Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a naturally occurring coenzyme and is critical for its integral functions such as transport of electrons across the mitochondrial membrane to aid cellular respiration and production of ATP. Without coQ10, the chain of cellular energy is broken and without energy, cellular life ceases. CoQ10 levels decrease with age and are even lower in patients with chronic diseases. Prescription drugs including statins may also lower CoQ10 levels, yet they can be increased by supplementing with CoQ10.
