Ubiquinol

Picture
Did you know your mitochondrial function is at the heart of everything that happens in your body?
Most of your cells contain several hundred mitochondria, or little energy factories that supply the majority of the fuel and energy your body produces. However, this massive energy production produces byproducts that can damage your cells and mitochondrial DNA and make your body age faster.

CoQ10 and its reduced, active form, Ubiquinol, are rare lipid-soluble antioxidants that can help protect against cellular damage from free radical byproducts in the lipid portions of your body, including your cell membranes.  Guarding against cell and mitochondrial damage helps ensure your body receives the energy it needs for the healthy function of your heart, brain, muscles, kidneys and other fuel-hungry tissues.
​

When your heart, brain and other organs receive the fuel they need for proper functioning, you help support your total body health and longevity.
While younger people tend to utilize CoQ10 without difficulty, we recommend those over the age of 30 use the active, more readily absorbable form of CoQ10, Ubiquinol.
Ubiquinol:
  • Contains Kaneka Ubiquinol as the active ingredient – the only genuine, patented ubiquinol, meticulously produced to protect against oxidation
  • Is made by an exclusive manufacturing process that utilizes biological fermentation to deliver a high-quality stabilized and high-absorption formula for reliable support
  • Comes packaged in hard capsules, rather than air-permeable soft gels, to help protect contents from oxidation

What Are Mitochondria and Why Are They Essential for Total Body Health and Longevity?

Most of your cells contain several hundred mitochondria – little energy factories that supply the majority of the fuel and energy that your body produces.

These cellular power plants create energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate from the food you eat combined with oxygen.
Tissues in your body that are more power-hungry, like your heart, brain, kidneys and muscles, have more mitochondria to help meet their needs.
You need plenty of healthy mitochondria to provide your body and organs with the fuel or energy they need to function properly.
However, in the process of meeting your body’s energy needs, your cells – and mitochondria – pay a steep price…

The intense energy-producing process creates byproducts known as reactive oxygen species (ROS). Excessive ROS will damage your cells and mitochondrial DNA and make your body age faster. As you age, your levels of damage from mitochondria dysfunction rise and your body’s natural defenses weaken.

The net result from faulty mitochondria can potentially be accelerated premature aging and onset of disease.
This brings us to the researchers’ bottom line discovery about your mitochondria: They believe most chronic disease and premature aging starts with the breakdown of your cells’ mitochondria.


When your mitochondria produce optimal levels of ATP or energy, your cells thrive and so do your organs, especially high-energy organs like your heart and muscles. And when your body has plentiful fuel for all its functions, you can often feel that extra  energy and stamina in your everyday life!

Taking Statin Drugs or These Other Popular Medications? Supplementing With CoQ10 or Ubiquinol May Make Good Sense

If you are taking statin drugs for your cholesterol, it is essential to include a CoQ10 or ubiquinol supplement in your daily regimen...
In fact, in many European countries, doctors routinely prescribe ubiquinol supplements along with statins.
But there are other medications, too, where ubiquinol or CoQ10 may offer valuable support.
If you are taking any of these commonly used drugs, it’s important to know that supplementing with ubiquinol or CoQ10 may be important for you:
  • Acid blockers
  • Allergy medicines
  • Antacids
  • Antiarrhythmics
  • Antibiotics
  • Antidepressants
  • Blood thinners
  • Blood pressure drugs
  • ACE Inhibitors
  • Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists
  • Beta-blockers
  • Diuretics
  • Cholesterol reducers (including fibrates)
  • Diabetes medications
  • Psychiatric drugs
If you or a loved one are using any of these popular drugs, I urge you to consult with your health care practitioner about starting or continuing a high-quality CoQ10 or ubiquinol supplement. 

​Why Your Entire Body Will Love Mercola Ubiquinol

This same high-quality Ubiquinol provides many potential benefits for you, too:
Ubiquinol supports heart health, especially important for women 
  • Supports optimal heart and cardiovascular health and function
  • May help boost your energy and stamina levels
  • Supports optimal energy production in the mitochondria in all of your cells
  • Helps you feel younger and reduces the normal signs of aging by helping to prevent damage caused by oxidative stress and free radicals
  • Supports healthy blood pressure levels that are already in the normal range
  • Enhances the support of your immune and nervous systems
  • Supports the health of your brain, heart, liver and kidneys by helping tissue cells generate energy and protect against damage from free radicals and oxidative stress
  • Support healthy levels of CoQ10 and ubiquinol in your body if you're taking statins or other drugs
Just one word of caution… Ubiquinol isn’t a stimulant, so please don’t expect a dramatic “surge” in energy immediately after you start taking it.
Rather, as your blood, tissue and organ levels of ubiquinol gradually rise to healthy normal levels, you’ll likely see an increase in your overall energy levels and stamina.

You have TWO options if you are under 30: CoQ10 or Ubiquinol.
However, as you age, it becomes more important to use the Ubiquinol form for several reasons:
  • Ubiquinol is more readily absorbed in your intestinal tract and is considered more “bioavailable” than regular CoQ10*
  • Your body can’t make cellular energy for your heart and other vital organs out of conventional CoQ10 – it must first be converted into ubiquinol, a less efficient process. Why wait and take the risk?
  • More than 60 research studies show the health benefits of ubiquinol, much of it peer-reviewed, human clinical studies conducted at prestigious universities
  • Studies consistently show Ubiquinol to be the form of CoQ10 that’s easier for your body to use, especially after the age of 30
  • It enables you to be less dependent on your body to convert ubiquinone to its active form, ubiquinol. (More than 90 percent of CoQ10 exists as ubiquinol in the plasma of healthy subjects)
Ubiquinol provides a strong first stage defense against cell-damaging oxidative stress and free radicals to help you reduce the typical signs of aging and optimize your health.

For best absorption and utilization, take fat-soluble Ubiquinol with food. If you select more than one reason, choose to take the higher dosage.
