What is the difference between ubiquinone and ubiquinol?

They are the two chemical forms of CoQ10. Solgar explains that ubiquinone is the oxidised form, which the body transforms into ubiquinol, and that ubiquinol turns back into ubiquinone as it carries out its role in the body. This product provides ubiquinone.

Is Solgar CoQ-10 30mg Softgels suitable for vegetarians?

No. The softgel shell contains gelatin (from bovine), so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. Solgar also makes CoQ-10 30mg in a vegetable capsule, which has a hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose shell.
