A. Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q10, CoQ10) and Ubiquinol (QH) are closely related compounds naturally occurring in the human body. CoQ10 is converted to its active form, QH, as a necessary and essential step in the production of cellular energy. The conversion rate of CoQ10 to QH tends to decline with age, resulting in lower serum levels of QH. A genetic trait in the human population has also been linked to impaired ability to conduct this conversion.

A. Cellular respiration is a multi-step process by which calories from food are converted into cellular energy and stored in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Ubiquinol is a powerful antioxidant which contributes to this energy production inside cells.†

A. The ubiquinol is derived from yeast fermentation. The material undergoes extensive purification processing, including extraction and filtration steps that remove all yeast proteins generally associated with yeast allergies.
