Supplementation with CoQ10 supported increased treadmill performance (time to exhaustion) vs. placebo group. Within the cells' energy-producing mitochondria, an increased concentration of CoQ10 both (1) increased oxygen consumption for production of ATP (chemical energy) and (2) lowered oxidative stress.

The gut-brain barrier in major depression: Intestinal mucosal dysfunction with an increased translocation of LPS from gram negative enterobacteria (leaky gut) plays a role in the inflammatory pathophysiology of depression – Source: Neuro Endocrinology Letters, Feb 18, 2008
Study finds significant association between enterobacterial infection (leaky gut), immune/inflammatory response, and major depression – likely explaining the 'sickness behavior' of many depression patients (“fatigue, autonomic and gastro-intestinal symptoms, and a subjective feeling of infection”). Recommends testing/treating depression patients for leaky gut. [Source: Neuro Endocrinology Letters, Feb 18, 2008] |
