Coenzyme Q10 is a substance naturally found in mitochondria, parts of cells that represent centers for energy production and its use in metabolic processes. However, the body's ability to synthesize Q10 coenzyme depends on aging, and after age 20, its concentration in the tissues begins to decrease. For this reason, it is necessary to compensate for this deficiency through food or dietary supplements. The various pathological conditions in the body and the use of drugs (eg, cholesterol lowering) significantly increase the body's needs for this micronutrient.

Why is coenzyme Q10 so important?

It helps maintain optimal blood pressure, heart integrity and blood vessels.
It boosts energy production in cells (energy metabolism).
Protects cells from harmful free radical production. Alcohol, tobacco, drugs, infections, radiation, toxins, inadequate nutrition contribute to excess production of free radicals that damage cellular functions, aging and oxidative stress that is the cause of many chronic diseases.
It helps to regenerate other antioxidants (vitamin E, vitamin C).
Acetyl L-carnitine is the amino acid L-carnitine acetyl ester. It has similar functions to the body with L-carnitine, but it is absorbed much faster and more efficiently than it. It participates in the production of energy from fats. With the tanning process, its concentration in the body decreases, and exogenous administration in the form of dietary supplements is desirable. The donor is an acetyl group and therefore participates in the regeneration of acetyl-coenzyme A and the formation of acetylcholine. Acetyl Coenzyme A participates in a large number of biochemical reactions and one of the most important roles in the body is participation in energy production processes. Acetylcholine is an important neurotransmitter and in this way acetyl L-carnitine plays a role in improving cognitive function and memory.

Coenzyme Q10 and acetyl-L-carnitine are powerful antioxidants. Their combination achieves the maximum utilization of both substances and their effectiveness in many biochemical processes in which they participate together, first of all in the production of energy and in the increase of its level in the body.
