CoQ10 has been shown to help improve heart health and blood sugar regulation, assist in the prevention and treatment of cancer and reduce the frequency of migraines. It could also reduce the oxidative damage that leads to muscle fatigue, skin damage and brain and lung diseases.

Studies have found that supplements of CoQ10 can help improve sperm movement in infertile men. According to some research, the amount of CoQ10 in the seminal fluid of men has a correlation to their sperm count and sperm motility.

Coenzyme Q-10, aka Co Q 10, also known as ubiquinone, is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like compound that naturally occurs in most cells of the body. 

Co Q-10 is needed for the basic function of cells and is the source of energy for the mitochondria. Mitochondria are the organelles inside cells that generate energy for the cell in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary source of energy in human physiology. Co Q 10 functions as a lipid-soluble antioxidant, providing protection against free radical damage within mitochondria.

Co Q-10 is formulated with the help of an amino acid “tyrosine” and vitamin B6, but also is found in meats (especially organ meats), sesame oil, soybeans, nuts and beans. As who hit their mid-20s, their level begins to decrease as well as the ability to absorb the antioxidant. Although Co Q-10 is kind of new in regard to public knowledge, research on this amazing antioxidant has been steady over the last 60 years.

It is well known that the chances for women conceiving begin to decline around the age of thirty. It is felt that the major reason for this phenomenon is a decline in oocyte quality, probably on the basis of chromosomal abnormalities. This is thought to be the cause of increasing miscarriages and increasing risks of having babies with Down’s syndrome.
