Product information

Coenzyme Q10 - origin, production and importance for health

Coenzyme Q10, also known as ubiquinone, is found in every living cell of our organism and is required for energy production. It belongs to the group of vitaminoids, i.e. vitamin-like vital substances, and its chemical structure is very similar to the fat-soluble vitamins K and E. Coenzyme Q10 is produced by the body from the amino acids phenyalanine and thyrosine and the B vitamins, particularly in the intestine and liver cells. Some foods also contain small amounts of Q10. Ubiquinone gets its name from the Latin word "ubiquitous", meaning "occurring everywhere", as it is found in almost all organisms.

Coenzyme Q10 can be produced by the body itself, but this natural production decreases over the course of a lifetime and is also further reduced by other factors such as chronic illness, stress, smoking, medication (especially cholesterol-lowering drugs) etc.

Our coenzyme Q10 is obtained from yeast fermentation and provides 100 mg of the coenzyme per capsule. We only use vegan, highly compatible and plant-based capsule shells made from cellulose (HPMC).

Why ubiquinone instead of the expensive ubiquinol?

Many suppliers advertise a better absorption of Q10 through the completely reduced ubiquinol form of Q10. Even if this feature sounds promising, there is no need for this form. Because:

1. There are considerably more scientific studies using ubiquinone than studies using ubiquinol.

2. As far as intake is concerned, there is no difference between ubiquinone and ubiquinol. It seems that there are no immediate benefits of using ubiquinol, as the compound is converted to ubiquinone in the digestive system anyway. At least there are no studies showing increased efficacy or similar.

3. Ubiquinone and ubiquinol switch back and forth between one form and the other in the body. It is important that good absorption is ensured. In addition, the bioavailability of both types is almost the same.

4. The International Coenzyme Q10 Association (ICQA) uses a preparation containing ubiquinone as the official scientific reference product.

5. The production of ubiquinol is more expensive than that of ubiquinone, which is why it is also expensive for consumers and scientists.

6. Ubiquinol is very unstable and reacts extremely with atmospheric oxygen, it oxidises. After oxidation, it is not worthless, but has been converted back into ubiquinone. Preventing this oxidation and ensuring that coenzyme Q10 retains its reduced ubiquinol form is extremely difficult and represents an expensive and enormous technical challenge.

7. We often read that older people in particular have a reduced ability to convert ubiquinone into ubiquinol and should therefore use a ubiquinol product. Even if this were true, it does not solve the problem because, as already mentioned, the body is constantly switching back and forth between ubiquinone and ubiquinol. This means that after the first conversion from ubiquinol to ubiquinone, the problem would immediately arise again. As the conversion of ubiquinone to ubiquinol takes place with the help of the selenoprotein thioredoxin reductase, the reduced ability to convert ubiquinone to ubiquinol can be compensated for by the additional intake of selenium.
