A study published in the Journal of Research in Medical Sciences tested the significance of determining if supplementing with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) would improve diabetics' blood sugar control.
The researchers involved diabetic women and gave them 100 mg of CoQ10 or placebo for 12 weeks. At the conclusion of the 12 weeks, blood pressure was reduced in the CoQ10-treated group compared to the placebo group. Most important related to the specific study their fasting blood sugar and insulin sensitivity was improved in the CoQ10 group.
CoQ10 deficiency is associated with many health problems, and supplementing with CoQ10 has been shown to help with heart failure, Parkinson's disease, migraine headaches, and statin-induced muscle aches and pains.
