Ubiquinol Safeguards Cellular Energy Processes
Ubiquinol has many benefits, including promoting the production of energy within your cells, also called “cellular energy.” It is a naturally occurring nutrient that your body produces on its own. Ubiquinol is the active antioxidant form of Coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, and is found in all cellular systems and in almost every cell, organ and tissue in the body.
Ubiquinol plays a key role in the process of generating cellular energy molecules, known as ATP. Most of the production of cellular energy happens in the powerhouses of your cells: the mitochondria. This energy is used for the growth, repair, development, and metabolism that occurs within your cells
The body naturally makes free radicals that can damage cells and tissues if they aren’t neutralized by antioxidants. One of the places that this occurs most frequently is in our mitochondria, as free radicals are a natural byproduct of cellular energy production. The body also absorbs free radicals from the air, water, and even our food. Ubiquinol helps neutralize free radicals produced from the creation of cellular energy, metabolic processes, and the environment before they can damage cellular components like cell walls and DNA. By neutralizing free radicals and combatting their harmful effects, ubiquinol promotes cellular energy creation.
How Ubiquinol Promotes Healthy Aging
Of all the body’s organs, the heart requires the most energy. This means the heart requires a large number of mitochondria to produce the energy it needs. Because the levels of ubiquinol in the body decline as the body ages, taking a high-quality Kaneka Ubiquinol® supplement as you age can promote cardiovascular health. Ubiquinol also supports the health of other organs – including the brain, liver, and kidneys – by protecting tissues and cells from damage caused by free radicals.
Is CoQ10 the Same as Ubiquinol?
Many people have heard about CoQ10, but many don’t know that there are two types – conventional CoQ10, also known as ubiquinone, and the antioxidant form, known as ubiquinol. Ubiquinone can be turned into ubiquinol, but it takes energy and specific enzymes to perform this conversion. While the body of a healthy young person produces all the ubiquinone it needs and can easily convert it into ubiquinol, as the body ages, it becomes less efficient at this conversion process, resulting in less of the antioxidant (ubiquinol) form. Taking a high-quality daily ubiquinol supplement can increase the levels of ubiquinol in your system so that it can work as an antioxidant without the need for conversion. This can help your body in the creation of cellular energy, maintain cellular components, and support healthy aging.
