September is Heart Awareness month

September is Heart Awareness month and for good reason if you look at the stats. An estimated 56% of women and 29% of men are overweight and obese in South Africa. Other shocking facts are that 1 in 3 men and 1 in 4 women in South Africa will develop a heart condition before the age of 60 and that heart disease and stroke are the biggest non-infectious killers in our country. Up to 80% of these are due to our lifestyles and behavior and therefore can be avoided.

Heart Awareness Month is about raising awareness of heart disease and getting people thinking about their heart health and doing the relevant medical screens to establish what their medical status is and to get involved where they can, starting with their own health.

CoQ10, works in several important ways:
1. Energy booster. When energy production lags, and cells stop functioning optimally, energy-hungry organs like the heart also function sub-optimally. That’s why CoQ10 is considered to be a prime cardiotonic, and is highly recommended for people who live busy, demanding lives, or who perform regular high-intensity exercise. CoQ10 also supports post-exercise recovery.
2. Antioxidant. CoQ10 is also a powerful antioxidant,2 protecting cell structures from free radicals, and repairing free radical damage. This is a particular benefit to strenuous exercisers, as free radical activity is sometimes generated by aerobic exercise. It regenerates vitamins C and E when they become inactive due to free radical damage.
3. Cholesterol-fighter. CoQ10 inhibits the oxidation of bad cholesterol – LDL – which is what builds up in artery walls, and creates the problems; and it helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels in people who’re not yet experiencing cholesterol imbalances. It is particularly helpful to people on the statin class of anti-cholesterol medications as these block the key enzyme, HMG-CoA reductase which is required for making CoQ10 in your body.[iv] <#_edn4>
Beyond this, CoQ10 is also helpful as it relieves the muscle pain sometimes caused by statins
