Boost Energy And Protect The Heart w/ D-Ribose,Carnitine,Coenzyme Q10, Magnesium -
The Awesome Foursome: Coenzyme Q10,
L-Carnitine,
D-Ribose, Magnesium
The
“Awesome Foursome” of Coenzyme Q10, L-Carnitine, D-Ribose, and magnesium helps
our hearts metabolize energy more efficiently and protects them from the stress
of cardiovascular disease. This powerful
combination of nutrients goes directly to the basic biochemistry of cellular
energy metabolism. Now let’s take a
closer look at how Coenzyme Q10, L-Carnitine, D-Ribose, and magnesium work in
synergy to promote cardiovascular health.
Coenzyme Q10:
Energy Recycling
through the Electron Transport Chain
Coenzyme Q10 is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect
the mitochondrial membrane, mitochondrial DNA, and cell walls from free-radical
attack. But its most important function
in the body is its central role in energy metabolism.
Most –
about 90 percent – of the ATP used by cells is recycled as food (fuel) and
oxidized in the mitochondria. Fatty
acids, carbohydrates, and, occasionally, proteins are carried across the
mitochondrial membrane and enter the Krebs’ cycle, moving from step to step and
spinning off electrons. These electrons
are then handed off to the electron transport chain, where, in the presence of
oxygen, the energy from the electrons is captured as a phosphate group is added
to ADP to form ATP. This recycling of
ATP is called oxidative phosphorylation, and the by-products of these pathways
are CO2 and water.
In this
fashion, Coenzyme Q10 acts as a gatekeeper of electrons, making sure they are
carried to just the right place to pass on their life-giving energy.
What is
critical, however, is the simple fact that without Coenzyme Q10 the electron
transport chain would totally break down.
And since the electron transport chain is (by far!) the largest
contributor to cellular energy turnover, its loss would be catastrophic. It is also important to know that t ...
