Popular health ingredients: Coenzyme Q10

Author : Naturalin　　Date :　Click : times

As health awareness grows, Coenzyme Q10, a vitamin-like fat-soluble quinone, has become a popular health ingredient due to its multiple benefits such as heart protection, oxidation resistance and anti-aging. Let’s explore this "star ingredient" briefly.




What is Coenzyme Q10? Basic Properties and Physiological Functions


Also known as ubiquinone, Coenzyme Q10 is abundant in mitochondria of heart, liver and kidney cells. As a key "generator" in cellular "energy factories" (mitochondria), it participates in energy conversion. Meanwhile, as a fat-soluble antioxidant, it scavenges free radicals, protects cells and slows aging.

Core Health Benefits of Coenzyme Q10


Its core benefits include prominent heart protection: low levels are common in heart failure patients, and supplementation can improve cardiac function and reduce cardiovascular event risks. It also relieves fatigue by enhancing cellular energy metabolism, benefiting high-intensity workers and athletes. Additionally, it aids anti-aging skincare by scavenging free radicals, maintaining skin elasticity, which makes it a key ingredient in many skincare products.

Who Needs to Supplement Coenzyme Q10?


The human body can synthesize Coenzyme Q10, but this ability declines significantly after 30-40 years old. Long-term stress, overwork, chronic diseases and statin use also accelerate its consumption, making supplementation necessary for these groups.

Two Main Ways to Supplement Coenzyme Q10


Supplementation mainly relies on diet and supplements. Deep-sea fish, animal hearts/livers are rich sources, but dietary intake is limited due to low content and heat loss. Supplements (tablets, soft capsules) are more effective; soft capsules are preferred for better absorption. Choose products with official health food certification, and the recommended daily dose is 50-200mg.

Other popular health ingredients


In addition to Coenzyme Q10, there are many other popular health ingredients in the field of health preservation, among which curcumin, ganoderma lucidum extract and ginkgo biloba extract are widely concerned：

Curcumin
Curcumin is a polyphenolic substance extracted from the rhizomes of plants such as turmeric and curcuma zedoaria. It has been widely used as a daily condiment and colorant. Its core health benefits include auxiliary protection against chemical liver injury, enhancing immunity and strong antioxidant capacity. It should be noted that the claims that curcumin can sober up or lose weight are rumors without scientific basis. In addition, curcumin is not easy to be absorbed by the human body, and adding a small amount of piperine can significantly improve its bioavailability.

Ganoderma Extract
Ganoderma extract is derived from ganoderma lucidum, a kind of fungus. Its main active ingredients include triterpenoids and ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides. It has obvious effects in regulating immune function, resisting oxidation, protecting the liver and soothing the nerves to help sleep. Unlike simply enhancing immunity, it can balance the immune system—improving immunity for people with low immunity and regulating it for people with overactive immune systems prone to allergies. It should be used with caution by people with allergies, pregnant and lactating women, and those with low blood pressure.

Ginkgo Biloba Extract
Ginkgo biloba extract is a natural active preparation extracted from ginkgo biloba leaves, rich in flavonoid glycosides, ginkgolides and other key components. It can improve blood circulation, scavenge free radicals and inhibit inflammation, thus exerting protective effects on the kidneys, brain and liver. It is especially suitable for people with chronic organ damage risks such as long-term hypertension and diabetes, and those with mild cognitive decline. It should be emphasized that fresh ginkgo biloba leaves contain toxic components and cannot be soaked in water for drinking. Products produced by regular manufacturers should be selected, and people with hemorrhagic diseases or taking anticoagulants should use it with caution.
