Ubiquinone
(CoQ10) levels within the body typically begin decreasing
as early as age 20, suggesting that it has a close connection
with aging. Additionally, the body’s
ability to convert these declining levels of CoQ10 into
ubiquinol is also diminished with age. Without proper
levels of these vital substances, the body produces less
energy and lacks a strong defense against oxidative stress.
Inadequate
levels of ubiquinone and ubiquinol in our plasma and tissues
may lead to fatigue as well as a number of age-related
conditions. Additionally, ubiquinol levels
have been shown to be reduced in individuals with cardiovascular,
neurological, liver- and diabetes-related conditions.
As
the body begins losing its natural ability to maintain
optimal levels of ubiquinone and ubiquinol, the most efficient
way to restore healthy levels of these nutrients is through
supplementation.
For those who are still able to convert
ubiquinone to ubiquinol, supplementing with CoQ10 should
be sufficient. However,
those who are over 40 years old or suspect their ubiquinol
production may be diminished due to disease or oxidative
stress should consider supplementing with ubiquinol (KanekaQH™)
to raise their plasma levels most efficiently.
