Co-Q-10 - Clinical Studies
Pure Co-Q-10 - 60 x 25 mg. Availability


Co-Q-10, 60 Tablets Co-Q-10 - the abbreviation for "Coenzyme-Q-10" (or "ubiquinone") is a fat-soluble vitamin that is central to the body's production of energy. Co-Q-10 has an interesting history: it was discovered in 1957 by Fred Crane, M.D., from the University of Wisconsin, who isolated it from beef hearts. The research was carried out by Dr. Karl Folkers.
Only recently has the importance of Co-Q-10 begun to become truly appreciated. Co-Q-10 is found in all vertebrates (animals with a spine) except rats, mice, and one known fish (the walleyed pike).
Our Co-Q-10 clinical study page presents just a few of the many studies which have been done on Co-Q-10 as a supplement, in areas such as...
  • Antioxidant -Co-Q-10 is a powerful antioxidant. It has the ability to decrease the amount of harmful free radical activity in the body (Grieb, P. Antioxidant systems - physiology and pharmacotherapy trends. Mater Med Pol 1992 24(4):217-222).
  • Aging - With age, illness, or environmental stress, Co-Q-10 levels decrease in the body, some researchers (Lee, WH et al. PhD, Coenzyme Q 10. Keats Publ., New Canaan, Connecticut 1987) have speculated that on account of its its ability to prevent mitochondrial damage coupled with its antioxidant properties, Co-Q-10 may well "play a fundamental role in decelerating aging."
  • Breast Cancer- Co-Q-10 has been the subject of research in relation to breast cancer (Lockwood K et al. Progress on therapy of breast cancer with vitamin Q 10 and the regression of metastases. Biochem Biophys Res Commun Jul 1995;6;212(1):172-77). Patients should take note that there are contraindications with Coumadin and perhaps other blood thinners.
  • Cardiovascular health -Co-Q-10's ability to increase oxygen delivery and energy supply has been studied in clinical trials involving mitral valve prolapse, angina, cardiomyopathy, hypertension, and congestive heart failure.
  • Memory / Alzheimer's -Impaired memory is believed to be tied to a lack of oxygen utilization by the brain. Co-Q-10 has been the subject of research in relation to memory.
  • Periodontal conditions -Co-Q-10 has also been studied in relation to periodontal health (Mayell, M. The Natural Health First Aid Guide. 1994. Pocket Booksj, NY, NY. p. 298).
A Word About Our Product: The kilogram price for Co-Q-10 is just out of this world. Jokes abound within the industry that with each purchase, the raw material suppliers should provide a complimentary mirror, razor blade, and snorting straw. (LOL ... Bad!) ... So, to differentiate their products and effective "cut" the actual amount of Co-Q-10, a large number of resellers add far cheaper ingredients and come up with names like "Co-Q-10 Plus" or "Super Co-Q-10" - when what they are really doing is "cutting the product." If you really need gingko biloba, or Vitamin E, or lecithin, or any of the other cheap ingredients that Co-Q-10 gets mixed with to reduce material cost -- buy them separately. Whether you get your Co-Q-10 from us, or somebody else, buy the real thing, the genuine article --- pure and undiluted.

Updated Lab Notes
Among a group of 75 American women with cervical cancer or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, a precursor to cancer, lower levels of Co-Q-10 were found in blood and cervical/vaginal cells, compared with 27 women with normal Pap smears. Another study among 200 French women with breast tumors, both malignant and benign, found reduced amounts of blood Coenzyme Q-10. And a later study of 21 Turkish women with breast cancer undergoing radical mastectomy found lower amounts of Co-Q-10 within the normal, surrounding tissue. In fact, four of the women had undetectable amounts of Co-Q-10. Co-Q-10 remains a subject of further study.
Correlation Summary:
  • Breast Cancer
  • Coronary Disease
  • Alzheimer's
  • Memory Loss, General
  • Aging
  • Periodontal Disease

Co-Q-10 has been widely studied since the late 1980's, so the net has a variety of useful articles to more fully inform both practitioner and end user of its properties and applications:
Notable Quotes
"There has been some evidence that Coenzyme Q has efficacy when used in combination with other cancer treatments to ameliorate harmful side effects of those treatments (refer to proponent claims/beliefs section). However, it should be noted that it has not been proven that CoQ is effective as a cancer treatment in itself." (BC Cancer Agency)
