Box 30520 Tucson, AZ 85751 www.naturallyhealthymagazine.com BY THE PUBLISHER OF GOURMET NEWS By Tim McMahon, Sales Director, MTC Industries Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is naturally pro- duced by the human body, and is necessary for the basic functioning of cells. CoQ10 lev- els are reported to decrease with age, but tak- ing CoQ10 supplements can help maintain a healthy cardiovascular system. SEDDS CoQ10 is made through an all-natural fermen- tation process and the unique Self Emulsified Drug Delivery System (SEDDS) technology. MTC Industries provides SEDDS CoQ10 in easy-to-swallow, finest-quality softgels produced from a state-of-the-art manufactur- ing facility. CoQ10 is found in the mem- branes of many organelles; its primary MTC SEDDS Q10 Softgel Has Clinically-Proven Bioavailability function in cells is generating energy, and the highest concentration is found on the inner membrane of the mitochondrion. SEDDS technology works by converting poor water-soluble CoQ10 into nano-sized particles. By taking oil-based products and applying this technology, MTC can make ingredients highly water-soluble. This process results in a product with three to five times higher bioavailability and ab- sorption into the body's vital organs. The fact that almost 40 percent of the new drug compounds are hydrophobic (not water-sol- uble) in nature implies that studies with SEDDS will continue, and more nutrients and drug compounds formulated as SEDDS will reach the natural products and pharma- ceutical markets in the future. There are many possible benefits of CoQ10 supplementation. It's been known to enhance mitochondrial functions, support weight management, promote healthy car- diovascular activities, and support healthy cell growth. In a recent double-blind clinical trial comparing the relative bioavailability between MTC SEDDS Q10 and other most popular brand of CoQ10 in 24 human sub- jects, MTC softgel was proven to have a much higher bioavailability than that of the brand A softgel, with a relative bioavailabil- ity of approximately 287 percent.
