CoQ10 (Coenzyme Q10)

CoQ10, also known as Coenzyme Q10, is a powerful antioxidant and heart nutrient that provides an essential spark in the production of energy. Research on this vitamin/enzyme-like substance has focused mainly on those with severe heart problems.*

The highest concentrations of CoQ10 are found in the heart. Typical daily dosages of CoQ10 are as follows:

30-100 mg        General health
90-160 mg        Heavy exercisers
60-160 mg        Family history of heart problems
100-200 mg      Mild heart problems
200-300 mg      If taking Statin drugs
300-360 mg      Congestive heart problems 
1,200 mg           Those with Parkinson's

In general, the more severe your heart problems, the greater the benefit CoQ10 will be.
