CoQsol-CF is a patent pending formulation of
crystal-free Coenzyme Q10 in d-limonene oil. The formula also
includes mixed tocopherols. CoQ10 is a nutrient that supports
heart function and promotes energy production in cells. CoQ10
is a versatile antioxidant, which stabilizes cell membranes,
protecting them from free radical damage. CoQ10 can also
powerfully support immune function. *
CoQsol-CF provides the
well-known benefits of coenzyme Q10 in a formula designed for
enhanced bioavailability. CoQ10 is itself a highly unstable
molecule that is prone to crystallization upon exposure to heat,
light and air. Many CoQ10 products are, therefore, highly
crystallized. This crystallization process decreases absorption
and bioavailability of the CoQ10. CoQsol-CFä solves this
problem by providing crystal-free CoQ10 that is highly soluble
and has enhanced bioavailability. CoQsol-CFä also provides the
added antioxidant protection of mixed tocopherols. The end
result of using CoQsol-CFä is that more of the CoQ10 is actually
available for use by the body in performing its critical
functions.*
CoQsol-CF Boosts Cellular Energy
Production*
Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like nutrient
found in the human body. Essential to life, CoQ10 works at the
cellular level to produce energy for metabolism in the form of
ATP.*1,2 CoQ10 serves as a vital link in the "electron transport
chain," which is the final step in the production of ATP in the
mitochondria of cells.
Without an adequate supply of
CoQ10, cells can become energy-deficient, slowing down a number
of critical cellular processes. When cells are nourished with
optimal levels of CoQ10, tissues, organs and systems function
properly.
Strengthens and Protects the Heart*
The heart is the hardest working muscle in the body. Because of
its high energy requirements, the heart needs Co Q10 at all
times. The highest concentration of CoQ10 in the human body
occurs in heart muscle tissue. Numerous clinical studies have
demonstrated significant improvements in heart function with
oral administration of CoQ10.3,4,5 Studies are increasingly
showing an ability of CoQ10 to improve energy production in
heart cell mitochondria by bypassing defective components in the
respiratory chain, as well as to protect heart tissue from the
effects of chronic oxidative stress.14
Supports
Immune Function*
When the immune system goes into
battle for us, immune cells need large amounts of energy to
carry out their defensive functions. CoQ10 is required for this
energy to be available. Experimental research on animals has
shown that CoQ10 enhances immune functions such as the activity
of phagocytes, and antibody production.6
Antioxidant
protection*
CoQ10 is a versatile antioxidant.* The
reduced form of CoQ10, ubiquinol-10, has been found to protect
LDL against peroxidation by free radicals more effectively than
vitamin E.* CoQ10 stabilizes membranes,* thus protecting them
from free radical damage.7,8,9 In addition, studies have shown
that CoQ10’s potent free radical scavenging properties extend to
brain tissue, where CoQ10 may protect neurons from the ravages
of oxidative damage.13 Along with conferring protection to
heart and brain tissues, CoQ10 has also been shown to enhance
the levels of other antioxidant vitamins in the circulation,
such as vitamins, A, C and E.13
Benefits the
Gums*
A number of studies have shown that CoQ10
supports repair of gingival (gum) tissue. Gingival tissues in
people with periodontal disease have been found deficient in
CoQ10. In several double-blind clinical trials, oral
administration of CoQ10 has resulted in significant
improvements.10,11
CoQ10 – Vitamin E's
Partner
In vitro studies suggest CoQ10 in
combination with vitamin E protects LDL cholesterol from
oxidation more effectively than vitamin E alone. Protecting LDL
from being oxidized by free radicals is a major factor in
maintaining cardiovascular health.9,12
Diverse
clinical benefits*
A number of research studies and
clinical reports suggest a broad range of potential benefits
from CoQ10 supplementation, stemming from its ability to support
the heart and cardiovascular system, the immune system, cellular
energy production, liver function, nerves, and
muscles.*
