Beef heart is a rich source of coenzyme Q10, known as CoQ10. According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, CoQ10 boosts your energy level, is vital for your immune system and works as an antioxidant -- fighting free radicals that damage DNA.
CoQ10 may also prevent blood clot formation, lower blood pressure, reduce fluid in the lungs and swelling in the legs, making it an important aid in preventing heart disease and heart failure.
Collagen and Elastin
Collagen is a type of protein found in the dermis -- or middle layer -- of your skin. An ample amount of collagen will keep your skin youthful and supple, warding off fine lines and wrinkles. There is more collagen in your skin than any other type of protein.
Elastin is another type of protein in your dermis, responsible for giving structure to your skin. Too little elastin causes wrinkles and sagging. Beef heart is an excellent source of both collagen and elastin.
