Jarrow Formulas’\nproprietary QH-absorb formula has been shown clinically to increase Co-Q10\nlevels by 222% (100 mg per day) and by 777% (300 mg per day) over baseline.\n Ubiquinones are a series of homologous molecules that possess a\nquinone active center and an unsaturated fatty tail. Ubiquinones are so named\nbecause they are widely distributed (i.e. ubiquitous) in nature and throughout\nthe human body. Structurally they are very similar to the menaquinones, like\nvitamin K2. The quinone group is like a courier for protons and electrons,\nwhich is the critical property that allows ubiquinones to act as antioxidants\nand as important intermediates in energy generation. The fatty tail is\ncomposed of isoprenoid subunits, which are five carbon building blocks that\nhelp all living things biosynthesize critical components like immune\nmodulators, essential oils and hormones. The number of isoprenoid units in the\nfatty tail is often denoted in the name of specific ubiquinones. For instance,\nubiquinone-10 is made from ten isoprenoid units. Ubiquinone-10 (aka CoQ10,\ncoenzyme Q10, Q) is more commonly referred to as just \"ubiquinone.\" This is\nbecause it is the most prevalent ubiquinone in almost all mammals, including\nhumans.Jarrow Formulas QH-Absorb, 100mg, 120 SoftgelsAt a Glance:The active\nantioxidant form of CoQ10Supports heart function and antioxidant\nstatusUtilizes the Q-absorb natural, proliposomal delivery system for\nenhanced absorptionDesigned for those who seek the superior absorption of\nubiquinol (QH) for cardiovascular and antioxidant healthParticularly useful\nto older consumers who may not activateCoQ10 sufficiently or whose levels may\nbe very low Supports heart function and antioxidant status.

Concern about CoQ10 levels is especially important\ndue to concern that cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) work by inhibiting an\nenzyme that is also responsible for CoQ10-ubiquinol biosynthesis. As a result,\nanyone taking statins may have reduced levels of CoQ10-ubiquinol.What is\nUbiquinol? Ubiquinone and ubiquinol (aka ubiquinol-10, CoQ10-H2, QH, \"reduced\"\nCoQ10) are intimately related, as their names suggest. Inside the body, Q\n(ubiquinone) can only achieve its important functions in energy production ,\ncardiovascular health and antioxidant protection with the help of ubiquinol\n(QH). In fact, all of the benefits that have been attributed to CoQ10\nnecessitate QH involvement. The two do their work by shuttling electrons and\nprotons back-and-forth, cyclically transforming from Q to QH and back again.\nIn energy production, CoQ10 facilitates electron transfer within mitochondrial\nmembranes to produce ATP, the body's energy currency. For antioxidant\nprotection, QH is the \"active antioxidant\" form of CoQ10. This means that Q\nthat has not been converted to QH is inactive as an antioxidant. Perhaps this\nexplains why circa 80-95 percent of total CoQ10 exists as QH in the blood and\nin healthy tissues that require its antioxidant function.Is Taking QH Better\nThan Taking Q? CoQ10 is critically obtained from the diet, but it appears that\nabsorption of Q may entail conversion to QH. This conversion occurs as early\nas in the enterocytes, the absorptive cells in the intestine, and may\nfacilitate the absorption process. Also under normal conditions there are\nenzymes that help regenerate QH from Q, in the body. Unfortunately, aging and\nillness can lead to both a reduced ability to regenerate QH because of\ndecreased enzyme activity and a decreased ability to absorb Q itself, possibly\nfor the same reason. After about age 45, total Q levels and QH levels tend to\ndecline in various critical tissues. Some physicians have even started to use\nblood and tissue ratios of QH to Q as a biomarker for age- and health-related\noxidative stress. So it may not come as a surprise that taking QH can provide\nbenefits that surpass those obtained from taking standard Q. But where's the\nevidence?QH-absorb Clinical Research Eleven young, healthy adults ingested 100\nmg of QH-absorb with food three times daily (100 mg, t.i.d.) for fourteen\ndays. Blood levels of total CoQ10, oxidized CoQ10 (Q) and reduced CoQ10 (QH)\nwere measured at baseline and after fourteen days. This regimen of QH-absorb\nconsumption resulted in a 777 percent mean increase of total CoQ10 levels\ncompared to baseline and a 100 percent increase in plasma QH levels, the\n\"active antioxidant\" form of CoQ10. Two conclusions can be drawn from these\nstudy results. First, it appears that even young, healthy individuals can\nachieve benefits from taking ubiquinol (reduced CoQ10) from QH-absorb that\nsurpass taking Q alone. Previously, it was presumed that only older\nindividuals would benefit from taking QH-absorb as it is known that starting\nabout the age of 40, QH levels begin to decrease in the body. Second, the 777\npercent increase of total CoQ10 levels measured after taking QH-absorb is more\nthan double the levels achieved by even the best Q supplements. This suggests\nQH-absorb is at least twice as efficient in raising blood CoQ10\nlevels.Ubiquinol (QH) is Safe Scientists have understood the value of QH for\ndecades. It has just taken that long to figure out a way to stabilize QH so it\ncan be formulated into a nutritional supplement product. Toxicity studies have\nshown little concern with taking QH directly, even at high doses. Plasma QH\nlevels appear to plateau after two to four weeks of daily ingestion and then\nreturn near to baseline two weeks after daily ingestion is discontinued. It\nalso appears that supplementation with QH does not reduce CoQ10 biosynthesis\nin the body. Jarrow Formulas QH-absorb is made with ubiquinol (QH) the more\nbioavailable, active-antioxidant form of CoQ10. It utilizes the Q-absorb\nnatural, proliposomal delivery system for enhanced absorption beyond that of\nQH alone.About Jarrow Formulas Jarrow Formulas' complete line of over 350\nnutritional products includes vitamins, minerals, probiotics, standardized\nherbal concentrates, amino acids, enzymes and enteral nutrition products.\nCustomers can be assured of purity, value and potency when choosing these\nproducts.What's in the Box Jarrow Formulas QH-Absorb, 100mg, 120\nSoftgels.Other Products from Jarrow Formulas\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eCardiovascular Function - Co-Q10 is found in energy-rich tissues like the heart and supports mitochondrial health \u0026amp; energy production, the health benefits of which support cardiovascular function.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eBetter Absorbed - Ubiquinol, the reduced, active, antioxidant form of Co-Q10, is significantly better absorbed than regular Co-Q10.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eClinical Results - Jarrow Formulas proprietary QH-absorb formula has been shown clinically to increase Co-Q10 levels by 222% (100 mg per day) and by 777% (300 mg per day) over baseline.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eConvenient Softgels - Each softgel provides 100 mg of ubiquinone.
