Gum Disease
Gum disease causes swelling, bleed- ing, pain, and gum redness.
According to
the University of Maryland Medical Center, clinical studies show that people with gum disease tend to have low levels of CoQ10 in their gums.
A few small studies found that
CoQ10 supplements led to faster healing and tissue repair.
Migraine Headaches Although the exact cause of migraines
is unclear, scientists suspect that mitochon- drial dysfunction (i.e., low brain energy
levels resulting from CoQ10 deficiency [Headache. 2007 Jan]) may contribute to their occurrence by limiting oxygen metabo- lism. Studies of CoQ10 supplementation in children, adolescents and adults show substantial decreases in the frequency of migraine episodes, number of days with migraine symptoms, headache disability, and frequency of nausea. (Cephalalgia. 2011 Jun; Headache. 2007 Jan; Neurology. 2005 Feb [100mg, 3x/day of CoQ10 supplementation reduced migraine frequency by 27% after 3 months]). CoQ10 is so effective in manag- ing migraines that the Canadian Headache Society lists it among the 11 most effective ‘drugs’ for preventing this debilitating condi- tion.
