The CoQ10 heart health connection...
Your Gums, Your Heart, and CoQ10
FACT: As you grow older, your body produces less CoQ10 naturally.
FACT: Statin medications prescribed to reduce cholesterol, further reduce bodily CoQ10 levels and can cause muscle aches and pains.
FACT: People with gum disease (i.e. gingivitis, periodontal disease) typically have low CoQ10 levels.
FACT: People with periodontal disease may be at twice the risk of having a fatal heart attack.
FACT: People with periodontal disease are also at higher risk for stroke, diabetes and emphysema.
Impact of Untreated Gum Disease
The effects of untreated gum disease can reach far beyond oral health. When gums are diseased, any injury to the gums – even routine brushing and flossing – can provide a port of entry for microbes from the mouth to enter the bloodstream. Oral bacteria can then travel to other organs and body systems, causing infection and inflammation, especially in the heart, arteries and lungs.
You Can Protect Yourself!
If you are taking statin medications, are experiencing some type of gum disease, and/or are over 35 years of age, there is a good chance that you may have low levels of CoQ10. Supplementing with CoQ10 and using oral care products with CoQ10 can be very beneficial in promoting good oral health along with general well being. CoQ10 supplements can also help alleviate the aches and pains assocated with regular use of statin medication.
