CoQ10, a vitamin-like, fat-soluble compound, is found in the mitochondria of almost every cell in the body. It plays a key role in the electron transport chain, a process essential for generating 90 to 95% of the body’s energy through aerobic cellular respiration. CoQ10 is also a powerful antioxidant.
However, when taken as a dietary supplement, crystalline CoQ10 is typically poorly absorbed, with only about 3% of the ingested dose being effectively utilized. To improve absorption, various forms of CoQ10 with claimed enhanced bioavailability have been introduced, but their effectiveness can vary.
MicroActive® CoQ10 provides a solution to this absorption challenge.*
This patented MicroActive® process involves complexing each CoQ10 molecule with two ß-cyclodextrin molecules in a water medium. The fat-soluble side of the molecule holds the CoQ10, while the water-soluble side ensures efficient transport through the digestive system.
When the micronized MicroActive complex reaches a cell, it disassembles, releasing a single CoQ10 molecule for efficient absorption.
Clinical studies in humans have demonstrated that MicroActive CoQ10 Complex, a 26% CoQ10 free-flowing powder, offers:*
- Consistently enhanced absorption for all users
- 24-hour sustained release
- 3.7x greater bioavailability than crystalline CoQ10
- Stable bioavailability even when blended with crystalline CoQ10 in various ratios
- The ability to potentially double CoQ10 levels within three weeks when taken in higher doses, supporting heart and circulatory health
