If you’ve heard of Coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, before, it’s likely been in a biological sense. That’s because CoQ10, like hyaluronic acid or amino acids, is found naturally in your body. Coenzyme Q10 helps generate energy in your body’s cells.
“[CoQ10] is a naturally occurring antioxidant that is present in every cell of your body. It’s essential for the proper functioning of many organs and chemical reactions in the body, helping to provide energy to cells and protect against oxidative damage,” says Dr. Margarita Lolis, MD, New Jersey-based dermatologist. “It plays a critical role in the production of ATP, which is a source of energy for cell processes.”
