Popis: | Objectives: Two new CoQ10 preparations are on the market, of which however, very little is known about their ability to increase ATP production, the final end product in mitochondrial activity. We therefore set out to measure ATP synthesis in granulocytes of volunteers before and after a five-week administration of either Greenspeed® or Q10 Revolution® and sought to determine if this is reflected in some way to an increase in concentration and vigilance.Methods: 12 young healthy volunteers (mean age 21, 10 males, two females) were given either one of the two CoQ10 supplements over a period of 5 weeks in a cross-over randomized double-blind fashion. ATP concentration was measured in granulocytes before and after five weeks, using bioluminescence luciferase probes. In addition, the d2- concentration and stress test was used to determine mental concentration before and after each of the Q10 formulations.Results: The two Q10 formulations (Greenspeed® and Q10 Revolution®) increased the formation of ATP within the granulocytes following intake over of five-week period. This increase was highly significant following both formulations (p |
