"It is generally assumed that normal biosynthesis, with or without a varied diet, provides sufficient coenzyme Q10." "Coenzyme Q10 deficiency has not been described in the general population, so it is generally assumed that normal biosynthesis, with or without a varied diet, provides sufficient coenzyme Q10." Vegan foods containing coenzyme Q10 include: soybean oil, canola oil, sesame seeds, pistachios, broccoli, cauliflower, oranges, and strawberries. Peanuts have the same amount of coenzyme Q10 as beef.
