An Important Correction on the Ubiquinol Absorption Claim
This product provides 100mg of ubiquinol — the reduced, active form of CoQ10 — per capsule, stated as equivalent to approximately 280mg of standard CoQ10 (ubiquinone). As covered in more detail in our complete CoQ10 guide, it’s important to correct a claim you’ll see repeated across ubiquinol marketing, including specific multiples like “8 times better absorbed”: independent research generally shows no significant absorption difference between ubiquinol and standard ubiquinone. Claims of dramatically superior absorption typically trace back to a specific manufacturer’s own research on its branded ingredient, not independently replicated findings — worth treating as one data point rather than settled fact.
We also can’t verify the claim that “many healthcare practitioners in the UK now recommend Ubiquinol specifically” over standard CoQ10 for statin users — this isn’t something reflected in NHS or NICE guidance, and it’s worth reading with appropriate scepticism. What is genuinely true: statin medication reduces the body’s natural CoQ10 levels, which is why some people discuss CoQ10 — in either form — with their GP alongside statin therapy. Whether supplementation reliably resolves statin-related muscle discomfort specifically remains genuinely uncertain in research, not an established, guaranteed benefit.
This formulation includes vitamin B1 (thiamin), with an established role in normal heart function and energy-yielding metabolism, in a medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) base to support absorption of this fat-soluble compound. Ingredients: medium chain triglycerides, ubiquinol, capsule (hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose), thiamin mononitrate, D-alpha tocopherol, silicon dioxide (thickener), iron oxide (colour).
CoQ10 has mild blood-thinning properties, worth knowing if you take anticoagulant medication. Take one vegan capsule daily with a meal containing some fat. Speak to your GP or pharmacist before starting if you take prescribed medication or have an existing health condition. Store in a cool, dry place, away from children.
