Ubiquinol
Type: Antioxidant
There are two forms of CoQ10: ubiquinone (the oxidised form) and ubiquinol (the active form). The body has to convert ubiquinone into ubiquinol before it can be used, which is a fairly inefficient process, especially as one gets older.
With superior bioavailability compared to ubiquinone, ubiquinol plays an important role in supporting cellular energy production, promoting good heart health, and maintaining healthy cholesterol levels. Ubiquinol is widely known as one of the most powerful antioxidants, defending cells from harmful free radicals and oxidative stress. The ubiquinol form of CoQ10 is the only known fat-soluble antioxidant made naturally in the body, a unique property not shared by the ubiquinone form of CoQ10.
