Heart health
Numerous studies have shown that patients with various heart problems can benefit by taking 100 to 200 mg daily of Co Q10. Heart disease is rated by classes, from Class I (mild) to Class IV (severe). In a study of over 400 patients with heart problems ranging from arrhythmia to ischemic heart failure, participants exhibited such notable improvements in chest pain, fatigue, and palpitations over an average of 18 months that almost 60 percent of patients improved by one class, that almost 30 percent improved by two classes, and that many were able to decrease their heart medications. In a study of over 600 patients with congestive heart failure (CHF), participants received either Co Q10 (about 1 mg per pound of body weight) or placebo daily for 12 months. After a year of steady improvements in the Co Q10 group, researchers predicted that daily Co Q10 could reduce the rate of hospital admissions for CHF by 20 percent. Heart surgery In patients undergoing heart surgery, those receiving Co Q10 before and after surgery have not only experienced better heart function post-operatively than those receiving placebo, but have recovered from surgery more quickly and with fewer complications. Reducing adverse effects of statin drugs Statin drugs (eg, Atorvastatin, Simvastatin) are given to atherosclerosis patients to reduce cholesterol levels. However, they deplete Co Q10 levels, causing symptoms such as severe muscle fatigue. Over time, statin use can increase the risk of myopathy (muscle weakness, especially of the heart). However, studies are increasingly showing that these adverse effects can be overcome by taking Co Q10 supplements along with statin drugs. Metabolic syndrome Metabolic syndrome (also known as Syndrome X) includes hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity, and diabetes. These problems often occur together and greatly increase the risk of heart disease. Recent research has shown that in addition to supporting heart health, Co Q10 can help to reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol, strengthen arteries, and support blood sugar control in people with Type 2 diabetes.
