CoQ10 Supplements

Q10 supplements in Australia

Coenzyme Q10 has a wide range of beneficial effects on human health, including slowing down the ageing process and strengthening the heart muscle. It is usually produced in sufficient quantities by our bodies, but over time, this production decreases. Q10 supplements can help keep the body's level of this substance at the normal level for optimal health and wellness. 

Check out our range at Mr Vitamins to find the right supplements – we guarantee the best prices in Australia and excellent customer service. 

What is coenzyme Q10? 

Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is a powerful antioxidant that can help prolong the life cycle of cells by protecting their walls from damage by free radicals. 

Aside from its protective role, ubiquinone is a powerful energy booster. It is involved in the complex biochemical processes of releasing energy from cells, supporting humans' well-being and activity. Most of all, this substance is needed by such organs as the heart and blood vessels, liver, brain and lungs.

Biologically, coenzyme Q10 is synthesised by cells, but its amount depends on both nutrition and age. The older we get, the less ubiquinone our cells produce: by the age of 70, the body produces half as much coenzyme as it does at age 40. Its deficiency leads to skin ageing, reduced brain activity and weakened immunity. 

How do coenzyme Q10 supplements work?

CoQ10 supplements are effectively used in various fields of clinical medicine. They can have many potential benefits for our health:

  • Positive effect on the heart. The normal functioning of the heart system requires constant energy, and nutritional supplements can act as a tonic - an auxiliary source of energy. They can also be beneficial in strengthening blood vessel walls and increasing their elasticity. 
  • Nervous system support. CoQ10 supplements can be used as a therapy and prevention of myotonic dystrophy and Parkinson's disease. They also show efficacy in treating pathological processes in brain cells caused by oxidative stress.
  • Protect against free radicals. Q10 has antioxidant properties and protects cells from damage by free radicals. As a result, it prevents the oxidation of cell membrane lipids and keeps molecules safe.
  • Brain health boosting. Normal brain function requires a constant process of energy production in cells. Q10 supplements can boost that energy, slow down the ageing of brain cells and improve concentration. 
  • Endurance enhancing. Athletes often consume CoQ10 supplements as part of their diet. Experts also recommend taking it to people with chronic fatigue. Supplements can help the body cope with stressful situations and excessive physical activity. 

How to take Q10 supplements? 

CoQ10 supplements are available in capsule and liquid form. The daily intake of the coenzyme is 100-300 mg, while the maximum allowed amount of the supplement should not exceed 500 mg per day. In each case, the doctor determines the dosage individually, so be sure to consult your physician before taking supplements. You can also book an online consultation with one of our practitioners to choose the right product for your needs. 

Q10 supplements can be taken at any time during the day, except at bedtime, as it provokes energy production. Make sure you read the instructions carefully before using the product. 

Possible side effects of CoQ10 supplements

Although Q10 is considered to be one of the safest supplements, side effects can occur in some cases, including:

  • diarrhoea;
  • stomach ache;
  • decrease or loss of appetite;
  • headache;
  • fatigue;
  • mood swings;
  • dizziness;
  • itching. 

It should also be taken with caution by people under the age of 14 and during pregnancy or breast-feeding.
