Coenzyme Q10 is an antioxidant and is essential for the conversion of the food we eat into energy. Energy production takes place within specialized structures in our cells called mitochondria. Organs that have tremendous energy requirements, such as the brain and heart, possess much greater numbers of the energy-producing mitochondria and thus need greater quantities of coenzyme Q10. With age, the level of coenzyme Q10 has been found to decrease, affecting the body's energy production.
