New Study Shows CoQ10 May Prevent Obesity-Related Health Problems

"Obesity is an ever growing problem with numerous health issues associated with it. One of those issues is called fatty liver. Fatty liver, also called steatosis, is the collection of excessive amounts of triglycerides and other fats inside liver cells. When fatty liver is left untreated, it can contribute to many other illnesses. But, a recent animal study indicates that coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) might hamper the development of fatty liver that is related to obesity.

Animal Study Suggests Positive Affects of CoQ10 on Fatty Liver

Biochemical Pharmacology published findings related to mice that were fed a high fructose high fat diet. The mice that had their diet enhanced with CoQ10 showed decreased levels of inflammatory and metabolic stress markers in their livers when compared to those that were strictly provided the high fructose high fat diet. The supplement did not seem to have any effect on obesity levels or the levels of oxidised fat in other tissues."
