March 8, 2021 CoQ10 Ingredient Spotlight Share on: Your heart beats about 100,000 times in one day and about 35 million times in a year. During an average lifetime, the human heart will beat more than 2.5 billion times and pumps about 1 million barrels of blood – enough to fill more than three supertankers. So, what fuels all of this? Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a naturally occurring nutrient in the body that is stored in the mitochondria of your cells and acts as a powerful antioxidant and is required for the basic functioning of cells. These mitochondria are in charge of producing energy. In fact, CoQ10 helps generate up to 95% of the human body’s energy AND promotes cardiovascular health and circulation. CoQ10 is present in every cell of your body, but has the highest concentration in organs with the greatest energy demands, such as the heart, kidneys, lungs, and liver. CoQ10 also provides UV protection–another great benefit for those looking to slow the look of aging. CoQ10 levels are reported to decrease with age and as such many health advisers suggest adding a CoQ10 rich diet or supplement to support your body’s energy production. The following foods contain CoQ10: Organ meats: Heart, liver and kidneySome muscle meats: Pork, beef and chickenFatty fish: Trout, herring, mackerel and sardineVegetables: Spinach, cauliflower and broccoliFruit: Oranges and strawberriesLegumes: Soybeans, lentils and peanutsNuts and seeds: Sesame seeds and pistachiosOils: Soybean and canola oil CoQ10 is also well absorbed in supplemental form and is a featured ingredient in both Kyäni Nitro Xtreme and Kyäni HL5.
