Ubiquinol 100 mg (Q10)Solgar Vitamins

Ubiquinol is the biologically active form of Co-enzyme Q10. Ubiquinone is the inactive form that the body still needs to convert into ubiquinol. Research has shown that the intake of ubiquinol, compared to an equal amount of ubiquinone, results in higher Q10 levels in the blood plasma.

In other words: Both ubiquinol and ubiquinone are valuable dietary supplements, but when using ubiquinol (the active form), lower dosages suffice. This can make a difference by a factor of 2-4.

Therefore, Ubiquinol 100 mg is more effective compared to Q10 120 mg.

Vitals sources the Kaneka Q10 raw material from America but produces the capsules in the Netherlands.

Solgar manufactures the capsules in America. These capsules then need to be transported via England to the Netherlands. Because capsules and jars take up much more space than the Kaneka Q10 raw material, the costs of importing Q10 for Vitals are significantly lower. By processing the Kaneka Q10 into capsules in the Netherlands, the production costs and therefore the selling price remain relatively low.

The ingredients of Ubiquinol are: olive oil, ubiquinol, softgel capsule (bovine gelatine, vegetable glycerine), water, emulsifier (soy lecithin), turmeric oleoresin, antioxidant (ascorbyl palmitate).
