Ubiquinol is the reduced (active antioxidant) form of Co-Q10, the form which is directly used in human metabolism as a lipid-soluble antioxidant. While standard Co-Q10 (ubiquinone) supplements can be activated in the body, this activation can be less efficient in some individuals, based on age or genetics.* Ubiquinol also has superior bioavailability to ubiquinone, as demonstrated in clinical trials.*
QH-absorb™ utilizes the Q-absorb® natural proliposome lipid-soluble delivery system, which has been clinically shown in humans to increase Co-Q10 levels up to 400% (3.2x) over baseline and is 3-4 times better absorbed than chewable Co-Q10 tablets. Co-Q10 supports heart function as a component of the electron transport system, and as an antioxidant protects mitochondrial membranes and cholesterol from oxidation.*
Jarrow Formulas® ubiquinol is derived from Co-Q10 that is maufactured via a yeast-fermentation process and consists only of the natural trans configuration, the same as is biosynthesized by humans. Jarrow Formulas® supports clinical research on Coenzyme Q10.
