Medical studies have shown coenzyme Q10 to be a good addition to any health program. This easy-to-read guide reviews the practical uses of this antioxidant nutrient and the proper dosages, along with its safety and how it interacts with medicines and other natural compounds.

CoQ10 is not just good for the heart. If any of the following factors apply to you or someone you know, you may be interested in learning more about this unique antioxidant nutrient: Congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease or previous heart attacks, high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, plans to have a heart operation, mitral valve prolapse, breast cancer, currently on chemotherapy, periodontitis or gingivites, fatigue, on a vegetarian diet, or have a high oil intake.

Certain antioxidants do more than just protect our cells from damage. They actually play a role in improving the function of certain organs and in treating particular diseases. Most doctors in the United States are not yet aware of the potential of these nutrients, including CoQ10. However, many doctors in Europe already prescribe CoQ10 to patients with congestive heart failure.
