Coenzyme Q10Heat is one way to determine the purity of coenzyme Q10: the lower the melting point, the purer the product. The coenzyme Q10 in AIMCellSparc 360® has a melting point of 117 °F, one of the lowest in the industry. It is derived from a plant source and not buffered with unwanted fillers. TocotrienolsTocotrienols are a type of vitamin E. They are found in cereal seeds and in palm, rice bran, and barley oils. One of the contradictions that led to tocotrienol research is that palm oil, although it has a 50 percent saturated and 50 percent unsaturated fatty acid content, does not raise serum cholesterol, and even lowers it. Research shows that tocotrienols are responsible for this contradiction. There are 100 mg of tocotrienols in AIMCellSparc 360®. Like vitamin E, tocotrienols are proving to have health benefits. There have been many different studies indicating that tocotrienols reduce serum cholesterol, and recent research by Packer and Associates (Lester Packer is a well-known nutritional biochemist) indicates that tocotrienols have 40 to 60 times more antioxidant ability than alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E). Fish OilThe diluent (the substance that carries the coenzyme Q10 and tocotrienols) in AIMCellSparc 360® is fish oil. This is an important point, as coenzyme Q10 is fat-soluble, which means that it requires fat to be absorbed by the digestive tract. Dr. Karl Folkers, the doctor responsible for much of the research on coenzyme Q10, has recommended that coenzyme Q10 be dissolved in oil. The fish oil used in AIMCellSparc 360® is derived from cold-water fish. Fish oil has health benefits. Epidemiological studies have shown that in populations where large amounts of fish are consumed, there is little evidence of heart disease. A report in the June 1992 issue of Seminars in Arthritis and Rheumatism, noted that "Many studies have shown beneficial, albeit modest, effects in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis . . . Further study on the efficacy of dietary fish oil supplementation in the treatment of specific rheumatic diseases is warranted." Because the coenzyme Q10 used in AIMCellSparc 360® is so pure, it has a relatively low melting temperature. This will not hurt the efficacy of the product. However, heat, sunlight, and humidity could cause the softgels to stick together. |
