Without Q10 there is no life
Coenzyime Q10 is one of the most important natural substances, which is also present in all of us. It is a natural substance and is very important for activitiy in every human cell. The process of Q10 is that it cooperates with producing a cellular energy. Food is the source of energy it is the main tool for functioning of the organisms. If the body wants to use that energy it has to transform that food into suitable form – cellular energy. The lead role in the transformation has Coenzyime Q10. Q10 also insures that the body has a stable energetically level, so the whole system will be able to function normally.

Q10 helps to stop development of many diseases
For example by heart-vein diseases – also by Alzhimer's disease and Parkinson's disease -, migraine, diabetes, infertility by men another diseases. The last researches are showing that Q10 is helping by formation of the grey eye membrane.

Body produce less Q10 after thirtieth
In human body is about two grams of Q10. The most part of Q10 is synthesizing in the body but the affect of that process starts to decline after 30.th year. That is shown in the most vital organs such as heart, which in average 20 year old person contains in one kilogram 110 milligram of Coenzyime Q10. By 60 year old person contains only around 60 milligrams and at higher age even less. Between the aging the negative affect on synthesis of Q10 are also other activities such as using pills for lowing the cholesterol in blood, stress and smoking. People get by eating their food only around three to six milligrams of Q10 per day, so we must use other sources, for example with different food supplements. With adding Q10 to other food products we compensate Q10, which was removed because of technological remaking of the food. In fatter food we can notice there is a higher amount of Q10.

Bioaccessibility and efficacy of Coenzyime Q10
Because Q10 is fusible only in fat, the body has the problem to absorb and use the Q10. Most of Q10 gets eliminated from the body before it gets in to the blood. For improving the bioaccessibility of Q10 the experts developed oil pills. That new form of Q10 is found also in our food products such as milk and yoghurt.

Confusion on the market
Advantage of fusible forms of Coenzyime Q10 are not only in joy of consumers but there is a lot of sellers who are telling that they are selling products with fusible Q10, but in thruth the food is without it. That creates a lot of confusion on the market, because the difference among  questionable and good product is troubling also for pharmacist and not only for consumer. The researches of Q10 are directed on one side in finding the efficacy of preventing diverse illness and by other side on decreasing of the bioaccessibility. But we can also do something for bigger efficacy of the products with Q10. The research has shown that body can use that Coenzyime easier, if we divide one bigger meal on smaller meals.
