CHALLENGE

Everyone understands the importance of a healthy heart, but maintaining one
can prove difficult. Cardiovascular health can be compromised by diet, genetics,
a sedentary lifestyle, smoking, and an array of other factors. Moreover, our bodies
are often deficient in substances critical to healthy heart function. One example
is coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), which helps produce energy in each cell, particularly
those in the heart and other major organs. Since it has powerful antioxidant
properties, it helps prevent LDL cholesterol oxidation.*

Although the human body can synthesize CoQ10, in some situations the body’s
capacity to produce CoQ10 isn’t sufficient to meet its needs. CoQ10 levels reach
their peak in the human body by age 20 and fall slowly thereafter. In fact, 60%
of the population has CoQ10 deficiency in their 50s and 60s. In addition, certain
medications can reduce the body’s production of CoQ10. Supplements can
help, but since most supplemental CoQ10 is poorly absorbed by the body,
a supplement must be highly bioavailable to be effective.

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE IN SUPPORT OF THE INGREDIENTS IN COQHEART

Coenzyme Q10, also called CoQ10, is a naturally occurring compound found in every cell in the human body. Vital to heart
health, CoQ10 promotes energy production at the cellular level; it’s most evident in the heart, the most active organ in the body.
The beating heart and electrical conduction of the nervous system need a continuous flow of energy that is dependent on adequate
levels of CoQ10 in the cells.*

CoQ10 has antioxidant properties, protecting LDL cholesterol from oxidation, thereby helping to maintain vascular tone and
integrity. CoQ10 has the ability to recycle and regenerate vitamin E, allowing it to continue providing antioxidant protection
to cells of the body.* An estimated 60% of the population has CoQ10 deficiency in the fifth and sixth decades of life.

Clinical studies have shown dietary supplementation with CoQ10 increases the concentrations in both blood and LDL molecules.1

This increase is important for protecting LDL cholesterol from oxidation.*
A recent double-blind, placebo-controlled study found that supplemental CoQ10, given daily for four weeks, significantly lowered
the rate of LDL cholesterol oxidation.*2

Some of the strongest evidence for the cardiovascular benefits of CoQ10 supplementation is found in eight clinical studies in which

researchers concluded that CoQ10 promotes the heart’s ability to pump blood.*3
Resveratrol, a phenolic compound derived from the roots of the Chinese herb Polygonum cuspidatum and also found in red wine,
also possesses potent antioxidant properties; it complements the action of CoQ10. Researchers first demonstrated these antioxidant
properties during laboratory studies in which resveratrol was added to human LDL cholesterol. One such study found that
resveratrol inhibited LDL oxidation by 70–80%.4 Resveratrol may also help blood vessels relax and dilate, both important functions
for optimizing blood flow.*
