What this Supplement is
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat-soluble compound found inside the energy-producing part of cells—also known as the mitochondria. There are two forms of CoQ10: ubiquinol and ubiquinone. Ubiquinone is the form found in most CoQ10 supplements. But ubiquinol is the form of CoQ10 that’s been studied for the role it plays in helping to maintain heart function. Ubiquinol helps support heart function and cellular energy production.† And it may be especially important for people taking cholesterol-lowering statin drugs, which can reduce CoQ10 production in the body. With 100 mg of ubiquinol, these easy-to-swallow softgels are an easy way to show your heart a little extra love.

Questions? We've got answers.
What is ubiquinol?
In the body, CoQ10 exists either in its oxidized form known as ubiquinone, or in its reduced form known as ubiquinol. When oxidized CoQ10 (ubiquinone) is used by the body, it is converted to the ubiquinol form. In the same way, reduced CoQ10 (ubiquinol) is converted to ubiquinone when it carries out its role in the cellular energy production process in the body.†
What does CoQ10 help with?
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like compound produced naturally in your body. Found in nearly every cell in the body, CoQ10 is concentrated in organs that require the most energy—such as the heart, liver, muscles and kidneys. CoQ10 is concentrated in these organs because it is essential to the process of producing cellular energy from the food you eat.†
How much CoQ10 should I take daily?
Although no formal recommendations exist from professional organizations for CoQ10 supplementation, most physicians recommend 100–400 mg per day.
Is Nature Made’s Coenzyme Q10 natural or synthetic?
While we cannot always verify if the raw materials of our supplier's CoQ10 are natural or synthentic, we do our best to make sure our consumers get the best quality ingredients.
