What is CoQ10?

CoQ10 is a compound involved in the energy-producing mitochondria inside cells, and it also acts as an antioxidant. The body makes it, and levels are said to shift with age. Being fat-soluble, it absorbs better with food. It may interact with some medicines (including blood-related ones), so check with a professional if you take medication.
