Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Coenzyme Q is sold as a dietary supplement called CoQ10 with recommended doses of 22 mg to 400 mg. It is said to boost energy and recovery from exercise. Based on its role in electron transport, explain how this might be possible.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes play important role in digesting our food to get the necessary nutrients and energy for our body. These helps in many complex reactions in our body making efficient conversions. But enzymes require coenzymes that assist in performing certain jobs like digesting carbohydrates or making energy. There are many coenzymes that are introduced artificially in the form of supplementary. Example is CoQ10. This plays crucial role in creating cellular energy that is required in almost all the tissue like heart, brain, liver, kidney etc.
