Life Extension Super Ubiquinol CoQ10 with PQQ, 100 mg, 30 S

CoQ10 also has powerful antioxidant properties, protecting important proteins and mitochondrial DNA from oxidation. ^7,8  Unfortunately, CoQ10 levels in the body decrease over time. ^9,10

Improved bioavailability with ubiquinol

The traditional ubiquinone form of CoQ10 is difficult for the body to absorb. ¹¹  That’s why Life Extension offers a highly bioavailable form of ubiquinol CoQ10 in a patented delivery system shown to absorb up to  8x better  than ubiquinone. ^12,13  In people taking this form of ubiquinol, high levels of plasma CoQ10 can be achieved in only four weeks. ¹⁴

Shilajit enhances CoQ10 effectiveness

PrimaVie® shilajit has been shown to promote mitochondrial metabolism, helping mitochondria convert fats and sugars into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the main source of cellular energy. ^15-17 When combined with ubiquinol CoQ10, shilajit doubles levels of CoQ10 in the mitochondria. ¹⁸  Shilajit also prolongs CoQ10’s efficacy at the cellular level by stabilizing it in its ubiquinol form and promotes greater cellular energy output by improving delivery of CoQ10 into the mitochondria.  ^18-20

PQQ Promotes Growth of New Mitochondria

PQQ (pyrroloquinoline quinone) is a nutrient that promotes the production of new mitochondria. In fact, PQQ promotes youthful cellular function in three distinct ways:

• Promotes mitochondrial biogenesis.  PQQ activates genes that promote the formation of fresh mitochondria. It also beneficially interacts with genes directly involved in mitochondrial health. ²¹
• Mitochondrial support.   PQQ's antioxidant potency and favorable gene-expression profile act to support mitochondrial defense. ²²
• Antioxidant power . PQQ is a potent antioxidant and its molecular stability enables PQQ to facilitate thousands of antioxidant reactions in the mitochondria, without breaking down, for maximum antioxidant and bioenergetic support. ²³

CoQ10 & aging

In a pre-clinical model, ubiquinol was up to 40% more effective at slowing measurements of aging compared to ubiquinone. ²⁴  In another pre-clinical study, the combination of CoQ10 and shilajit produced a 56% increase in cellular energy production in the brain—40% better than CoQ10 alone. Muscle tissue saw a 144% increase, which was 27% better than with CoQ10 by itself. ²⁵
