Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies was asked to provide a scientific opinion on a list of health claims pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. This opinion addresses the scientific substantiation of health claims in relation to coenzyme Q10 and contribution to normal energy-yielding metabolism, maintenance of normal blood pressure, protection of DNA, proteins and lipids from oxidative damage, contribution to normal cognitive function, maintenance of normal blood cholesterol concentrations and increase in endurance capacity and/or endurance performance. The scientific substantiation is based on the information provided by the Member States in the consolidated list of Article 13 health claims and references that EFSA has received from Member States or directly from stakeholders. The food constituent, which is the subject of the health claims, is coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone). The Panel considers that coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is sufficiently characterised.

Abstract

Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies was asked to provide a scientific opinion on a list of health claims pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. This opinion addresses the scientific substantiation of health claims in relation to coenzyme Q10 and contribution to normal energy-yielding metabolism, maintenance of normal blood pressure, protection of DNA, proteins and lipids from oxidative damage, contribution to normal cognitive function, maintenance of normal blood cholesterol concentrations and increase in endurance capacity and/or endurance performance. The scientific substantiation is based on the information provided by the Member States in the consolidated list of Article 13 health claims and references that EFSA has received from Member States or directly from stakeholders. The food constituent, which is the subject of the health claims, is coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone). The Panel considers that coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is sufficiently characterised.
