COENZYME Q10 INTAKE IN OLD AGE

Q10, also known as ubiquinone-10, CoQ10, or coenzyme Q10, is a substance that is both produced in the body and absorbed through food. Its biological function is to convert energy from food into the body's own energy. The organs with the highest energy requirements—especially the heart, liver, and lungs—correspondingly have the highest concentrations of Q10. A Q10 deficiency leads to a significantly lower energy level and a weakened immune system. This vital coenzyme plays a particularly important role in the body's cells.

WHAT IS THE CORRECT Q10 DOSAGE?

Your body is capable of producing coenzyme Q10 itself. However, your body's production declines after the age of 30. Therefore, supplementing with this essential vitamin is recommended in cases of an unbalanced diet, stress, tobacco and alcohol consumption, and with increasing age. A study involving 220 subjects who regularly took Nobilin Q10 Multivitamin for six months even demonstrated that additional supplementation with coenzyme Q10 is beneficial even with a balanced diet for an active lifestyle.

The general recommendation is for healthy individuals to take 30 to 100 milligrams of Q10 daily, and for special needs, up to 100 mg of the bioactive Q10 form QH. The goal of this Q10 supplementation is to prevent a decline in Q10 levels throughout the body—especially in the heart muscle and brain—from the age of 40 onward.

Useful Q10 supplement

A Q10 supplement is particularly useful during an intensive phase of life, during periods of extreme physical or mental stress, as part of a diet, or to support the body's immune system. Since Q10 cannot be absorbed in sufficient quantities through food, additional supplementation is recommended. The Q10 dietary supplement is best taken as a capsule or tablet, as these forms provide the necessary dosage and are easily absorbed by the body.

Q10 – THE VITAMIN FOR THE CELLS

Coenzyme Q10 is found in both plant and animal foods, but can also be produced by the body itself. However, the body's own synthesis decreases with age. Coenzyme Q10 is found primarily in meat (beef, lamb, pork), fish, peanuts, broccoli, and whole grain products. Adequate intake of the coenzyme is necessary to supply cells with the energy they need and to maintain cellular function. Additional intake through dietary supplements can be beneficial to support the body's own production and slow the aging process.
