NOW Foods Ubiquinol 100 mg

Are you looking for ubiquinol in softgel form? This NOW Foods formula provides 100 mg of ubiquinol per softgel, made with Kaneka Ubiquinol. Ubiquinol is the reduced form of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). One jar contains 120 softgels, a four-month supply at one per day.

What Ubiquinol Is

Coenzyme Q10, or CoQ10, is a fat-like substance found in nearly every cell in the body, which the body also partly produces itself. Due to its widespread presence, it is sometimes referred to as a vitamin-like substance. CoQ10 exists in two forms that can convert into each other: ubiquinone, the oxidized form, and ubiquinol, the reduced form. Both are found in supplements. This product contains ubiquinol, the form that some people deliberately choose over ubiquinone. Ubiquinol is the form present in the body as reduced CoQ10, and is therefore preferred by some users. The choice of form is mainly a personal preference for the form and formulation; ultimately, both deliver CoQ10 to the body. In the diet, CoQ10 is naturally found mainly in organ meats, fatty fish, and in smaller quantities in nuts and vegetable oils, but the amounts obtained from these sources are limited.

Kaneka Ubiquinol as Raw Material

The softgels contain Kaneka Ubiquinol, a recognized brand-name raw material often chosen for its consistent quality and clear specifications. Kaneka is one of the most well-known producers of this raw material and is used in many ubiquinol supplements. The use of a recognizable brand-name raw material makes the origin of the main ingredient transparent. Each softgel contains 100 mg of ubiquinol, a clear and fixed amount, clearly indicated on the label. As it is a single main ingredient, the formula remains simple, and you know exactly what you are getting. Ubiquinol is often offered in softgels with oil, precisely because the substance is fat-soluble and lends itself well to an oily base. A softgel also seals the oil well, which is suitable for a substance sensitive to air and light.

Fat-Soluble Softgel with MCT Oil

Since ubiquinol is fat-soluble, it is combined here with MCT oil as a carrier. MCT stands for medium-chain triglycerides, a light and neutral oil that serves as a fatty base here. The formula is short: ubiquinol as the main ingredient, MCT oil, and the components of the softgel. The softgel contains gelatin and beeswax, making this product unsuitable for vegetarians or vegans. This information, along with other details, is clearly stated on the label and further down this page.
