Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is found in nearly every cell in the body and is necessary for the basic functioning of cells.1 CoQ10 exists inside small organelles of the cell called mitochondria, the powerhouses of the cell, where it is needed to generate cellular energy. With CoQ10’s presence in the lining of every mitochondria, we are able to convert food (carbohydrates and fat) into cellular energy (ATP). Knowing the role CoQ10 plays in cellular energy production, it is no wonder that the highest concentrations of CoQ10 are found in the hardest working organs, such as the heart, liver and kidneys.†
