(CoQ10) is known to be highly concentrated in
heart muscle cells due to the high energy
requirements of this cell type.

For the past 14 years, the great bulk of clinical
work with CoQ10 has focused on heart disease.
Specifically, congestive heart failure (from a
wide variety of causes) has been strongly
correlated with significantly low blood and tissue
levels of CoQ10 . The severity of heart failure
correlates with the severity of CoQ10 deficiency .
This CoQ10 deficiency may well be a primary
etiologic factor in some types of heart muscle
dysfunction while in others it may be a secondary
phenomenon. Whether primary, secondary or both,
this deficiency of CoQ10 appears to be a major
treatable factor in the otherwise inexorable
progression of heart failure.

Pioneering trials of CoQ10 in heart failure
involved primarily patients with dilated weak
heart muscle of unknown cause (idiopathic dilated
cardiomyopathy). CoQ10 was added to standard
treatments for heart failure such as fluid pills
(diuretics), digitalis preparations (Lanoxin), and
ACE inhibitors. Several trials involved the
comparison between supplemental CoQ10 and placebo
on heart function as measured by echocardiography.
CoQ10 was given orally in divided doses as a dry
tablet chewed with a fat containing food or an oil
based gel cap swallowed at mealtime. Heart
function, as indicated by the fraction of blood
pumped out of the heart with each beat (the
ejection fraction), showed a gradual and sustained
improvement in tempo with a gradual and sustained
improvement in patients’ symptoms of fatigue,
dyspnea, chest pain, and palpitations. The degree
of improvement was occasionally dramatic with some
patients developing a normal heart size and
function on CoQ10 alone. Most of these dramatic
cases were patients who began CoQ10 shortly after
the onset of congestive heart failure. Patients
with more established disease frequently showed
clear improvement but not a return to normal heart
size and function.

Those facts have intrigued scientists ever since
CoQ10 was discovered in 1957. A chemical found in
such abundance in the body, they surmised, must
carry significant healing properties. Because
CoQ10 is such a basic source of energy, some
advocates–doctors, nutritionists, body builders
and cancer researchers–believe it is a miracle
substance. Based on hundreds of studies conducted
around the world, claims have been made that CoQ10
can be used to treat a wide variety of maladies:
heart disease, gum disease, breast cancer,
Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease,
migraines, high blood pressure, infertility in
males, skin diseases, fibromyalgia and more. Some
even claim it can enhance athletic performance.
