CoQ10: The Spark That Turns Fuel Into Energy

What Makes Our CoQ10 - 400mg Supplement Stand Out?

Imagine every cell in your body running on a microscopic engine. CoQ10 is the spark plug—the key molecule that helps convert fats and sugars into pure energy inside your mitochondria. Without it, your engine sputters.

In addition to our CoQ10 - 100 mg per capsule, this formulation delivers a full 400 mg of CoQ10 per capsule—the highest potency we offer—crafted not for those who simply want to check a box or say they “take everything,” but for those who actually want to feel a difference. This advanced oil-based formulation supports smoother digestion and greater bioavailability, helping your body absorb more, use more, and experience the full potential of CoQ10.*

Why Consider Supplementing with CoQ10 - 400mg?

Because energy supports everything. This nutrient plays a central role in mitochondrial energy output, which many people associate with vitality, drive, and resilience.*

Energy isn’t just nice to have—it’s what lets you live, create, move, and thrive. CoQ10 supports the cellular spark behind it all, so you can keep showing up at your best—day after day, year after year.*

 When CoQ10 runs low, so does your energy—it really is that simple*  

Our mitochondria generate energy by processing fuel in the presence of oxygen—and CoQ10 supports this cellular process.*

If we compared our cellular mitochondria to an engine, CoQ10 would be like the fuel injector—a component that helps regulate and optimize the fuel conversion process.

Since energy production is foundational to cellular health, it’s no surprise that CoQ10 levels and overall energy capacity often trend together. As CoQ10 diminishes with age, it may become more difficult for cells to maintain peak metabolic performance.*

Research indicates that by age 80, up to 80% of cellular CoQ10 levels present at age 25 may be depleted. In particular, tissues like the pancreas—important for digestive enzyme output—appear to show a significant reduction. It’s understandable why digestion may feel less efficient over time. Many find that CoQ10 supplementation offers meaningful support in these areas.*

If you're over the age of 30, maintaining healthy CoQ10 levels may be one of the most overlooked steps toward supporting daily energy, long-term wellness, and future vitality.*

Looking at the above charts/graphs... No wonder we notice a difference in how we feel as we age.

  • No wonder CoQ10 has drawn interest from supplement formulators around the globe—cellular energy production isn’t exactly what it used to be.
  • No wonder so many people notice changes in how their body performs when they support their mitochondria.*
  • No wonder skin, of all things, has a way of showing us how time affects inner biology.*
  • No wonder the pancreas—an unsung hero—seems to quietly demand more attention over time.*
  • No wonder those pivotal years between 56 and 76 often tell a tale about what we’ve supported… and what we haven’t.*

Does It Matter Which Kind of CoQ10 We Take?

Some manufacturers promote the idea that reduced CoQ10 (ubiquinol) is significantly better than the standard oxidized form (ubiquinone). This claim appears more tied to marketing trends than to clear, consistent science. In practice, both forms are absorbed and utilized by the body, and conversion between them occurs naturally depending on cellular needs. What seems to matter more is **how** CoQ10 is taken—**with healthy fats and absorption-enhancing compounds** like Bioperine (black pepper extract), bioavailability may improve significantly.

However, What CoQ10 Is Taken With Does Matter

The absorption of CoQ10 may be influenced by what it’s consumed with. Nutrients such as **vitamin E**, **Bioperine® (black pepper extract)**, and **healthy dietary fats** have been shown to help enhance its uptake. Having one or more of these companions present in the stomach at the same time may support better delivery of CoQ10 into the bloodstream and ultimately into the cells. That’s one reason CoQ10 400 mg includes oil in its formulation — because that oil ensures it digests very well.

 

Summary of CoQ10 Benefits:

  1. Helps reduce mitochondrial damage and enhances energy output, which is why CoQ10 supplementation is well known to support cardiovascular function.
  2. Scientists are now discovering that CoQ10 contributes to a longer life, the result of the supplement's augmentation of mitochondrial function in brain structure and function, lung defense mechanisms, and disorders related to poor glycemic control and the metabolic syndrome.
  3. Total body health depends heavily on maintaining mitochondrial integrity.
  4. CoQ10 represents an efficient way to optimize mitochondrial output by maintaining co-enzyme Q10 blood levels in youthful ranges.

CoQ10 - Frequently Asked Questions

How Much CoQ10 Should a Person Take?

  • As a general rule, the older a person is or the less healthy a person is, the more CoQ10 one should take. 100 or 200 mg of CoQ10 per day is sufficient for a 40 year old in good health. Our CoQ10 -100 mg product is perfect at this age.
  • As one approaches 60 years of age, 300 or 400 mg daily would be better.
  • Athletes and body builders, who demand more energy out of their mitochondria, often take 1,200 mg per day to minimize the free radical damage from their intense workouts.
  • Up to 3,000 mg per day has been shown to only be beneficial.
  • Since CoQ10 is expensive, most people supplement at levels far less than these very large amounts. See our optimal dosing by age table.

What are symptoms of Low CoQ10 Levels in One's Body?

  • Tiredness. Lack of energy. Less digestive powers.

At What Age Should People Start Taking CoQ10?

  • By age 40.
  • Or at any age, if one is taking statins — because statins reduce the amount of CoQ10 in the body. (Check with your physician, however.)

If you’ve tried or researched CoQ10, you may be wondering: What’s the difference between ubiquinol and ubiquinone CoQ10? Is one better than the other? Read on to understand ubiquinol vs. ubiquinone.

The difference between ubiquinol and ubiquinone

Both ubiquinol and ubiquinone are forms of CoQ10 (co-enzyme Q10), an antioxidant and mitochondrial enzyme (chemical reaction enabler) often used to support increased energy, heart health, fertility, and overall wellness. Enzymes enable biological function and antioxidants are crucial for protecting the body’s cells against free radicals and oxidative stress, which can lead to chronic diseases. CoQ10 is both!

From a chemistry standpoint, the primary difference between ubiquinol and ubiquinone is that ubiquinol is the reduced form of CoQ10, whereas ubiquinone is the oxidized form. That means that ubiquinone has more electrons than ubiquinol. Inside the body, they change from one form to another as a part of normal function.

CoQ10 is produced naturally in the body, as well as comes from the diet. It helps to generate energy in all cells; the highest levels of CoQ10 are found in organs with high rates of metabolism such as the heart, kidney, spleen, and liver. In the body, CoQ10 molecules actually convert back and forth from the oxidized form to the reduced form and back again over and over.

Is ubiquinol better than ubiquinone?

Some researchers have hypothesized that ubiquinol is more “bio-available”. Bio-availability is a term that refers to the ability of a substance to be absorbed and used by the body. But, recent study data doesn't bear this hypothesis out in reality. A 2020 study found that there is no statistically significant difference in bio-availability between ubiquinol and ubiquinone. When consumed as ubiquinone, CoQ10 still appears in the blood almost exclusively as ubiquinol, indicating that the body is capable of easily converting the co-enzyme into its active form.

Benefits of ubiquinone or ubiquinol CoQ10

One notable thing about ubiquinone CoQ10 is its history there have been thousands of clinical trials conducted with CoQ10 (ubiquinone) — and very few with ubiquinol. (This is not to imply that ubiquinol would be less effective — it's just more expensive and therefore used less in studies.)

Ubiquinone appears to be more stable when compared to ubiquinol, and is less expensive to manufacture.

The benefits of taking ubiquinone CoQ10 include:

Using ubiquinone CoQ10 for fertility

As mentioned above, CoQ10 is an antioxidant, a compound that protects the human body’s cells against free radicals and oxidative stress.

Oxidative stress has been linked to male infertility, and is found in 30–80% of infertility cases. A man’s sperm quality often decreases as he ages; CoQ10 levels also decline with age, making high-energy functions like sperm development less efficient and more difficult. (CoQ10 levels also dip in women, affecting female fertility as well.)

As early as 1997, researchers have studied the correlation between CoQ10 and sperm health. Research has indicated that ubquinone CoQ10 supplementation can enhance fertility, possibly improving sperm concentration, motility (ability to swim), and morphology (size and shape of sperm) when taken as part of a healthy lifestyle.
