Coenzyme Q10 (Ubidecarenone): Cellular Energy & Heart Health
Coenzyme Q10, which scientists refer to as Ubidecarenone, serves as an essential fat-soluble substance that exists in every human body cell. The substance functions as a “cellular spark plug” because it enables mitochondria, which serve as the cell’s energy production centers, to create adenosine triphosphate. The body produces CoQ10 through natural processes, but various health conditions and aging and statin medications which lower cholesterol will lead to major drops in CoQ10 production. The body needs these supplements to bring back normal levels of the substance which organs require to produce energy, especially in the heart, liver, and kidney.

The Energy & Defense Duo
works through two distinct biological mechanisms which operate together to achieve their goals. Ubidecarenone exists as a biological substance which operates through two main pathways of biological functions.

  • Bioenergetics: It is an essential cofactor in the Electron Transport Chain, facilitating the conversion of nutrients into usable cellular energy.
  • Antioxidant Protection: It acts as a potent lipid-phase antioxidant, protecting cell membranes and DNA from oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
