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
