For Mitochondrial support

Additional notes

"Statin drugs, such as Simvastatin, Atorvastatin, Lovastatin and Rosuvastatin, used for lowering cholesterol can deplete CoEnzyme Q10. CoEnzyme Q10 is a strong antioxidant with anti-inflammatory effects. It's also helps the mitochondria to create energy. As the statin depletes the CoQ10, you can be more prone to joint and muscle pain. 100mg daily of CoQ10 helps to prevent this."
