Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is essential for energy production in all of the body’s cells. When cellular energy decreases, cells die more quickly, and the aging process accelerates. CoQ10 also acts as an antioxidant, combating free radicals. A number of recent studies highlight the significance of CoQ10 for extending lifespan and enhancing the cell's ability to produce energy.
Chronic gastritis associated with H. Pylori creates oxidative stress in the stomach. A high-quality randomized placebo-controlled study examined whether Coenzyme Q10 had an effect on gastritis. Patients who received CoQ10 experienced significantly fewer inflammations in the stomach lining, fewer symptoms, and less oxidative stress compared to those who received standard treatment or a placebo.
