Description
Qunol Ubiquinol 100 mg is an extra strength ubiquinol softgel that contains CoQ10 already converted to its antioxidant form. Each bottle contains 120 softgels, which is a four month supply at one softgel a day.
What makes Qunol ubiquinol different?
Qunol explains that when we are young, our bodies synthesise CoQ10 well and convert it readily to ubiquinol, but the body's ability to make that conversion diminishes as we get older. The brand says this means CoQ10 supplements may become less effective with age. Qunol Ubiquinol is different because it contains CoQ10 that has already been converted to ubiquinol, the antioxidant form that fights excess free radicals and can help protect the body's cells from damage.
Ubiquinol and heart health
Your heart needs a constant supply of energy and has the highest concentration of ubiquinol of all the tissues in your body, according to Qunol. The brand states that supplementation with ubiquinol has been shown to improve oxygen utilisation and energy production in heart muscle cells, and that ubiquinol may also support the health of vessel walls and help maintain healthy blood pressure levels.
Ubiquinol and statins
Qunol notes that statin medicines, which many people take to lower LDL cholesterol, have also been shown to lower ubiquinol levels, and that regular supplementation can help statin users maintain optimum ubiquinol levels. If you take a statin, speak with your doctor or pharmacist before adding any supplement and do not change your medication yourself.
