Getting aware of the proper consumption of medicine is important for people so as not to overdose and experience unwanted side effects. Normally, vitamins are formed in the body through the food we eat and this same goes with other nutrients such as Coenzyme q10 or CoQ10 which plays a major role in the formation of energy in the cellular level particularly to the heart and cardiovascular system.

How much Coenzyme q10 dosage we need daily? As experts say, CoQ10 can be taken at any large amount and as we age the more we need high dosage of the nutrients. We should always be reminded that as people get older, the body system ages too which easily acquires bacterial or viral infection and worse developing into diseases due to lack of nutrients or weakening of resistance to fight back bacteria.  

As CoQ10 is essential in our cells to produce the needed energy in our body, it is categorized as naturally occurring vitamin we get from food such as meat, sardines, mackerel, peanuts and soy oil but with the help of Vitamin B6 to help synthesize the proper conversion.

In a recent study, researchers mentioned that CoQ10 is a dominant anti-oxidant compound that is capable in eliminating all the toxins and free radicals to manipulate the body system especially those in the weakened organs. Thus, consuming a lot of the dosage is preferable for older and younger people.

Since people are hesitant on the intake of too much Coenzyme Q10 dosage as other vitamins are advised only at most 500-1000 mg daily. Researchers agreed that a general consumption of 30 and 90 IU per day is enough for people under 40 years old but still medical professionals demand to have an increase of the dosage if possible so to gain too much of the nutrients in the secretion of energy in the cells especially those who are sickly and above the age 40.

Consuming more than the minimum dosage is proven safe and effective as CoQ10 can be achieved through natural procedure by healthy food intake. In clinical studies, taking extremely more than the required dosage daily shows positive results that benefited the heart certainly no negative effects was being recorded.

A daily consumption of Q10 up to 300 IU per day promotes a better condition for heart failure, blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmias, and post cardiac operation and to the whole of cardiovascular system. Patients who suffer from Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease are even required to take 2400 IU per day to augment the growth of the illness as more energy is being produced into the cells.
