Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)

PQQ, a new prosthetic group with physiological functions similar to those of vitamins, is widely found in prokaryotes, plants and mammals, including food of plant and animal origins. PQQ supports the growth and development of mitochondria and stimulates rapid cell growth in the human body. With good antioxidant properties it can scavenge free radicals and reduce cell damage. Therefore, PQQ has a powerful role in keeping brain, cardiovascular system and metabolic function healthy. As the body cannot synthesise PQQ on its own, it can be supplemented through food. PQQ supplementary products on the market are targeted at brain health, sleep aid, energy supplement and pregnancy aid. Besides, they are often used with various ingredients such as MNM, Coenzyme Q10, Ginkgo biloba extract and PS.

Use

Slowing mitochondrial aging. As a powerful antioxidant, PQQ protects and increases the functionality of existing mitochondria.

PQQ also promotes the generation of new mitochondria (Mitochondrial Biogenesis), which enhances energy production.

PQQ stimulates production of Nerve Growth Factor(NGF). NGF boosts growth of nerve cells to repair damaged nerves from stroke or other injuries.
