This nutrient, also known as ubiquinone, is found in every cell in the body. It acts like an energy spark plug in cells, and may provide significant antioxidant protection at a cellular level while also enhancing the body’s innate energy production. It achieves this because it’s an essential component of mitochondria and a cofactor in the electron transport chain which is the biological pathway in cellular respiration from which ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is created. ATP is an energy-rich compound used for all energy-requiring processes within a cell. Although CoEnzyme Q-10 is synthesized by the body deficiencies still exist and requirements increase with and with certain health challenges.
