Bios Coenzyme Q-10 120 mg capsules, 100 ST

Bios Coenzyme Q-10 120 mg capsules are a food supplement containing coenzyme Q-10. Kaneka Q10™ is a particularly high-quality and bioavailable form of ubiquinone (ubiquinone).

Coenzyme Q-10 (= ubiquinone) is a key component in all energy-producing processes and is required in every single one of the approximately 80 trillion cells in our body. In the mitochondria – the powerhouses of our cells – energy is produced in the form of ATP. However, this only occurs effectively if the mitochondria have sufficient quantities of coenzyme Q-10. Higher concentrations are required particularly in high-performance organs such as the heart and brain, but also in the muscles, as there is an increased demand for metabolic energy (ATP) in these areas. Interestingly, the mitochondrial density in the muscles of athletes is considerably higher than in inactive individuals. To maintain the performance capacity of these muscles, higher amounts of coenzyme Q-10 are therefore required. Unfortunately, the body’s ability to produce coenzyme Q-10 declines with age.

The body’s own production of ubiquinone is also impaired by chronic stress and in people taking lipid-lowering medication. Whilst it is possible to meet this requirement through diet, higher concentrations of ubiquinone are unfortunately found precisely in the foods that are rarely consumed nowadays, such as offal (heart, liver, kidney and brain). Therefore, taking a coenzyme Q-10 supplement has proven effective in maintaining the body’s own energy production processes. Coenzyme Q-10 120 mg Bios capsules contain 100% pure, fermentation-derived Q-10 from Kaneka, which has the highest bioavailability in the world.
