- R-PLUS (RLA/R-DHLA) may optimize CoQ10’s
role of protecting the heart and reduce the risk of age-related atherosclerosis.
- R-PLUS may work synergistically to protect and
regenerate oxidized/spent CoQ10.
- R-PLUS and CoQ10 may improve symptoms of metabolic
syndrome and diabetes, such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
- R-PLUS and CoQ10 may both be necessary to maintain
youthful mitochondrial energy function as well as normal cell growth
and maintenance, which declines with chronic degenerative diseases.
- R-DHLA within R-PLUS reduces CoQ10 to ubiquinol,
increasing the antioxidant capacity of CoQ10, and keeps it in its
antioxidant (reduced) active form.
- R-PLUS and CoQ10 may improve the function of the
immune system and cross the blood brain barrier to optimize cognitive
function
CoQ10 is a naturally-occurring lipoceutical (fat-soluble
nutrient), powerful antioxidant and free radical scavenger, as well as
a major component of heart health maintenance. CoQ10 might be a useful
adjunct if you are taking cholesterol lowering statin drugs which deplete
the body of CoQ10.
Supplementation with CoQ10 is often desired to improve
immune function, mitochondrial metabolism and energy production in the
support of fatigue-related disorders, the enhancement of athletic performance,
periodontal problems, and neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's.
CoQ10 is found in the body in cell membranes and lipoproteins.
Its primary functions are to produce energy by contributing to the manufacture
mitochondrial ATP, the energy "currency" of life required
by all cells and as an antioxidant in mitochondrial membranes.
GeroNova uses an exclusive, yeast-fermented CoQ10 manufactured
in Japan, chemically identical to the CoQ10 produced in the body.
This bio-identical form may be more readily assimilated
into the body's tissues than synthetic formulations. Yeast-fermented
CoQ10 provides the trans-isomer, while many synthetic CoQ10 products
on the market today contain the varying quantities of the unnatural cis
form of CoQ10.
