Co Q 10 - What is Co Q 10, How Does it Help your Heart and What We Need to Be Careful About!

You've probably heard of Coenzyme 10 or what is often referred to as "Co Q 10" but you may not know exactly what it is and what it is used for.

Co Q 10 is inside of our bodies; however, as we get older, it gets depleted from our system. We need it for the basic functioning of our cells. As the Co Q 10 gets depleted, our cells don't work as well. Cells make up organs like the heart so therefore if the heart cells have less Co Q 10 in them, the heart won't work as well.

Age reduces Co Q 10 from our bodies but medications will also do this. Guess what popular drugs decrease our natural Co Q 10 from our bodies? Cholesterol lowering drugs. Yes, the doctors never tell you that, do they? They just prescribe cholesterol lowering drugs left and right. And the truth is that studies have shown that people with heart problems often have low levels of Co Q 10 in their systems to begin with. So add cholesterol lowering drugs to that equation and you've got problems.

Co Q 10 supplements have been shown to increase energy within the heart, therefore, making it stronger and making it work better. Studies have shown that taking supplements have helped heart patients with fatigue, dispend, chest pain, and palpitations.

Please realize that if you go to your local health store, Co Q 10 supplements can be very expensive... which is why a lot of people who want to take it don't. However, if you search carefully, you can find cheap supplements online. Although, again, remember the old saying "you get what you pay for" and some of the cheap supplements are junk. And what a lot of people don't know is that a lot of vitamins are not "natural vitamins". They have "fillers" and even "trans fat" in them. Yes, they are removing the dangerous "trans fat" from McDonald's foods and they are putting it in our vitamins. Makes sense, doesn't it??
