Co Enzyme Q10, more commonly referred to as CoQ10, is found in almost every cell in the body. The role of CoQ10 in producing energy in the mitochondria explains the improved performance and time to exhaustion seen in research trials. If you’re trying to extend and improve your training sessions, CoQ10 can be of benefit. CoQ10 also has a whole host of health benefits too, making it a top seller in health food shops. Co Enzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an extremely powerful antioxidant that helps to protect the body from free radicals.

Where to find Co Enzyme Q10: Co Enzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is found in almost every single human cell, hence why it is also known as ‘ubiquinone’. In our diets we mainly consume CoQ10 from fish and meat, but only in relatively low amounts. Co Enzyme Q10 is also known as: Coenzyme Q10, Co-Enzyme Q10, CoQ10, Ubiquinone, CQ10, Co Q10, Q10, CoEnzyme Q 10, COEnzyme, Co Q-10. IMPROVE ENDURANCE Co Enzyme Q10 is a very popular supplement amongst endurance athletes such as long-distance runners, triathletes, and cyclists. It is also commonly used by footballers and rugby players who need explosive energy over long periods of time.

The reason for its use is that Co Enzyme Q10 effectively increases the transport of oxygen into blood cells. This results in the user being able to run faster or train harder, for longer. In fact, a recent study carried out on cross-country skiers found that those who supplemented with CoQ10, displayed aerobic fitness gains that were over three times that of the subjects who did not. IMPROVE RECOVERY In the above study carried out on cross-country skiers, it was shown that those who supplemented with CoEnzyme Q10 did not suffer from overtraining. The skiers themselves said that they felt the CoQ10 supplementation was beneficial, with over 70% stating that using Co Enzyme Q10 had a “clear positive effect (on) their exercise performance and recovery time”. CoQ10 is a powerful antioxidant and significantly reduces the oxidation of cholesterol. It plays a vital role in our immune system and its high concentration in the heart means that it is vital to our survival, as without it we would be unable to produce enough energy to live. Co Enzyme Q10 is also currently used in the treatment of many diseases such as Parkinson’s, heart disease and high blood pressure
