  • A systematic review found mixed results on the impact of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supplementation on oxidative stress and inflammation, with some studies supporting its benefits while others did not.
  • CoQ10 significantly lowered levels of inflammatory markers, including C-reactive protein (CRP) and malondialdehyde (MDA), and increased antioxidant capacity, such as total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and serum superoxide dismutase (SOD).
