Co-enzyme Q10 for Cardiovascular Health

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) levels naturally decrease as we age, a time when optimising heart health is all important.[1]

Ubiquinol is the active form of CoQ10, a powerful antioxidant that supports cardiovascular health. Vital for producing energy, CoQ10 concentrates in tissues with high energy requirements such as the beating heart. Antioxidant actions reduce free radical damage to body cells to support endothelial health and the integrity of the heart and blood vessels.[2]

Ubiquinol may help maintain CoQ10 levels at times of increased requirement and support healthy ageing.[3]
