CoQ10 for Skin and Brain
With CoQ10 being used in a growing number of skincare products, it begs the question of if it actually is beneficial for aging skin.
As a natural antioxidant, it would make sense for it to reduce free radical damage that is common in skin as we age. But CoQ10 levels in skin are relatively low compared to organs and muscles.
Still, studies found that it can increase skin fibroblasts, leading to higher levels of collagen. It also inhibits the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can cause skin damage from UV light.
