Ubiquinol and its effect on energy levels
Ubiquinol provides every cell in the body with energy so that it can function. As we age and are exposed to lifestyle stresses, our bodies’ natural levels of Ubiquinol decline as does our ability to convert CoQ10 to Ubiquinol. This may affect our energy levels.
To consume 100 mg of Ubiquinol a day you’d have to eat: 3.5 kg of beef, 120 cans of sardines or 60 avocados daily! Or you can simply try Kaneka Ubiquinol™, with over 20 years of research behind it, it’s the only quality Ubiquinol on the market naturally produced by yeast fermentation.
Ubiquinol helps with:
Cardiovascular Health
Helps maintain and promote a healthy heart2,3
Promotes vascular health3
Healthy Fertility
Protects sperm cells from oxidative damage10
May play a role in sperm cell energy production and motility10
Has been shown to improve sperm count11
Antioxidant Support
Is the most powerful-known, fat-soluble antioxidant in the body6
Is a potent antioxidant and free radical scavenger7
Energy Support
Fuels the energy-producing mitochondria found in almost all cells in our body and supports 95% of the body’s energy production4
May help relieve symptoms of fatigue5
Performance and Recovery
May boost the power production of trained athletes, enhancing their physical performance8
May lower the degree of inflammation in muscles after intense physical exercise9
Cholesterol Support
Has been proven to help maintain healthy LDL cholesterol levels in healthy people12
May help replenish decreased levels of Ubiquinol from taking statins13,14
