The ageing process is inevitable for us, however following a healthy lifestyle and eating nutrient-packed foods can help us to stay active, slow the ageing process and perhaps even prevent some age-related chronic diseases.
After the age of 30, our body’s natural Ubiquinol levels start to decline so it’s important to ensure our diets contains foods rich in CoQ10 – the oxidised form of Ubiquinol. CoQ10 is converted to Ubiquinol in our bodies, which is the more absorbable form of the compound. Importantly, it is known for its anti-ageing effects.
The dietary sources highest in CoQ10 are usually meat and poultry products, however there are also many vegetarian options.
CoQ10 (Ubiquinol) is found in a wide variety of foods, however its amount is rather small. If you want to take 100mg of CoQ10 strictly from food, 20 sardines or 2 kilograms of beef or pork are required, therefore CoQ10 intake as a supplement is recommended.
There are many national brands that make products containing Ubiquinol. Ask your health practitioner or local pharmacist for the best product for you.
Please Note: Always read the label. Use only as directed. If symptoms persist consult your healthcare practitioner. Vitamin supplements should not replace a balanced diet.
