Pregnancy is associated with an increased susceptibility to oxidative stress.(1) CoQ10 is an essential component of oxidative phosphorylation at the mitochondrial level, and also functions to stabilize cell membranes, as well as acting as a potent antioxidant, which has been postulated to be a modulator of gene expression and free radical-induced cell damage.(2,3) Data from both clinical and preclinical studies indicate that CoQ10 is safe for use as a dietary supplement, does not interfere with the biosynthesis of endogenous CoQ9/CoQ10, nor does it accumulate into plasma or tissues.(4) Oxidative stress, and CoQ10 deficiency, has been associated with preeclampsia, a serious medical complication that may occur during pregnancy.

Prenatal Nutrition: Suboptimal prenatal diets have been associated with serious maternal medical complications and developmental delays after birth, as well as birth defects and downstream chronic health issues for the newborn.(11) While the risk of complications is higher among women whose diets are deficient in micronutrients, even a healthy, carefully planned diet may not be sufficient to meet the increased demands of pregnancy.(11) The ability of many pregnant women to consistently consume an optimal diet throughout pregnancy is also limited by factors such as fatigue, nausea, food cravings, and busy lifestyles.(11) In an attempt to mitigate the complications associated with poor diets, the American Dietetic Association has recommended that pregnant women have appropriate weight gain, that they consume a variety of foods in accordance with the Food Guide Pyramid during pregnancy, have appropriate and timely vitamin and mineral supplementation added to the diet and that alcohol, tobacco, and other harmful substances be avoided.(12) In addition, many experts recommend prenatal nutritional supplements to ensure optimal infant and maternal outcomes.(11) Pregnancy is also associated with an increased susceptibility to oxidative stress. Oxidative stress results from the imbalance between oxygen free radicals and the essential antioxidants that maintain homeostasis in the vascular endothelium.(1) An excess of oxygen free radicals can cause adverse outcomes for the mother, the developing fetus, and the child after birth.(1) The increased physiologic demands of pregnancy are associated with increased basal oxygen consumption, changes in energy substrate used by different organs, and production of free radicals that damage the maternal vascular endothelial lining cells.(1) Transitional metals, especially cadmium, which are abundant in the placenta where extensive vasculature is present, are also involved in the production of free radicals.(1) Pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia and preterm labor can result from oxygen free radical damage.(1) In addition, pregnancy complications also increase oxidative stress. Several studies have demonstrated that serum levels of CoQ10 in preeclamptic women were significantly less than those in nonpreeclamptic women.(3,5,6)

Lycopene is a carotenoid present in human serum and skin as well as the liver, adrenal glands, lungs, prostate, and colon. This micronutrient is believed to possess antioxidant and antiproliferative properties.(8,9) Lycopene deficiency has been asssociated with preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction.(10)
