It's a never-ending battle to slow down the aging process. We're all still waiting for someone to discover the fountain of youth, but until that
happens exercise and proper diet are the best defenses you have against aging. Unfortunately, as we age our bodies change and in the process, the production of an important substance known as Coenzyme Q10 slows
down. Coenzyme Q10 plays a crucial role in maintaining your immune system and slowing down the aging process, specifically as it relates to your heart. Q10 has been used in the treatment of heart
disease. In addition to fighting heart disease, research has revealed that Coenzyme may help in the treatment of high blood pressure, allergies, asthma and may benefit those suffering mental disorders such as
schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease. Coenzyme is a vitamin-like substance that resembles vitamin E and is concentrated in the organs that burn a lot of energy
like the heart, liver and kidneys. It is known for its antioxidant properties and should be supplemented in the diet to promote healthy functioning organs. Foods that contain high levels of Coenzyme Q10 are
mackerel, salmon and sardines. If you are looking for a more convenient form of Q10, most popular nutritional stores carry it in capsule form. Be careful when purchasing it because not all products offer it
in its purest form. Coenzyme should be bright yellow in color and tasteless in powdered form. Pure Q10 will lose its effectiveness in temperatures exceeding 115 degrees Fahrenheit.
Add Coenzyme Q10 to your diet and let's all stay young at heart! |
