UBIQUINOL WITH KANEKA UBIQUINOL - contains the reduced form of coenzyme Q10. Both ubiquinol (CoQ10-H2) and ubiquinone (CoQ10) are metabolically active. CoQ10 levels in the heart and body naturally decline after age 40 and the body’s capability to convert CoQ10 to Ubiquinol is reduced. Each form has unique roles in cells relating to antioxidant actions, supporting healthy heart function and enhancing energy production.
UBIQUINOL FOR HEART HEALTH - Ubiquinol helps support heart health and enhances cellular energy production needed for our hearts.
ESSENTIAL FOR ENERGY PRODUCTION – Coenzyme Q10 helps support mitochondria to enhance cellular energy production. CoQ10 is a key component in the pathway to produce ATP for energy. Mitochondria are our body’s primary energy source. Levels of CoQ10 may decline as a healthy person ages.
HELPFUL TO STATIN DRUG USERS - statin drugs for high cholesterol have been shown to reduce the body’s CoQ10 levels. Statins work by blocking the biosynthesis of cholesterol. They also block the production of CoQ10 which leads to reduced ubiquinol levels. CoQ10 levels may drop due to normal aging and to cholesterol-lowering statin drugs.
BIOAVAILABILITY – Ubiquinol may offer improved bioavailability in aging adults who may have difficulty achieving high levels of this nutrient, or those concerned with nutrient absorption.
