Healthy Ageing
Ubiquinol Helps with Healthy Ageing
Ubiquinol supports healthy ageing by boosting cellular energy production, protecting against oxidative damage, and aiding cardiovascular, cognitive, and muscle function. It helps maintain energy levels, reduce age-related fatigue, and preserve overall vitality. Highly absorbable, Ubiquinol is essential for supporting key bodily functions as we age.
Supports Mitochondrial Function
Kaneka Ubiquinol™ is a critical component in mitochondrial energy production, helping to maintain cellular energy levels as we age. This support is vital for the optimal functioning of energy-demanding organs like the heart, brain and muscles.1-6
Powerful Antioxidant Protection
As a potent lipid-soluble antioxidant, Kaneka Ubiquinol™ helps protect cells from oxidative damage that increases with age. By reducing oxidative stress, it helps decrease free radical damage to body cells, promoting overall health during the ageing process.7-9
Supports Cardiovascular Health
Ageing is often associated with a decline in heart health. Kaneka Ubiquinol™ helps maintain a healthy cardiovascular system by supporting energy production in heart cells and protecting against oxidative damage, as well as maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and helping reduce the oxidation of LDL cholesterol.9-18
Supports Cognitive Health
Ubiquinol plays a key role in maintaining brain health by supporting mitochondrial function and protecting against oxidative damage. Kaneka Ubiquinol™ supports cognitive function and maintains mental function as we age.19-20
Helps Maintain Muscle Function
Kaneka Ubiquinol™ supports healthy muscle function by fuelling the mitochondria in muscle cells, helping to maintain physical strength, stamina and endurance in older adults.21-23
Assists Age-Related Fatigue
With its role in energy production, Kaneka Ubiquinol™ helps combat age-related fatigue, supporting sustained energy levels and reducing feelings of tiredness and weakness.2-4
Enhanced Bioavailability
As we begin to age, and are exposed to higher levels of oxidative stress, the body’s endogenous production of Ubiquinol begins to wane and our levels of Ubiquinol start to decline, impacting the energy production in the cells of our body and affecting mitochondrial health that may be linked to various age-related health conditions.25-26 Kaneka Ubiquinol™ is highly absorbable and an effective supplement for older adults.
Clinically Researched and Proven
Backed by over 100 clinical studies, Kaneka Ubiquinol™ is a scientifically validated supplement that supports healthy ageing by promoting energy production, reducing oxidative stress, and maintaining overall health and vitality.
