Provides 100mg Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in the ubiquinol form. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), is a powerful antioxidant found in virtually all cell membranes and tissues of the body. Its main function is to serve as a catalyst to convert the food we eat into energy. The highest concentrations are found in the most energy demanding organs such as the heart, kidney, liver, brain and immune systems. CoQ10 levels naturally decline with age. It has also been shown to be low in patients with some chronic diseases such as heart conditions, cancer, and diabetes. CoQ10 is biosynthesized in human membranes and is vital in the production of energy, the vast majority of individuals who take CoQ10 Ubiquinol supplements are on them because they are also on a statin medication. Ubiquinol is a more bioavailable form of Coenzyme Q10 than the more common Ubiquinone form. The body converts Ubiquinone to Ubiquinol naturally, but that process becomes less efficient with age.
