What’s your thoughts on Qo10 supplements

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supplements are often recommended for supporting mitochondrial health, which is important for cellular energy production. This compound is particularly noted for its role in enhancing fertility in both men and women by improving the quality of eggs and sperm. Andrew Huberman suggests dosages between 100 to 400 milligrams per day of CoQ10 to potentially improve fertility outcomes 1.

CoQ10 is also discussed in the context of general mitochondrial health. It is involved in electron transport in the mitochondria, which is crucial for ATP production, or energy supply in cells. CoQ10 has been studied extensively and is considered very safe, even at high doses of up to 2400 milligrams daily without harmful effects 2. For general mitochondrial support, it's suggested to take around 200 milligrams daily, possibly with meals containing fat to enhance absorption 1.

Dr. Craig Koniver, a guest on an episode, shares that CoQ10 can help with specific physiological issues like migraines, highlighting its benefits beyond fertility 2.
