Q10 Mono 30 mg -

Coenzym Q10 zur Basisversorgung

Q10 intake and dosage in capsule form

Your body is capable of producing Q10 itself. However, your body's own 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 demonstrated that supplementing with 30 mg of coenzyme Q10 is beneficial for an active lifestyle, even with a balanced diet.

Q10 supplementation with a mono-product

Q10 Mono 30 mg is particularly suitable for supplementing multivitamin products without coenzyme Q10. If you already use a multivitamin product such as Nobilin Multivital or Nobilin Vita Immun and want to add coenzyme Q10 to your supplement regimen, you've come to the right place. Of course, our product also supports you if you want to improve your Q10 intake independently of other dietary supplements. Q10 Mono 30 mg contains 30 milligrams of high-quality natural Q10 in softgel capsules for daily intake as a dietary supplement. The ingredients are dissolved in oil for optimal absorption.

Good to know: A Q10 supplement is especially beneficial for people over 40, as the body's production of Q10 decreases with age. If you take cholesterol-lowering drugs, so-called statins, you should also supplement with Q10, according to the recommendation of the Drug Commission of the German Medical Association. Statins inhibit the body's own Q10 production.

Coenzyme Q10 is the vitamin for the cells

Our bodies need energy to live. We absorb most of it from food and drink. Mitochondria in each of our cells work like mini-power plants, converting the nutrients we ingest into the universal energy carrier ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Coenzyme Q10 plays a key role in this process, known as oxidative phosphorylation. Q10 is considered a vitaminoid because it is structurally related to vitamin K and vitamin E. The reduced, phenolic form is called ubihydroquinone or ubiquinol (QH2 for short) and is the most active form of the coenzyme.

If the body doesn't have enough Q10 available, it can't generate enough energy in the form of ATP. Furthermore, a deficiency of this coenzyme increases the proliferation of free radicals, leading to oxidative stress. An important function of our immune system is to protect us from these free radicals, which can be released by environmental influences, stress, medications, cigarettes, alcohol, and even competitive sports. By binding these free radicals in the body, antioxidants protect against them.

Coenzymes are low-molecular-weight, non-protein components of enzymes. The word comes from the Latin cum (together, with). The complex organic molecules (vitamins, nucleotides) are usually only loosely or temporarily bound to the protein portion of the enzyme (apoenzyme). Many enzymes are only active in the presence of coenzymes. Coenzyme Q10 was first isolated from bovine hearts by Fred L. Crane in 1957. One year later, Karl August Folkers deciphered the chemical structure of Q10. The health benefits of the coenzyme were soon recognized, especially in Japan. Q10 was produced industrially there and approved as a drug for the treatment of heart failure as early as 1974. Today, the Japanese company Kaneka is the market leader in the production and distribution of ubiquinol. Ubiquinol is the active form of the coenzyme, also known as ubiquinone or coenzyme Q10.
