Juvisync
Depletes
Prolonged use of Juvisync can impact 1 essential nutrient.
CoQ10
While studies demonstrate statins effectively lower LDL-C and apoB, research suggests they may also reduce CoQ10 levels. This vital antioxidant plays a crucial role in mitochondrial function, and deficiency can impact brain, muscle, kidney, and heart health. CoQ10 supplementation could be a helpful way to mitigate a potential deficiency when taking a statin therapy.

Health Impact
Juvisync-induced nutrient depletion can lead to a range of health problems
Statin-Related Muscle Pain & Fatigue
Randomized trials and meta-analyses in statin-treated patients have shown that CoQ10 depletion and/or low circulating levels are associated with muscle symptoms, while supplementation has produced mixed but suggestive improvements in statin-associated myalgia and muscle pain severity.

Low Mitochondrial Energy & Antioxidant Defense
Mechanistic and clinical studies link lower CoQ10 status with impaired oxidative phosphorylation and higher markers of oxidative stress, particularly in tissues with high metabolic demand such as myocardium and skeletal muscle.
