CoQ10 is also known as Coenzyme Q10 or ubiquinone. It is often found in multivitamin supplements and as a stand-alone product that you can buy in most health food stores and even online.

Before we dive deeper into what the best way to take advantage of the CoQ10 health benefits are, let's look at some of the food sources where you can find good amounts of this Coenzyme:

• Beef
• Soy
• Mackerel
• Sardines
• Spinach
• Peanuts
• Soybeans

A lot of studies have been done on the effects of using CoQ10 on a daily basis. The human body has large amounts of it during the early years, but as age starts to creep up on us, it diminishes to sometimes very low levels.

A recent study discovered that low amounts of CoQ10 can reduce oxidation and break in your DNA. The researchers found that when you eat a diet rich in polyunsatured fatty acids and CoQ10, you could potentially extend your lifespan. More research needs to be done, but the preliminary results are promising.

Countless studies have been made on the effects of this substance. The really cool thing is that you can find Coenzyme Q10 in your cells, where it helps produce energy and fuel your body and brain.

Other places where Q10 has been shown to help are: heart, muscles, athletic performance, energy, anti-aging, lifespan extension and a host of others.

With all these benefits, how can you actually take advantage of them and start improving your life? What I personally do is I take a multivitamin that contains a high quality form of CoQ10, which is ubiquinone.

There has also been research done that shows when different nutrients are blended together that they make each other stronger and more powerful. This means more health benefits for you and your body.
