Description
Vitacost Synergy Ubiquinol CoQH 100 mg is a once-daily ubiquinol softgel for adults who want the active form of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in a mid-range strength. It is available in 60 and 90 softgel bottles.
What is ubiquinol CoQH?
Ubiquinol CoQH is a stabilised form of CoQ10. CoQ10 is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like compound found in every cell of the body. It is used by the mitochondria, the "power plants" of cells, to produce energy, and it is found in highest concentration in organs that need large amounts of energy, such as the heart. CoQ10 also functions as an antioxidant, helping protect cells from free radical damage.
The body produces CoQ10 on its own, but levels decline over time, with a steady decrease beginning after age 30. Ubiquinol is a reduced form of CoQ10 (ubiquinone), the form directly used in human metabolism as a lipid-soluble antioxidant. That is why many shoppers look specifically for a ubiquinol 100mg softgel rather than a standard CoQ10 capsule.
