Energy Production & Cardiovascular Support
This special crystal free form of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supports cardiac function through mitochondrial energy production. It is also supportive of the organs requiring a lot of energy e.g. the heart muscle, periodontal tissues, and the body's defense system.
CoQ10 functions as a powerful fat-soluble antioxidant providing protection against free radicals attack.* CoQ10 is present in almost all cells, where it is necessary for mitochondrial energy production. The body’s highest concentrations of CoQ10 are found in the heart, where constant chemical energy availability is imperative.*
CoQ-CF is a unique patent-pending formula of CoQ10, food-grade d-limonene (which serves to solubilize CoQ10), and tocopherol (vitamin E). This combination creates a liquid, crystal-free solution of CoQ10 that provides enhanced bioavailability. By improving dissolution, absorption is enhanced.*
Standard Dosage: Take one capsule daily or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
