Coenzyme Q10, An Essential Vitamin-like Nutrient!

"A Cardiologist Looks at Coenzyme Q10" by Dr. Peter Langsjoen, "a leading cardiologist in the use of CoQ10 in the treatment of heart problems in the United States, (who) owns one of three specialized machines in the world for measuring this vitamin-like substance."

"... as Americans grow older, CoQ10 is produced less by the body. 'We have known since the 1970s that patients with heart failure have low levels of coenzyme Q10 both in their blood and heart muscle. We also have known that supplemental coenzyme Q10 improves heart muscle function in patients with congestive heart failure'.

'It is very important to point out that supplemental coenzyme Q10 will not benefit heart muscle function unless the blood levels of CoQ10 are high enough to enter into heart muscle and thereby improve its function.'

The implication here is that 'token dosing' of CoQ10 rarely helps. The dose must be therapeutic, a level that may vary from person to person."
