COQ10 Capsules

Although CoQ10 plays a key role in the body, most healthy people have enough CoQ10 naturally.

CoQ10 has been used to treat many different conditions. There's evidence that CoQ10 supplements can lower blood pressure slightly.

Though still controversial, some preliminary evidence suggests that CoQ10 may help prevent or treat the adverse effects, such as muscle pains and liver problems, of taking statin-type cholesterol drugs.

Preliminary studies show that CoQ10 may slow, but not stop, the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Additional research is needed to confirm this effect.

CoQ10 has also been studied as a preventive treatment for migraine headaches, though it may take several months to work. It has also been studied for low sperm count, cancer, HIV, muscular dystrophy, Parkinson’s disease, gum disease, and many other conditions. However, research has not found any conclusive benefits. Although CoQ10 is sometimes sold as an energy supplement, there's no evidence that it boosts energy in a typical person.

Benefits also may include:

Heart health. Risk factors for heart failure, such as high blood pressure and coronary heart disease, often lead to oxidative stress and cell damage. Studies show that CoQ10 can improve symptoms and reduce the risk of heart-related complications. It may also reduce the risk of heart disease and high blood pressure.

Brain health. CoQ10 may reduce harmful compounds that could increase your risk of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. In turn, this could slow disease progression.
