What Is CoQ10? Benefits, Dosage, and Side Effects Explained

Are you feeling tired, winded, or wondering if your heart needs more support? 💓 You may be low on CoQ10—a vital nutrient your body needs to produce energy at the cellular level. In this video, I’ll explain what Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) really is, how it powers your heart, who should consider taking it, and what forms and doses are best.

As a clinical pharmacist with 36 years of experience and board certifications in pharmacotherapy and psychiatry, I’ve seen firsthand how CoQ10 can help people—especially those with heart failure, fatigue, or on statins—feel stronger, more energized, and more resilient. If you’re over 40, on cholesterol meds, or just want to protect your heart long-term, this video is for you.
