The synergistic combination of L-Carnitine and CoQ10 is closely linked to the role they have in the biochemistry of energy. Both are naturally occurring substances that are found in virtually all cells of the human body and represent two of the most important factors in metabolic energy enhancement and their combination not only supports the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, but also provides and supports the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the "energy of life". A deficiency of L-Carnitine and CoQ10 are deficiencies in energy.

Quite simply, L-Carnitine delivers the fuel and CoQ10 helps burn it. By combining them together, the utilization of CoQ10 increases significantly, up to three times the effectiveness.

As we age, the production of both CoQ10 and L-Carnitine decrease and relative deficiencies may appear overtime. Although abundant in grains, legumes, and most meat, CoQ10 is often destroyed through processing and cooking. L-Carnitine, while available in meats, must be synthesized by the body from the amino acids lysine and methionine, and B1, B6, niacin, vitamin C and iron.

L-Carnitine is used by the body to transport long chain fatty acids to the mitochondria in your cells, where it is burned for energy. Since this fat burning is such a major source of muscular energy, deficiencies in Carnitine are manifested as low energy levels and muscular weakness. They can also appear as mental confusion or cloudiness, angina (heart pain) and weight gain. Since the only dietary source of L-Carnitine is meat, vegans and vegetarians, especially athletic vegetarians are most susceptible to Carnitine deficiency.

Coenzyme Q10 sparks the mitochondrial energy production that runs all vital body functions. Thus, processes such as the mechanical beating of the heart and the electrical spiking of the brain must go on continually to preserve the body and the cells of the body. Energy must continually generate energy to support these processes. This steady stream of energy for the "higher-level" body processes depends absolutely on each cell's having adequate levels of CoQ10 with which to provide this energy.

The body's manufacture of CoQ10 is a complex and demanding process. It takes place in the liver, and at least three different classes of starting molecules are required, at least 15 different reactions are necessary (each catalyzed by an enzyme), as well as a large number of cofactor substances. This makes CoQ10 expensive for the body to produce, in that all the component parts must be available in sufficient quantities at the same time.

As we age, the body's digestion capabilities diminish and the metabolism of fuels becomes significantly less efficient. One of the major contributing factors in excessive fatigue in the elderly is the lack of CoQ10 in the cells of the body. The body no longer has sufficient energy to make the energy!

Some of the Benefits a CoQ10 and Carnitine Combination Can Provide:

Cardiovascular Health:

  • Strengthens heart muscle and contractibility
  • Protects against hypoxia
  • Relieves angina and hypertension
  • Improves tolerance to exercise and increases endurance
  • Protection against ischemia
  • Reduce damage caused by myocardial infarction

As an Antioxidant:

  • Protects against cellular oxidative damage from free radicals
  • Corrects Vitamin E deficiency
  • Protects against the adverse effects of drugs, especially adrianycin (used in cancer treatment) tricyclic anti-depressants, beta-blockers
  • Improved immunity especially in its decline from aging
  • Periodontal (gum) disease

Other Possible Health Benefits from Coenzyme Q10:

  • Increased production of ATP, which is responsible for all the energy transactions in the entire body.
  • Muscular dystrophies
  • Hearing and Equilibrium Impairments
  • Weight Loss including cellulite reduction
  • Diabetes
