From the age of 30, CoQ10 production starts to decrease
CoQ10 (coenzyme Q10) is a nutrient found in every cell of our body.
This substance plays a role in energy production in our cells. The role of CoQ10 can best be compared to a spark plug that provides ignition in an engine.
Because CoQ10 plays such a crucial role in energy production in cells, the highest concentrations are found in our heart, brain, liver and kidneys - the organs that require the most energy.
As long as we are young and healthy, our body produces sufficient CoQ10, which it then converts into the active form ubiquinol. Research shows that the amount of ubiquinol starts to decrease around the age of 30.
Can you maintain your ubiquinol levels with a healthy diet?
Ubiquinol is found in modest amounts in meat, poultry and fish, and in even smaller amounts in nuts and green vegetables.
To get the minimum recommended dose of 100 mg of ubiquinol per day, you would have to eat these impressive amounts:
- 3.4 kg steak
- 5.8 kg chicken
- 1.6 kg of peanuts
- 50 cups of spinach
- 120 cans of sardines
However, you can also take one UBIQOR softgel instead, which will provide you with the necessary 100 mg of CoQ10!
Are you taking a cholesterol-lowering drug?
Do you use medication such as statins to lower cholesterol? These drugs also deplete your body's CoQ10 reserves.
This can lead to muscle pain, cramps and fatigue. A daily ubiquinol supplement is also the best way to sufficiently replenish your supply of CoQ10.
It is therefore important to supplement CoQ10 when you take cholesterol-lowering agents.
