The heart is one of the most active tissues in the body that requires an adequate supply of CoQ10 for heart health. CoEnzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also known as Ubiquinone, is produced naturally in the body as a powerful antioxidant and free radical scavenger. A high concentration of Q10 is found in human heart, kidney and liver, which plays an essential role in the production of energy in cells. Q10 also acts as an antioxidant to protect cell membranes from free radical damage, and strengthen the body’s antioxidant protection.

Supplementation of CoQ10 may help to support cardiovascular health, energy levels and assist recovery following exercise. There may be an increased need for supplemental co-enzyme Q10 in the elderly due to the body's ability to synthesise CoQ10 decreasing with age.
