Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) details
Description
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a compound found in nearly every cell of your body, where it plays an essential role in the mitochondria — your cells' energy-producing machinery — and also functions as an antioxidant. This test assesses CoQ10 status, which is particularly relevant for people taking statin medications, since statins can lower the body's natural CoQ10 production as a side effect of how they work to lower cholesterol. Low CoQ10 has also been studied in relation to certain muscle symptoms, heart conditions, and general fatigue, though the evidence for supplementation benefits varies depending on the specific condition and population studied.
