ATP or adenosine triphosphate is the energy source used for all body processes. ATP is manufactured through a complex process in a tiny part of the cell known as the mitochondria. Within the mitochondria, CoQ10 plays a major role in the production of energy (ATP) and as an antioxidant to help protect the cell. In order to carry out these respective tasks, CoQ10 gets converted from the ubiquinone form, which is involved in the production of energy (ATP), to the ubiquinol form, which functions as an antioxidant. Age and health deficiencies, however, can affect the body’s ability to manufacture ubiquinol from the ubiquinone form. This can lead to sub-optimal levels which can reduce energy production and weaken the body’s immune and antioxidant defenses. Supplementation with CoQ10 in the reduced, ubiquinol form, supports the body’s antioxidant requirements to help combat free radicals, while helping it to maintain healthy ATP (energy) levels.^† 

Features

• Ubiquinol from Kaneka, one of Japan’s leading manufacturers of CoQ10.
• Reduced antioxidant form, no conversion necessary; more bioavailable.
• Kaneka QH™ is stabilized through a patented process.
• All trans form; no cis isomers.
• Identical in structure to the CoQ10 produced in the body.
• Processed through natural fermentation; not synthetic.
• Easy to swallow soft gel capsule.
• Gluten free.

Benefits

• Provides a direct source of ubiquinol bypassing the need for conversion.
• Several factors such as aging, certain medications and disease state can affect the conversion of ubiquinone to ubiquinol.^†
• Ubiquinol CoQH offers improved absorption and bioavailability, especially to individuals who fall into one of the above categories and have difficulty achieving optimal levels of this nutrient.^†
• High levels of energy (ATP) are necessary for the optimal function of all body systems. Ubiquinol plays an indirect role in providing support for the production of optimal levels of ATP.^†
• In addition to its role in energy production, the main role of ubiquinol (reduced CoQ10) is its ability to help neutralize free radicals by providing antioxidant support.^†
