Coenzyme Q10 - the fuel for your cells
Coenzyme Q10 is essential for our well‑being, because the body produces it to ensure the oxygen supply required for energy production in the cells. It is therefore found throughout the body, especially in organs that require a lot of energy such as the heart, lungs and liver. As a biocatalyst, the coenzyme supports the activity of numerous enzymes needed for vital processes.
Vegan quality from Germany
The high‑dose Coenzyme Q10 capsules from Unimedica are manufactured in Germany. This Q10 contains more than 97% ubiquinone. The raw material is obtained by plant fermentation. Therefore Unimedica's Coenzyme Q10 capsules are also suitable for a vegan diet.
How does coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) work?
Ubiquinone exists in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. There it is involved in generating the majority of cellular energy (adenosine triphosphate, ATP). The coenzyme acts as an electron and proton carrier along the electron transport chain (various biochemical reactions) that converts energy from nutrients into a form the cell can use.
What are alternative Q10 sources and why are Q10 capsules recommended?
Although the body is able to produce coenzyme Q10 itself, its production may decrease with age. Coenzyme Q10 is also present in some foods such as meat, poultry, oily fish, nuts, soya beans, spinach and broccoli.
However, it is often difficult to obtain sufficient amounts of coenzyme Q10 from food alone, because the content in foods is relatively low. A single Unimedica Q10 capsule contains 200 mg ubiquinone. Therefore supplementing a balanced diet with Q10 capsules may be advisable.
Each jar of Coenzyme Q10 contains 120 capsules. The value pack therefore corresponds to an eight‑month supply.
