The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and blood vessels. Cholesterol
causes plaque to buildup in the arteries which restricts blood flow to the
heart, causing a heart attack and perhaps death. Heart disease is the #1
cause of death in America.
Besides a healthy diet and exercise, a supplement of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), tocotrienols and fish oil can help maintain heart health. These three ingredients collaborate to ensure that enough energy is produced at the cellular level to sustain a healthy lipid profile.
All cells require adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to function. ATP represents a major source of stored energy in the body and is responsible for many metabolic processes. CoQ10 is key in the production of ATP. CoQ10 is found throughout the body in cell membranes, especially mitochondrial membranes, where food is converted to energy.
In 1990, the American Journal of Cardiology reported, "Coenzyme Q10 is necessary for the mitochondria to perform their functions and is essential for human life." It's most abundant in the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys and spleen. Without adequate levels of CoQ10, the body can't produce adequate levels of ATP.
When you consider that the average person uses 60% of his or her daily energy alone on base metabolism, you can see how vital CoQ10 is in ensuring that the body is able to create enough energy for its millions of daily tasks and special energy needs.
Dr. Yuichi Yamamura in Japan was the first to use CoQ7 (related to CoQ10) to treat congestive heart failure. Since then many clinical trials have shown the power of CoQ10 in promoting heart health (Langsjoen, et. al., 1994, Greenberg & Frishman, 1990).
