Many
physicians recommend a high dose of idebenone for
their patients. Kirkman offers hypoallergenic idebenone 150 mg
capsules. This
formulation was designed for individuals with special requirements and
sensitivities.
Idebenone
is an analog (variation) of Coenzyme Q10
(CoQ10), a necessary component of the energy producing process of every
cell.
No other substance can be substituted for it, and without it there
literally is
no life. In order for the body to produce an immune response, a
constant supply
of energy is required, and to produce this energy, a continuous and
adequate
amount of CoQ10 must be present. CoQ10 also has very strong antioxidant
power.
Antioxidants protect against free radical damage. Simply defined, a
free
radical is a highly reactive molecule that can bind and damage (or
destroy)
body cells. Oxidative free radical damage is what makes us age.
Antioxidants
can help neutralize free radicals. Antioxidants seem to work best in
combination, and CoQ10 works synergistically with other antioxidants,
such as
vitamin C, vitamin E and beta-carotene.
Some
doctors recommend idebenone because:
-
Studies show that idebenone supports cell energy.
-
Idebenone may offer protection against excitatory
amino acid neurotoxicity from ingestion of certain ingredients through
the
diet, such as MSG, artificial sweeteners, canned soups and meats and
spices.
-
Idebenone supports mitochondrial function.
