Ubiquinol is active and ready for immediate use by the body and is a powerful antioxidant.
Ubiquinol is responsible for energy production in each cell of our bodies and is vital for supporting optimal health and energy levels.
From around the age of 30 as we age naturally and as we are exposed to lifestyle influences including stress, pollution and toxicity, our bodies’ natural levels of Ubiquinol decline, as does our ability to convert CoQ10 to Ubiquinol. This affects our mitochondrial function responsible for energy production in the cells of our bodies and may affect our energy levels, cardiovascular health and male fertility.
Ubiquinol has been known for a long-time as a nutrient in our body involved in cellular energy production. However, it has been challenging to manufacture Ubiquinol as an ingredient on an industrial scale because it is easily oxidised outside of the body.
After more than ten years of dedicated research, development and testing, Kaneka Corporation, a Japan-based company, managed to devise a patented technique to preserve Ubiquinol outside of the body. In 2007 they became the only supplier of the world’s first stable and bio-identical Ubiquinol – Kaneka Ubiquinol™ – and remain the only supplemental Ubiquinol ingredient available today.
Kaneka is renowned for its unique and patented production processes and places great emphasis on the development of natural and scientifically-backed ingredients. It is one of the most trusted companies in the nutritional ingredient industry. Kaneka’s ongoing commitment to quality, safety and reliability is evident in all their products.
Japan’s Kaneka Corporation is the sole global supplier of world-class scientifically formulated Kaneka Ubiquinol™, supported by 100+ scientific studies, 80+ patents and 45+ years of research for mitochondrial health, cardiovascular health, fertility and energy production.
Now listed in over 50 countries in 500 practitioner and OTC nutraceutical brands, since 2022. Kaneka Ubiquinol™ is the recipient of the Annual Ingredient Cardiovascular Health Award 2024 by Functional Foods for Wellness Summit (FFWS) and is Champion Ingredient for Alibaba 2023-2024, as well as being a finalist in the Healthy Ageing category of the NutraIngredients–Asia Awards for 2024.
