Higher Nature Co-Enzyme Q10
Brand: Higher Nature · Form: TABLET [E0155] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Co-Enzyme Q10 is a widely used supplement, but data for this specific product is limited. Our assessment is based on the ingredient data available, which is for Calcium, not Co-Enzyme Q10. For this product, specific health claims and mechanisms of action are not directly supported by the data provided.
How it works
Based on the data provided, we cannot describe how Co-Enzyme Q10 works. The available data describes how Calcium works, which is a different ingredient. Calcium supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS]. You should note that this information does not apply to the Co-Enzyme Q10 product you asked about.
Safety profile
The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements. For the ingredient Calcium, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels of calcium in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Data not available for Co-Enzyme Q10 side effects or report counts.
Our recommendation
We cannot make a recommendation for Higher Nature Co-Enzyme Q10 because the data provided only covers Calcium, not Co-Enzyme Q10. You should look for a product with a complete ingredient profile and published research. If you are considering a calcium supplement, be aware it can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. For Co-Enzyme Q10 specifically, the data is not available to guide a recommendation.
