This data strongly suggests that acute viral infections rapidly deplete magnesium stores, and failing to replenish this critical mineral leaves the nervous system and mitochondria vulnerable to long-term dysfunction
Cellular metabolism slows, and energy production is reduced when mitochondria are damaged or a threat from an infection or toxin is sensed

A randomize, double-blind, placebo controlled trial where patients were administrated with 100mg CoQ10 daily (N=30) or placebo (N=30) for 12 weeks showed that treated patients have: Significantly lower fasting plasma glucose Significantly lower serum insulin concentration Significantly lower total cholesterol concentration Significantly lower LDL-cholesterol concentration So Overall, CoQ10 supplementation for 12 weeks among subjects with PCOS had beneficial effects on glucose metabolism, serum total- and LDL-cholesterol levels
When NAD levels decline, it results in a decrease in cellular energy, which can also be described as mitochondrial dysfunction a condition that is implicated in most chronic illnesses, including diabetes, autoimmune disorders, Alzheimers, multiple sclerosis and many more
