CoQ10 is an antioxidant created in the body that protects the cells from damage and plays a key role in metabolism.
The heart muscles are constantly active and use a large amount of CoQ10. Unfortunately, as we get older, our levels of CoQ10 can become depleted.
Supplement company Cytoplan - who create CoQ10 Multivitamins - state that these are very beneficial for those taking statins as statins can also inhibit the body's ability to produce CoQ10.
