      Is it worth the extra money for the ubiquinol? It cost about 4x more

      i think it is because it is far more absorbable from what i understand. so in order to get as much coq10 from normal you would still have to take as much as you would with less ubiq. i could be wrong though but i use the ubiq version myself

      Default Re: CoQ10 vs ubiquinol

      Guns you are right but the question is how much CoQ10 = how many MG of ubiquinol. I take 200 mg of CoQ10 and call it a day.

      From scientific wellness:

      Is ubiquinol biologically superior?
      It is claimed that ubiquinol is the “biologically active” form of CoQ10 and thus superior. However, both ubiquinol and CoQ10 have distinct physiological functions and are both important biologically. Notably, CoQ10 is produced in the body and can then be easily converted to ubiquinol if required. And supplementation with CoQ10 will significantly raise ubiquinol levels (15).

      Summary: There is no evidence to suggest ubiquinol is biologically superior.

      I am pretty sure you are right. Still undecided which one to get. CoQ10 is about 4x or 5x cheaper.

      I use the ubiquinol as well. It's a lot more expensive, but from what I understand much better absorption. Although, I am curious how much CoQ10 = how much ubiquinol.

      I get the Qunol at sams. Ya, its expensive. Maybe it would be cheaper to just triple the dose of the regular Co Q 10.
      They do the same thing with Turmeric. You can buy the more absorbable turmeric for about 10X as much $ as regular turmeric.

      Default Re: CoQ10 vs ubiquinol

      Well I found this.

      1. Is ubiquinol more effective?
      Currently there are about 11 human clinical studies of ubiquinol (1-11) while there are hundreds of clinical studies of CoQ10 (12). This is important because it is CoQ10, not ubiquinol, which has a wealth of evidence supporting its efficacy and safety for a wide range of uses.

      The only clinical study directly comparing CoQ10 to ubiquinol for a health issue (dry mouth) found no difference in terms of clinical effectiveness at an equivalent 100 mg dose of each (1). And a study of ubiqinol in fibromyalgia found benefit on fatigue, but not pain symptoms (13). In contrast, CoQ10 has been shown to result in clinical improvements in both pain and fatigue (14).

      It is also claimed that ubiquinol is more effective thus you need to take less. However, clinical studies tend to use doses ranging from 100 mg to 450 mg of ubiquinol daily, which is no less than those typically used for CoQ10.

      Summary: There is currently no evidence to suggest low-dose or an equivalent-dose of ubiquinol is clinically more effective than CoQ10.

      2. Is ubiquinol biologically superior?
      It is claimed that ubiquinol is the “biologically active” form of CoQ10 and thus superior. However, both ubiquinol and CoQ10 have distinct physiological functions and are both important biologically.
