Coenzyme Q10 in a measured softgel format, with 100 mg in each softgel. Commonly abbreviated as CoQ10, coenzyme Q10 is the sole medicinal ingredient in this formula. Gelatin, beeswax and glycerin complete the non-medicinal ingredient list, keeping the composition straightforward and the medicinal ingredient amount clearly identified.
Coenzyme Q10 Formula
The 100 mg strength refers specifically to coenzyme Q10, not the total weight of the softgel. This is a standalone CoQ10 supplement rather than a combination of multiple medicinal vitamins, minerals or botanical ingredients.
CoQ10 and coenzyme Q10 name the same ingredient. Both terms identify the compound supplied in this formulation, with its quantity expressed per softgel.
Medicinal Ingredients (per dose unit):
Coenzyme Q10...100 mg
Non-Medicinal Ingredients:
Gelatin, Beeswax, Glycerin
Recommended Dose:
Adults: 1 Capsule 2-3 times per day
Cautions and Warnings:
Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are taking blood thinners.
Q1: What is CoQ10 supplement used for?
CoQ10 supplement (Coenzyme Q10) supports cardiovascular health, cellular energy production, mitochondrial function, and antioxidant defences in adults. CoQ10 is one of the most researched natural compounds for heart health and energy support, with decades of peer reviewed clinical evidence. This naturally fermented CoQ10 softgel provides 100mg of pharmaceutical grade ubiquinone per serving, Health Canada licensed with NPN 80036419.
Q2: What is the difference between CoQ10 ubiquinone and ubiquinol?
Ubiquinone is the oxidized form of CoQ10 and is the most extensively studied and clinically validated form used in peer reviewed research. Ubiquinol is the reduced, active antioxidant form. The body naturally converts ubiquinone to ubiquinol as needed. Pharmaceutical grade ubiquinone, such as the naturally fermented CoQ10 in this formula, is well absorbed in softgel format and is the form used in the majority of clinical research on CoQ10 and cardiovascular health.
Q3: Why is CoQ10 important for cardiovascular health?
The heart is one of the most metabolically active organs in the body and has among the highest concentrations of CoQ10 of any tissue. CoQ10 supports cardiovascular health by contributing to the energy production capacity of cardiac muscle cells and helping maintain antioxidant defences in cardiovascular tissue. Research on CoQ10 supplementation consistently supports its role in maintaining healthy heart function, making it one of the most widely recommended supplements in integrative cardiovascular health practice.
Q4: How does CoQ10 support cellular energy production?
CoQ10 functions as an essential electron carrier in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, directly supporting the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the primary energy currency of every cell in the body. Without adequate CoQ10, mitochondrial energy production is compromised. Supplemental CoQ10 supports cellular energy metabolism, helps maintain mitochondrial function, and contributes to overall cellular vitality, particularly in high energy demand tissues such as the heart, skeletal muscle, and brain.
Q5: Why do CoQ10 levels decline with age?
Natural CoQ10 biosynthesis in the body declines progressively with age, with levels beginning to decrease noticeably after age 40. Certain medications, particularly statin drugs used to manage cholesterol, are also known to further reduce CoQ10 levels by inhibiting the same biochemical pathway used to produce both cholesterol and CoQ10. Adults over 40 and those taking statin medications are among those most likely to benefit from a daily CoQ10 supplement.
Q6: Can I take CoQ10 if I am on statin medication?
Statin medications are known to reduce natural CoQ10 production in the body. Many healthcare practitioners recommend CoQ10 supplementation alongside statin therapy to help maintain CoQ10 levels. Consult your healthcare practitioner before adding CoQ10 or any supplement to your routine if you are taking prescription medications.
Q7: Why is this CoQ10 in softgel format?
CoQ10 is a fat soluble compound and is significantly better absorbed when delivered in an oil based medium. Softgels encapsulate CoQ10 in a lipid carrier, improving dissolution and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract compared to dry powder capsules or tablets. Taking CoQ10 softgels with a meal containing dietary fat further enhances absorption.
Q8: Why is naturally fermented CoQ10 preferred?
This CoQ10 supplement uses naturally fermented ubiquinone, produced through a yeast fermentation process that yields a highly pure, pharmaceutical grade CoQ10 structurally identical to the CoQ10 produced naturally by the human body. Fermentation derived CoQ10 is the preferred source in pharmaceutical and clinical grade supplementation due to its purity, consistency, and structural identity to endogenous CoQ10.
Q9: Is this CoQ10 supplement licensed by Health Canada?
Yes. This product is a licensed Natural Health Product with NPN 80036419, approved by Health Canada under the Natural Health Products Regulations. It is manufactured in a GMP certified facility in Canada.
Q10: Is this CoQ10 softgel gluten free?
Yes. This product is gluten free and non GMO with no artificial colours, flavours, sweeteners, or preservatives. Please note that the softgel shell contains gelatin, making this product not suitable for vegans or vegetarians. The softgel oil base may contain soybean or sunflower oil.
Q11: How do I take CoQ10 100mg softgels? Take 1 softgel daily with a meal containing dietary fat to enhance absorption, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Taking CoQ10 with a fat containing meal significantly improves the absorption of this fat soluble coenzyme.
Q12: Where is this CoQ10 supplement manufactured? This product is made in Canada in a GMP certified facility operating under Health Canada oversight. NPN 80036419.
