Product Information

Effective dosage. Most research on CoQ10 uses doses of 150-250 mg, sometimes split into a morning and evening dose. We prioritized products that made this dosing protocol easy. Supplements with dosages too high or too low got demoted or dropped completely. If you are a student or you have an intensive, project-oriented job, CoQ10 could be a great way to achieve better mitochondrial function in your brain and provide you with the mental energy you need to finish out your work productively. Women who took the CoQ10 supplements also showed lower levels of certain inflammatory biomarkers. Inflammatory biomarkers are substances in the blood that indicate the presence of inflammation somewhere in the body.

Unlike other CoQ10 supplements, these softgels also contain 68 mg of vitamin E, 453% of the daily value. Vitamin E has been shown to be an important antioxidant to help lower oxidative stress associated with cardiovascular disease. Some animal studies have shown that taking CoQ10 with vitamin E helps reduce inflammation, and some human studies suggest vitamin E with CoQ10 may be beneficial for heart health in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Even though this is a high dose of vitamin E, it’s much lower than the tolerable upper limit of 1,000 mg for adults. Migraine. Taking coenzyme Q10 by mouth seems to help prevent migraine headaches in adults. Taking coenzyme Q10 also appears to reduce migraine frequency in children who have low levels of coenzyme Q10. It may take up to 3 months to see any benefit. Manzar H, et al. (2020). Cellular consequences of Coenzyme Q10 deficiency in neurodegeneration of the retina and brain. It’s also been studied as a way to prevent or slow the progression of cognitive decline among elderly adults, with the goal of supporting energy production in the brain, and to prevent the deterioration of brain cells over time. Unfortunately, the brain is very susceptible to oxidative stress due to its high fatty acid content and its high demand for oxygen.Chest pain (angina). Some early research shows that taking coenzyme Q10 by mouth might reduce chest pain and improve exercise ability in people with chest pain.

Older adults. There are some potential benefits of CoQ10 when it comes to reducing inflammation and decreasing risks of age-related disease. Older adults are also at higher risk of CoQ10 deficiency since CoQ10 stores get depleted over time. While more research is necessary, older adults may benefit from supplemental CoQ10. Rodriguez-Varela C & Labarta E. (2021). Does Coenzyme Q10 supplementation improve human oocyte quality? A 2018 meta-analysis reexamined five studies investigating the use of CoQ10 supplements for migraines. The meta-analysis concluded that CoQ10 is more effective than a placebo at reducing the duration of migraines. However, CoQ10 did not appear to affect migraine severity or frequency. Protecting against age-related diseases Statin-induced myopathy. Some research suggests that CoQ10 might help ease the muscle weakness and pain sometimes associated with taking statins. Research suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction can contribute to age-related neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. These diseases are associated with free radical damage.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an antioxidant that your body produces naturally. Your cells use CoQ10 for growth and maintenance. Standard daily doses of CoQ10 range from 60 milligrams (mg) to 500 mg. The highest recommended dose is 1,200 mg. However, clinical trials have used dosages as high as 3,000 mg per day. Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance found throughout the body, but especially in the heart, liver, kidney, and pancreas. It is eaten in small amounts in meats and seafood. Coenzyme Q10 can also be made in a laboratory. We support supplements that are evidence-based and rooted in science.
