CoQ10 is a powerful antioxidant which is of benefit for normal heart function and cellular energy production. Co Q10 is a nutritional supplement used around the world as a heart energizer. In some cases of heart problems, there is an associated deficiency of CoQ10. Co Q-10  is a strong antioxidant. Like vitamins, it is a nutrient your body must take in to feed your cells so your body can operate at an optimum level. It is present in small amounts in food, notably seafood, and is produced by all cells of the body. Japanese scientists have synthesized CoQ-10 into a raw material that is put into supplements. Many heart patients use CoQ10 supplements in dosages ranging from 30 mg a day to 100 mg a day or more.

CoQ10  benefit for the human body
CoQ10 is a naturally occurring component present in living cells. Its physiological function is to act as an essential cofactor for ATP production, and to perform important antioxidant activities in the body. In most countries, CoQ10 has been widely used as a dietary supplement for more than 30 years. Recently, the use of CoQ10 as a dietary supplement has grown with a corresponding increase in daily dosage. The published reports concerning safety studies indicate that CoQ10 has low toxicity and does not induce serious adverse effects in humans. Evidence from pharmacokinetic studies suggest that exogenous CoQ10 does not influence the biosynthesis of endogenous CoQ9 / CoQ10 nor does it accumulate into plasma or tissues after cessation of supplementation. Overall, these data from preclinical and clinical studies indicate that CoQ10 is safe for use as a dietary supplement.

Effect of smoking on levels
Concentrations of blood vitamin A, C, E, coenzyme Q10 and urine cotinine related to cigarette smoking exposure
Korean J Lab Med. 2009 Feb;29(1): Song SM, Park YS, Lee A, Cho YG, Kim DS, Lee HS, Choi SI, Lee KR. Seoul Clinical Laboratories, Seoul, Korea.
In smokers, smoking causes many disease entities including cancers, chronic pulmonary diseases and cardiovascular diseases. Passive smoking is also accepted as a carcinogen and its adverse health effects are emphasized. We measured blood vitamin A, C, E (alpha-, beta- and gamma-tocopherol), coenzyme Q10 and urine cotinine concentrations in nonsmokers and smokers. Twenty-one healthy nonsmokers and 24 healthy smokers were included in this study. Smoking status was assessed with a self-reported questionnaire. Plasma was analyzed for coenzyme Q10 and serum for vitamin A, C, E using HPLC (Agilent Technologies Inc., USA) and random urine for cotinine using LC/tandem mass spectrometry (Applied Biosystems Inc., Canada). Smokers had significantly lower serum concentrations of vitamin C than nonsmokers. No significant differences in concentrations of serum vitamin A, E, and plasma coenzyme Q10 were observed. Smokers had highly elevated urine cotinine levels. In 16 (76%) of 21 nonsmokers, urine cotinine was detected. The correlations between urine cotinine and blood antioxidants levels were not found. Neither, the correlation between smoking status and blood antioxidants & urine cotinine was found. This study shows that smokers had significantly lower vitamin C levels among nonenzymatic antioxidants, namely, vitamin A, C, E and coenzyme Q10. High detection rate of urine cotinine in nonsmokers show the seriousness of passive smoking exposure, therefore more social efforts should be directed to reduce passive smoking exposure.

Testimonials and reviews
I find that Coq10 30 mg in combination with tongkat ali works well for me, but if I take 200 mg of the nutrient along with herb, the effects are too strong.

Inquiries
Can CoQ10 and
tribulus terrestris herb be taken the same day?
     As long as the dosage of the
coq10 is less than 50 mg, and that of tribulus less than 200 mg, most people should do fine and not have coq10 side effects.

Which is more potent as an antioxidant, acetylcysteine or coq10?
     Probably acetylcysteine, but they are both helpful antioxidants.

I read an ad selling CoQ10 in capsule form as opposed to softgel with oil. CoQ10 is fat soluble, isn't oil necessary in the softgel for the CoQ10 to be absorbed and won't the CoQ10 in a capsule not be as beneficial?
   Since CoQ10 is taken with breakfast, there's always some form of fat or oil in the meal and the nutrient will be absorbed whether taken as a softgel or a capsule.
