Why you need to supplement CoQ10 as you age

Co-enzyme Q10 is an antioxidant nutrient found naturally in every cell of the body, but levels decrease with age, meaning you have less energy as you age. It plays a role in the production of energy (ATP) in the mitochondria of living cells. It also helps cell membrane stay healthy and strong by preventing harmful free radical. Co-enzyme Q10 helps maintain healthy gums, immune and cardiovascular systems.

Contained in a special gelcap, this liquid CoQ10 contains 30 mg of CoQ10 plus 30 I.U. of vitamin E for additional support. Vitamin E is widely known for its antioxidant properties. It may support the cardiovascular and immune systems.

Because CoQ10 is fat-soluble, Unicity has added rice bran oil to this product as a liquid carrier agent and to keep the product from getting rancid. You may notice other competitor products smell stale within 30 days, unlike Unicity's CoQ10.

FAQs:

Q. Why is it so important to shorten the absorption time of this CoQ10 supplement?
A .Fat-soluble compounds are absorbed early in the digestive tract. If these compounds are not available for speedy absorption, they will not get into the body.

Q. As an antioxidant, how does CoQ10 compare to vitamins C and E?
A. CoQ10 is a very efficient electron-carrier. This is the compound's primary responsibility as part of the electron-transport-chain in the mitochondria.

Q. Is there such a thing as taking too many antioxidants?
A. No. Free-radicals and oxidizing particles are constantly produced in normal metabolic functions. A large amount of antioxidants may help to maintain healthy tissue, slow down aging and prevent cancer.
