Here is a peek at the featured VTMN Packs vitamin for January 2022….
Feature: Coenzyme Q10
The name for Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinol) comes from the term ubiquitous, meaning it’s everywhere at once. Literally, CoQ10 is found in every single cell in the human body, which tells us it might just be pretty important!
It is very difficult to obtain enough CoQ10 from our diet alone because it is destroyed by heat when cooking food, and although the body manufactures a significant amount of CoQ10 when we are young, this production declines with age.
Supplements are available in two forms; the oxidized form (ubiquinone) and the reduced form (ubiquinol). Ubiquinol is the form naturally found in our bodies, so there’s no surprise that it’s the more absorbable form when it comes to supplements. However, the oxidized form is readily converted in the body to the reduced form, so there’s still a lot of debate as to which formula is the best to supplement with. Most studies have been done using the “tried and true” ubiquinone as ubiquinol was only available after 2006. At present, current studies point to ubiquinone being effective for most individuals looking to maintain good health, while ubiquinol may be more effective for those who are older and looking to use CoQ10 therapeutically to treat or reverse a disease.
As with any natural health product, you should consult your healthcare practitioner to see if this supplement is right for you.
What You Get: Each VTMN Packs order comes with enough packs to cover you for 30 days, so depending on how often you take your supplements (most of ours are taken twice a day), the total number of packs you get may be between 30 and 60.
