Coenzyme Q10 has been called one of the miracle nutrients of our time, and for good reason. Interest in this nutrient is now skyrocketing, with large, multicenter Phase III clinical trials scheduled in Parkinson’s, Huntington’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, and the publication this past June of a 200 page special issue of the journal Mitochondrion entirely devoted to coenzyme Q10. And yet for the last 30 years coenzyme Q10 has only been available as a supplement in its oxidized form, called ubiquinone. Now the antioxidant form, ubiquinol, has been made available as a stable, effective supplement for the first time.
Ubiquinol is highly bioavailable and seems to have even more striking effects than regular CoQ10. Just 150 mg per day of ubiquinol may provide the same high CoQ10 blood levels as 1200 mg of enhanced-delivery ubiquinone. When healthy volunteers in their fifties took regular CoQ10 for a year, they could not attain the plasma levels that similar volunteers attained in a mere 3 months with the new CoQ10. More...
The ratio of antioxidant and oxidized molecules predicts recovery from disease. We call this “the morbidity index.” See how vitamin C and CoQ10 ratios are key indicators of health and fitness. More...
