Product Overview
After the age of 30, natural levels of CoQ10 begin to diminish. By the age of 80, your CoQ10 levels may be lower than they were at birth. Further loss may come from stress, illness and medications such as statin drugs, oral hypoglycemic drugs and beta-blockers. Many doctors fail to inform you of these facts. Many alternative practitioners, however, believe that given CoQ10’s potential for protection and its good safety record, most older people would be wise to take CoQ10 supplements.
Every cell and system is distressed by an energy shortage due to insufficient CoQ10. In particular, deficits of CoQ10 are associated with a higher risk of certain diseases and disorders, including:

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also known as ubiquinone, is a cellular energy booster and powerful antioxidant, first identified in 1957 and widely used in Japan for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. It is a powerful, fat-soluble vitamin-like substance synthesized in the membranes of cells. It is found primarily in mitochondria, the cell’s center of energy production, and is an essential part of the energy-producing process known as the electron transport chain. It acts as kind of a spark plug, assisting in the generation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) the body’s basic energy currency.
Without adequate CoQ10, cells cannot make the energy they need to sustain life. Eventually, your whole body suffers the malaise of low-energy production. Research has shown that because CoQ10 is an essential component of every cell, supplemental CoQ10 has a wide range of potential uses — from helping a failing heart work better to slowing cognitive decline.
CoQ10 is most highly concentrated in heart muscles because of high energy needs there. Research suggests that CoQ10 may be beneficial for improving many aspects of cardiovascular health. Given CoQ10’s essential role in heart health, it’s alarming to realize that the most widely-prescribed cholesterol-lowering drugs, statins such as Zocor and Lipitor, can severely deplete CoQ10.
CoQ10 can energize brain cells, research shows. The brain is especially compromised by a deficit of CoQ10. Reduced levels of CoQ10 (and ATP) can cause aging brains to become more sluggish. Memory and other mental abilities decline, and the brain may become more vulnerable to age-related neurodegenerative diseases. Replenishing CoQ10 rejuvenates brain functions and may even reverse brain degeneration, studies show.
What Makes Stop Aging Now's CoQ10 Superior?
-
Our CoQ10 is made from the 100% natural trans-form variety, while many supplements contain synthetic CoQ10, which is often derived from tobacco leaves and proven to be much less effective. Not all CoQ10 is the same. The more expensive natural or trans-form, identical to the body's own, is superior to the cheaper, often impure synthetic form.
-
Our CoQ10 is a highly bioavailable formulation. The natural trans-form variety of CoQ10 that we use is more readily absorbed than synthetic varieties.
General CoQ10 Dosage Guidelines
CoQ10 is widely researched and very well tolerated. While there is no established ideal dose for CoQ10, studies have used doses of CoQ10 ranging from 30 mg to 1,200 mg. We recommend doses ranging from 30 mg to 600 mg daily for adults. The general guideline is 1 mg per pound of body weight. So if you weigh 150 lbs., you should take 150 mg. But this is a general guideline. Most people take 100 to 200 mg daily. Statin drug users may want to take higher dosages (in the range of 200 to 600 mg daily), as statins have been shown to deplete CoQ10 levels.
Please remember that health conditions can be both serious and complex, and it is thus very important that any supplement use be discussed with your doctor. Also, do not hesitate to contact our Certified Nutrition Experts for additional recommendations.

All of our premium products are made in the USA in a state-of-the art FDA inspected facility to meet the stringent standards of US Pharmacopeia (USP) for quality, purity, potency and disintegration. Most supplements are made to far lower standards. Additionally, and unfortunately, many companies keep their costs down by outsourcing production to third world countries where quality controls and regulations are virtually non-existent. Whether you take our premium products or those from another company, we strongly encourage to you to be sure to know where they are manufactured. If the bottle label doesn't say "Made in the USA", they are most likely not. Our manufacturing facilities are located in California, Illinois and Florida. We invite you to take a virtual tour of one of our facilities.
