Coenzyme Q10 and Aging
Biological aging is associated with low plasma CoQ10 concentrations and with the resulting worsening of mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and systemic inflammation.
CoQ10 supplementation has a positive effect on mitochondrial deficiency syndrome and some of the symptoms of aging.
The bio-energetic and antioxidant effects of Coenzyme Q10 reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in elderly individuals.

Coenzyme Q10 and Anti-aging Effects
As we get older, our bodies synthesize less and less Coenzyme Q10. We need CoQ10 supplementation. The absorption of CoQ10 supplements varies widely, depending upon the manufacturer’s formulation. Be sure to buy a CoQ10 supplement with documented absorption and clinical efficacy.
Coenzyme Q10 and Selenium for Better Cognitive Function
Elderly individuals who have low Coenzyme Q10 and selenium status are at risk of cognitive decline. In the KiSel-10 Study, daily supplementation with a combination selenium and CoQ10 supplements slowed the aging process. The joint supplementation can improve cognitive function.
Coenzyme Q10 and Selenium Prevent Telomere Shortening, Slow Biological Aging
The aging process is, seemingly, reversible. Harvard professor Dr. David Sinclair and his Harvard University research team have been conducting experiments with mice that show that the aging process can be driven forwards and backwards. [...]
