Product Description: Targeted Support® SupplementThird Party TestedWhy Optimal CoQ10 WorksEvery cell in the body needs energy to function. This energy is called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). It is produced in the mitochondria of cells by a protein called ATP synthase. Like water or windmills, these proteins spin when electrons are concentrated around them. Through ATP synthase, electrons attach a phosphate group to ADP, creating ATP (energy). Where do these electrons come from? Our food! When food is metabolized, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are converted into acetyl CoA. This compound can participate in the Krabs cycle and generate electrons. Electrons are transferred to the mitochondrial membrane by NADH and FADH2. The inner membrane of mitochondria contains four protein complexes. Together, they form the electron transport chain (ETC). The role of the ETC is to receive electrons generated from food and create a continuous flow of electrons for ATP synthesis. The end result is that over 90% of the body's energy is produced in the form of ATP. The first two complexes accept electrons and pass them on to an important nutrient called coenzyme Q (CoQ). This coenzyme readily accepts electrons and transfers them to the third complex of ETC. After a few more steps, ATP synthase completes ATP production with the help of electrons delivered by CoQ10. Without CoQ, this entire process is impossible. CoQ10 is a supplemental form of CoQ. Optimal CoQ10 meets and exceeds cGMP quality standards.
