CoQ10 for Heart Problems – Do You Think It Really Helps?

There is extensive clinical evidence to prove that people suffering from heart disease can benefit a great deal from taking a coenzyme Q10 supplement. The energy requirement of the heart muscle is very large and continuous. CoQ10 is a required molecule for energy generation by every cell in our body.

Studies even show that those who are at risk of developing heart problems and those taking prescription “statin” type high cholesterol medication will experience significant positive health benefits from even a low dose of 60 mg daily.

The complete review Health Benefits of Coenzyme Q10 talks about all the benefits of CoQ10 so we won’t mention all of them here.


For example, clinical studies have shown that CoQ10 supplement improved the ability for the heart to pump blood. Studies also show that taking CoQ10 after suffering a first heart attack reduces the risk of developing a second heart attack.

Moreover, coenzyme Q10 has been shown to lower high blood pressure and reduce oxidation of fats that leads to atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).

We would say that CoQ10 is a “must-take” supplement for anyone who have heart problems or at risk of developing it. What are some risk factors for having heart problems? It would include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood sugar (diabetes) and obesity.


Recommended Dose of CoQ10 for heart problems

The dose will vary depending on the severity of the heart disease. A dose as low as 60 mg daily was shown to be helpful. Dose can go as high as 900 mg daily for those suffering from advanced heart failure.
