What is the source of Coenzyme-A?
There are no food sources for Coenzyme-A as a chemical compound. The cells of the body manufacture Coenzyme-A from ATP, cysteine, and pantothenic acid. All three of these Coenzyme-A components must be provided by way of the foods or synthetic dietary supplements digested by the body. At this time, Coenzyme-A is not commercially available in the form of a one compound synthetic dietary supplement. Further, it is doubtful that a compound of Coenzyme-A would be an effective dietary supplement because the digestive process would break such a compound back down into its components before it entered the bloodstream. Coenzyme-A is not manufactured during the digestive process, it is manufactured in the cells of the body! This is why each of the nutraceutical formulas offered by Coenzyme-A Technologies Inc.TM is based upon a balanced combination of components that are used by the cells of the body to manufacture and utilize Coenzyme-A.
