Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an antioxidant involved in the production of energy in cells. CoQ10 is found in cells throughout the entire body. Coenzyme Q10 levels decrease as a person ages, a fact that shows that taking this may slow down the aging process.

In Japan, CoQ10 is used extensively to reduce the risk of heart attack, lower blood pressure, treat congestive heart failure, and boost the immune system. Research indicates that this product is useful in treating angina and may help prevent heart damage after surgery.
