Solgar Ubiquinol 100 mg 50 Softgels is a food supplement providing 100 mg of ubiquinol, the reduced form of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), in each softgel. The directions allow 1 to 2 softgels a day, so a pack of 50 lasts between 25 and 50 days depending on the dose you choose.

Key Features

• 100 mg of ubiquinol per softgel: Each softgel provides 100 mg of ubiquinol, supplied as Kaneka Ubiquinol.
• Reduced form of CoQ10: Ubiquinol is the reduced form of coenzyme Q10, rather than the oxidised form, ubiquinone.
• Flexible dose of 1 to 2 softgels daily: Adults take 1 to 2 softgels a day, preferably at mealtime, so the dose can be set to 100 mg or 200 mg of ubiquinol.
• Olive oil softgel: The ubiquinol is carried in olive oil inside a softgel shell, and the pack is labelled free from sugar, salt and starch.

What is the difference between ubiquinol and ubiquinone?

CoQ10 exists in two chemical forms: oxidised (ubiquinone) and reduced (ubiquinol). Solgar explains that the body converts one form into the other as it uses it. This product contains the reduced form, ubiquinol.

Is Solgar Ubiquinol 100 mg suitable for vegetarians or people with a soya allergy?

No to both. The softgel shell is made with gelatin from bovine (cattle) sources, and the softgel contains soya lecithin as an emulsifier.

Can I take Solgar Ubiquinol 100 mg with my medication?

The label advises anyone taking medications to consult a healthcare practitioner before taking this product. Ask a pharmacist or your doctor if you are unsure.
