Dr Rath Q10 Complex

The added benefit of the body’s own energy carrier Q10.

Coenzyme Q10 is a vitaminoid, i.e., a vitamin-like substance that occurs in the cells of our bodies. It is present in particularly high amounts in strongly metabolically active organs, e.g., the heart, liver, lungs and muscles – organs that have a high consumption of bioenergy.

Coenzyme Q10 can be taken in through food or be produced by the body itself. The body synthesis contributes substantially to the supply of Q10, but this requires the presence of certain essential micronutrients.

But did you know that the body’s ability to form its own Q10 decreases with age? At the age of 40, the levels of Q10 in the heart are already more than 30% lower than at the age of 20. With increasing age, the amount of Q10 produced in the body, and the amount of it in the cells, continues to fall.
