CoQ10
Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like compound also called ubiquinone. It is an essential component of cells and is utilized by the mitochondria in the normal process of energy production. It helps convert food into energy at a very basic, cellular level and it is an antioxidant. CoQ10 (Coenzyme Q10) is one in a series of ubiquinones, naturally occurring compounds produced in nearly every cell of the body, and was discovered as recently as 1957. BioSynergy uses only the 100% natural, all-trans form of CoQ10.
Doctors commonly prescribe CoQ10 (Coenzyme Q10) to treat heart disease in Japan, Sweden, Italy, Canada, and other countries.
Common Uses:
Improves the heart and circulation in those with congestive heart failure, a weakened heart muscle (cardiomyopathy), high blood pressure, heart rhythm disorders, chest pain (angina), or Raynaud's disease.
Increase cellular energy.
Boosts immune system function.
Support muscle tissue function.
May enhance physical performance.
Treats gum disease and maintains healthy gums and teeth.
Protects the nerves and may help slow Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease.
May help prevent cancer and heart disease, and play a role in slowing down age-related degenerative changes.
May improve the course of AIDS or cancer.
CoQ10 has shown small significant benefit in treating ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, and it has also been used to treat a range of rare pediatric neurological diseases.
Because any disease process that involves free radical damage could be treated with CoQ10, the theoretical therapeutic potential of this compound seems limitless. Cataracts, macular degeneration, side effects of chemotherapy and skin damage related to radiation exposure could all be helped by doses of CoQ10, proponents believe.
The primary function of CoQ10 (coenzyme Q10) is as a catalyst for metabolism - the complex chain of chemical reactions during which food is broken down into packets of energy that the body can use. Acting in conjunction with enzymes, the compound speeds up the vital metabolic process, providing the energy that the cells need to digest food, heal wounds, maintain healthy muscles, and perform countless other bodily functions. Because of the nutrient's essential role in energy production, it's not surprising that it is found in every cell in the body. It is especially abundant in the energy-intensive cells of the heart, helping this organ beat more than 100,000 times each day. In addition, coenzyme Q10 acts as an antioxidant, much like vitamins C and E, helping to neutralize the cell-damaging molecules known as free radicals.
CoQ10 may play a role in preventing cancer, heart attacks, and other diseases linked to free-radical damage. It's also used as a general energy enhancer and anti-aging supplement. Because levels of the compound diminish with age (and with certain diseases), some doctors recommend daily supplementation beginning about age 40.
CoQ10 has generated much excitement as a possible therapy for heart disease, especially congestive heart failure or a weakened heart. In some studies, patients with a poorly functioning heart have been found to improve greatly after adding the supplement to their conventional drugs and therapies. Other studies have shown that people with cardiovascular disease have low levels of this substance in their heart. Further research suggest that CoQ10 may protect against blood clots, lower high blood pressure, diminish irregular heartbeats, treat mitral valve prolapse, lessen symptoms of Raynaud's disease (poor circulation in the extremities), and relieve chest pains (angina).
A few small studies suggest that CoQ10 may prolong survival in those with breast or prostate cancer, though results remain inconclusive. It also appears to aid healing and reduce pain and bleeding in those with gum disease, and speed recovery following oral surgery. CoQ10 shows some promise against Parkinson's and Alzheimer's Diseases and fibromyalgia, and it may improve stamina in those with AIDS. Certain practitioners believe the nutrient helps stabilize blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. There are many other claims make for CoQ10 that it slows aging, aids weight loss, enhances athletic performance, combats chronic fatigue syndrome, relieves multiple allergies, and boosts immunity.
MELANOMA
2006 J. Am Acad Dermatol Feb;54(2):234-41
Low levels of plasma coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) are associated with an increased risk of melanoma metastasis, or spread to other locations in the body, according to a recent study from Rome, Italy.
Between 1997 and 2004, investigators enrolled 117 men and women with melanoma but without metastases. After 34 months of monitoring, patients with low plasma CoQ10 levels had a significant, eight fold higher risk of metastasis than patients with higher levels. Of the 82 patients with low CoQ10 levels, 17 died during the study, compared to none of the 35 patients with higher CoQ10.
Plasma CoQ10 level may become a new prognostic factor for estimating the risk of melanoma progression. Further studies are needed to determine whether CoQ10 supplementation may improve outcomes in people with melanoma.
Vitamin E and Mixed Tocopherols
The popular antioxidant vitamin E is included in this formula both to help stabalize the CoQ10 and because it is very good at scavenging artery-damaging radicals. Tocopherols are added because they enhance the biological function of CoQ10.
d-Limonene
d-Limonene is an oil found in more than 30 species of fruits and vegetables, especially in citrus oils. This all natural essential oil was chosen to be in BioSynergy's CoQ10 100 mg formulation for its solubilizing properties. d-Limonene protects the CoQ10 against crystalization making it more bioavailable. Recently, d-Limonene has become a potential candidate for a variety of medical applications because of its reported use as a chemoprotective agent in experimental animal models. Several dietary supplements have been introduced to the natural products industry that contain d-Limonene, to address a variety of health concerns.
Recommended daily use: As a dietary supplement, take 1 softgel 1 to 4 times daily with meals.
