What is the hype with horse placenta?

 Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also called ubiquinone (and in its reduced form, ubiquinol), is a vitamin-like compound that is naturally present in almost every cell of the body.  


🔬 What it is made of  A benzoquinone ring (which can accept and donate electrons).  A long isoprenoid side chain (which anchors it in cell membranes, especially the inner mitochondrial membrane).  


⚡ Main Functions  Energy production (ATP synthesis):  CoQ10 is part of the electron transport chain in mitochondria.  It shuttles electrons between complexes I/II and complex III, which is essential for making ATP (the cell’s energy currency). 

 Antioxidant role:  Neutralizes harmful free radicals.  Protects cell membranes, proteins, and DNA from oxidative damage.  Cell signaling and gene expression:  Influences cell growth and communication.  🧍 Where it is found  Naturally made in the body, highest in energy-demanding tissues (heart, liver, kidneys, muscles).  Also present in foods: meat (especially organ meats like heart and liver), fatty fish, nuts, and some oils.  


💊 Uses as a Supplement  Sometimes taken for:   Heart conditions (heart failure, high blood pressure)  Statin-associated muscle pain (since statins lower natural CoQ10 levels)  General fatigue or mitochondrial disorders  


Marketed for anti-aging and skin health due to its antioxidant properties.
