Co Q-10 plays a role in the body’s production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the basic energy component of the human cell.** Co Q-10 is essential to the production of energy by almost every cell in the body, even helping the body to convert food to energy.** In quantities of at least 360 mg per day, Co Q-10 may also prove to be important for cognitive function and nervous system health.**

The Co Q-10 formulas shown here all feature Q-Sorb™, a natural, highly bioavailable form of Co Q-10 — identical to the Co Q-10 that is naturally found in the body. Q-Sorb™ is an exclusive formula that includes major nutrients and antioxidant power, to ensure potency and purity. Puritan’s Pride Q-Sorb™ is hermetically sealed in rapid release softgels, so it can be easily absorbed. Our Co Q-10 is often provided in softgel form to boost the rate of absorption.

Although Co Q-10 is naturally found in every cell in the human body, scientific studies indicate that Co Q-10 levels have a tendency to decline as we age. Those taking Statin medication for their cholesterol should be especially aware of how much Co Q-10 they are getting from their diets, since Statins can reduce Co Q-10 levels in the body.1 A review study found that eight out of nine controlled clinical trials with Statins resulted in significant depletions of Co Q-10 levels.2 So, the benefits of a Co Q-10 supplement may be particularly important for Statin drug users.
