Doctor's Best, High Absorption CoQ10 with BioPerine is a breakthrough dietary supplement containing coenzyme Q10 - a substance essential for energy production processes in the mitochondria. The supplement protects the cardiovascular system, improves muscle performance, and reduces symptoms of fatigue. The preparation is enriched with BioPerine® black pepper extract, which further facilitates its absorption and increases its assimilability.
The product is recommended for active exercisers, athletes, people over 30 years of age and those with cardiovascular disorders and thyroid diseases. In addition, the product is recommended to all those who are exposed to frequent or prolonged stress.
Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring substance in the body. This compound participates in mitochondrial electron transport in the respiratory chain. In addition, coenzyme Q10 is one of the most important antioxidants. It counteracts the formation of free radicals and prevents oxidative transformations of proteins, fats and DNA. It is found primarily in mitochondria, the Golgi apparatus, the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes and peroxisomes.
Under physiological conditions, the production of coenzyme Q10 in the body is sufficient, but there are many factors that interfere with this process. It has been shown that in disease states, situations of severe stress, cold exposure, physical activity and as a result of thyroid hormones, the synthesis of coenzyme Q10 in the body is impaired. The presence of vitamin B2, B6, B12, folic acid and pantothenic acid is also required for the proper synthesis of coenzyme Q10.
Elderly people, people doing regular and intensive physical work, and people suffering from hyperthyroidism, heart failure, muscle, nervous system and liver diseases, among others, are at risk of coenzyme Q10 deficiency. Insufficient supply of coenzyme Q10 together with food can also be a cause of deficiency.
Symptoms of coenzyme Q10 deficiency manifest themselves mainly in the appearance of features of chronic fatigue syndrome - recurrent feelings of fatigue, memory impairment, impaired concentration, decreased performance, excessive sleepiness or problems sleeping. Depending on which organs are most affected by the deficiency, symptoms can vary.
Coenzyme Q10 increases mitochondrial activity and participates in the synthesis of ATP, which is the primary source of energy for cells. This compound acts as an electron transporter and influences the production of the so-called protonomotive force, which makes ATP formation possible. Therefore, coenzyme Q10 deficiency can cause a feeling of constant fatigue and a decrease in both mental and physical performance.
Coenzyme Q10 stabilizes cell membranes. This is done through its interaction with proteins present in the cell membrane. As a result of this action, the sodium-potassium pump (Na+/K+ ATP-ase) functions properly, and the cell membrane is more resistant to external factors that can disrupt its function.
Coenzyme Q10 has the ability to reduce blood viscosity and dilate blood vessels, thus improving blood flow to the heart muscle. In addition, it counteracts hyperglycemia, endothelial cell apoptosis and monocyte adhesion, which is important in the prevention of atherosclerosis.
It has been observed that low levels of coenzyme Q10 can negatively affect sperm motility and cause asthenozoospermia. Coenzyme Q10 affects sperm quality and plays an important role in the production of energy needed for proper sperm function. Excess free radicals contribute to the peroxidation of lipids contained in sperm membranes, while coenzyme Q10, due to its strong antioxidant properties, inhibits this process.
Coenzyme Q10 not only has strong antioxidant properties by itself, but also contributes to the regeneration of another antioxidant - vitamin E. This compound enables the conversion of vitamin E into an active reduced form. The action of this vitamin is therefore dependent on the presence of coenzyme Q10.
In conclusion, Doctor's Best, High Absorption CoQ10 with BioPerine is a dietary supplement that, thanks to the content of the mitochondrial substance coenzyme Q10, actively supports the production of energy necessary for the proper course of all processes in the body and effectively protects against the toxic effects of excess oxygen free radicals.
