Your brain, kidneys, and muscles depend on CoQ10, too

Your brain needs energy to send signals. Your kidneys need energy to filter blood and maintain fluid balance. Your muscles need energy every time you move.

CoQ10 helps cells produce the energy these jobs require. In its ubiquinol form, it also helps protect cell membranes against oxidative damage.*

CoQ10 is vital for heart health

Your heart never stops working. Its muscle cells contain large numbers of mitochondria, the tiny structures that turn nutrients from food into energy.

Your heart relies on this process to keep contracting and circulating blood throughout your body. MDR Active Co-Q10 supplies a nutrient essential to that continuous work.*

The older you are, the more CoQ10 can benefit you, because the body makes less of it with age.*

Do you take statins?

Statin drugs, often prescribed to lower cholesterol, can also lower CoQ10 levels in the body. If you take a statin, ask your doctor about adding CoQ10 to replenish what you lose each day. CoQ10 also helps protect LDL cholesterol from oxidative damage.*

Do you want to maintain youthful vitality?

CoQ10 has been shown to protect against oxidative stress, which is related to aging, and helps support the mitochondrial function essential for repair, renewal, and energy.*

More bioavailability means better absorption

Less than 1% of CoQ10 is absorbed from the GI tract into the blood. If you don’t take foods containing fat with your CoQ10, absorption is decreased.

CoQ10 comes in two forms:

  1. Ubiquinol (in MDR Active Co-Q10) is ready and easier for the body to use.
  2. Ubiquinone (the oxidized form) is used in many other CoQ10 supplements, and your body must convert it to the active form.

The ubiquinol in the MDR formula donates electrons:

  • Inside cells, these electrons work in the mitochondria, the cell’s powerhouse, to help produce ATP for energy.*
  • Outside cells, these electrons help neutralize free radicals, providing antioxidant protection that keeps cells healthier.*

Clinically studied for superior bioavailability

MDR selects the finest ingredient sources, using Kaneka® CoQH-CF as the source of Active Co-Q10 Ubiquinol.

What a randomized, double-blind study found

Researchers compared the oral bioavailability of a single 100 mg dose of Active Co-Q10 Ubiquinol in a hermetically sealed softgel with a single 100 mg dose of standard CoQ10 powder in a two-piece capsule. Ten subjects over 60 years of age took part in this clinical trial, published in the Journal of Functional Foods.1 Compared with crystalline CoQ10 powder, supplementation with CoQH-CF® achieved:

  • Significantly higher plasma concentrations of CoQ10
  • 4.3 times higher plasma area under the curve of reduced and total CoQ10
  • 3.3 times higher plasma area under the curve of oxidized CoQ10
  • Faster peak blood levels of CoQ10

This superior solubility means it’s easier for your body to absorb and benefit from Active Co-Q10.*

Line chart of total plasma CoQ10 over 72 hours after a single 100 mg dose: the CoQH-CF softgel peaks at 0.88 µg/mL at 6 hours, while standard CoQ10 powder peaks at 0.17 µg/mL

You wouldn’t expect your car to run without fuel, so you can’t expect your cells to function as well as they could without adequate levels of Coenzyme Q10. This mighty molecule is the superhero your cells depend on for the energy that keeps your body’s machinery going, especially your heart, brain, and kidneys.*

The supporting ingredients have a job, too

MDR Active Co-Q10 includes alpha-lipoic acid, D-limonene oil, and medium-chain fatty acids as part of its delivery system.

Alpha-lipoic acid helps stabilize ubiquinol against oxidation. D-limonene, a compound found in citrus oils, helps keep CoQ10 dissolved. Medium-chain fatty acids form part of the oil-based formula that carries the ubiquinol.

Together, these ingredients help protect the ubiquinol and keep it in solution.

MDR Active Co-Q10 Supplement Facts: 100 mg Ubiquinol (as Kaneka Ubiquinol) per softgel, 60 softgels

Kaneka brings decades of experience

Founded in Japan in 1949, Kaneka has decades of experience in fermentation technology. Its CoQ10 ingredients are made through fermentation using non-genetically modified yeast. The resulting ubiquinol is chemically identical to the ubiquinol your body produces.

Published human studies have examined Kaneka Ubiquinol’s safety and absorption. In one four-week study, daily supplementation substantially increased blood ubiquinol concentrations.2

Make heart health part of your morning

Take one MDR Active Co-Q10 softgel each morning with breakfast, preferably with a meal containing some dietary fat.

Take it in the morning, not in the evening. Follow the product label and your healthcare professional’s advice.
