How Can You Use Coq10 In Treatment Of Hypertension?

It has been for some years theorised that a person suffering from hypertension could gain significant benefits from including the enzyme known as Coenzyme Q10 into their diet. A number of studies that have been carried out seem to agree that there are some benefits to be gained from using Coq10 in treatment of hypertension.

It has been over 40 years now since CoQ10 was first discovered and isolated and during this time hundreds of clinical trials have been carried out. It has become apparent during this time is that it is vital to keep our bodies working at optimum levels.

CoQ10 is a fat-soluble quinone. Not only does it contain its own powerful anti-oxidant properties, but also when used in collaboration with Vitamin E helps to power the body's production of energy. It is found through out our bodies especially in the mitochondrial membranes found in our organs as well as the spleen, pancreas and the adrenal glands. Unfortunately, as we grow older the amount of CoQ10 found in the body begins to decrease. So it is an essential ingredient if you want to help slow part of the ageing process.

Certainly even though this nutrient was discovered over 40 years ago it is only in recent years more extensive studies have been carried out on its properties. This is especially true in relation to the prevention as well as treatment of many types of cardiovascular diseases including hypertension.

High levels of cholesterol within the body causes the arteries to become clogged and results in the heart having to pump harder in order to push blood around the body, so it can carry all those nutrients, minerals, vitamins and oxygen around which help us to remain fit and healthy.

A number of different trials that have been carried out where different dosages of CoQ10 were supplied to people suffering from hypertension, and it were found that their blood pressure reduced. Levels of reduction varied from trial to trial.

An example of one of the studies included 85 people, who where involved in placebo-controlled, randomized and double blind trial conducted by the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

The researchers concluded at the end of the 12-week study that CoQ10 might be safely used as a high blood pressure treatment option.

CoQ10, is well tolerated. In the same study, the side effects shown in the group that took CoQ10 where comparable to those that where on a placebo.

From study results made available, there seems to be an argument for using Coq10 in treatment of hypertension. Although, any treatment plan should be discussed with a doctor to ensure that there are not adverse interaction between medications.
