The CoQ10 test measures the level of coenzyme Q10, a compound naturally produced by the body that plays a critical role in cellular energy production and antioxidant protection. CoQ10 is especially important for heart, muscle, and metabolic function.
This test is commonly used to assess CoQ10 status in individuals with fatigue, muscle weakness, cardiovascular concerns, or those taking statin medications, which may reduce CoQ10 levels. Results can help guide nutritional or supplement strategies when deficiency is suspected.
