Young people are able to make Q10 from the lower numbered ubiquinones such as Q6 or Q8. The sick and elderly may not be able to make enough. Q10 becomes a vitamin later in life and in illness. Supplementation of Co-enzyme Q10 has been found to have a beneficial effect on the condition of some sufferers of migraines, and is a common component of the 'mito cocktail' used to treat mitochondrial disorders and other metabolic disorders. It is also being investigated as a treatment for cancer, and as relief from cancer treatment side effects.

What is Co-enzyme Q10?

Co-enzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance whose actions resemble those of vitamin E. It is fat-soluble and is stored in the fatty tissues of the body. It plays a critical role in the production of energy in every cell of the body. It aids circulation, stimulates the immune system, increases tissue oxygenation, and has anti-aging effects.

Co-enzyme Q10 has the ability to counter histamine, and therefore is beneficial for people with allergies, asthma, or respiratory disease. It has been used to treat schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease and is also beneficial in fighting obesity, candidiasis, multiple sclerosis, diabetes and even may have positive effects for treating heart disease.

 

It is the deterioration of these tissues which can lead to general joint pain and even conditions like osteoarthrtis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Taking a Glucosamine supplement can help to rebuild and maintain any damaged joint tissue, meaning you benefit from less pain, reduced inflammation, increased flexibility and greater mobility.

Glucosamine is one of the world’s most popular supplements, with extensive research showing that Glucosamine can not only help maintain Healthy Joints, but also treat and even reverse the effects of certain joint complaints such as arthritis.
