FAQs

Costead 100 mg Capsule belongs to the class of medications called nutritional supplements used to treat various complications or long-term diseases due to Coenzyme Q10 deficiency.
Costead 100 mg Capsule has antioxidant property and prevent tissue damage, helps fight oxidative stress, slows down the effects of ageing, protects cognitive health, and improve metabolic functions and heart health.
Coenzyme Q10 is the only fat-soluble antioxidant that our body can produce. It is present in all the cells of our body, and its production is controlled by the same pathway that controls cholesterol synthesis. Coenzyme Q10 is present in many animal protein sources, vegetables, fruits and cereals. Animal hearts and livers represent the richest sources.
Two major contributing factors to a Coenzyme Q10 deficiency are age and the use of statins. As we get older, our ability to naturally produce Coenzyme Q10 reduces. Statin drugs can inhibit the body's natural production of Coenzyme Q10 during use. Statins block cholesterol synthesis, which is a key step for Coenzyme Q10 biosynthesis, and therefore it has been linked to a reduction in Coenzyme Q10 levels in the body.
Whilst everyone is different, people who have a deficiency in Coenzyme Q10 levels often experience physical fatigue and muscle weakness, even while undertaking relatively non-strenuous physical activities such as walking. Low Coenzyme Q10 levels can also cause mental fatigue, with symptoms including difficulty in concentrating and memory lapses.
