Similar to PQQ, CoQ10 improves energy production at the cellular level. Taking CoQ10 with PQQ has a synergistic effect in modulating cellular signaling pathways, preventing damage from free radicals, and helping mitochondrial function.

PQQ and CoQ10 work through distinctly different mechanisms. CoQ10 is essential for mitochondrial function and abnormal CoQ10 production can lead to a host of health problem. Regarding PQQ, it does promote increases in the number or amount of mitochondria. According to scientific study, PQQ may stimulate increases in mitochondria by 10 to 20 percent.

Think of the cellular energy production process like a train.
1) The train is at its original location and loaded with food and oxygen.
2) The train is sent to its final destination where your body will take the food and oxygen, and turn it into energy.
3) The train returns to its original location with energy which your body will use, and replace it with more food and oxygen. The process then repeats.

In this example, the train is your mitochondria or powerhouses responsible for the process of converting food and oxygen into ATP energy. CoQ10 is like a supercharger that improves the speed of the train. PQQ is like a construction company that is always working to add additional cars to your train. In summary, CoQ10 improves the speed of your energy production train, while PQQ is adding and building additional capacity to your train.

Together they offer an incredible one-two punch in boosting cellular energy production. Studies conducted separately on each supplement show that they both have distinct benefits to cellular energy production, heart health and brain health.
