it is very important for heart-vascular diseases (Q10 is so called “heart vitamin), and also for immune system strengthening and for general organism health.

In a complex healing: The investigations show its good influence and effectiveness at:

- ischemic heart disease and other heart-vascular diseases:

- at atherosclerosis

- hypertonic disease

- neurological diseases

- Hyper-function of thyroid gland

- parodontosis

- diabetes and liver and blood diseases

- slows up the aging process in the organism

- stimulates the immune system and organism adaptation reactions

- reduces the toxicity of antibiotics and anti-cancer preparations

Q10 is a fat soluble substance and that is why the different commercial forms have to be taken with fatty food.
