That’s a wrap on another successful Functional Foods for Wellness Industry Awards and Summit (FFWS) 2025 that brought together innovators, experts, and advocates – all with a common goal – advancing wellbeing through functional foods and ingredients.
Kaneka Ubiquinol™ had the privilege of participating in this leading event which showcased the latest and greatest in the wellness industry.
We’re excited to share some key highlights from our time at FFWS 2025, including invaluable insights into healthy ageing and the impactful role of Ubiquinol in improving health outcomes for older adults.

Speaker Session Highlights: Monitar Tan on Ubiquinol and the Science of Healthy Ageing

Kaneka Ubiquinol™ was honoured to sponsor a speaker session featuring Monitar Tan, a Health Educator, Public Health Advocate, and Naturopath with over 16 years of experience in the industry. Monitar’s standout session at the summit drew a diverse audience of healthcare professionals, brand owners and wellness advocates.
In this presentation, Monitar explored the vast scientific studies that have examined Kaneka Ubiquinol’s role in healthy ageing from many angles. Highlighting research published in top journals, including the American Journal of Cardiology Drugs and Heart, Lung & Circulation, Monitar discussed how Kaneka Ubiquinol™ directly addresses common age-related health concerns.

Here are some of the key takeaways from Monitar’s session:

• Cardiovascular health: Studies underscore the use of Kaneka Ubiquinol™ in supporting endothelial function, healthy LDL cholesterol levels, and overall heart health.
• Cognitive health: Monitar discussed the research that shows how Kaneka Ubiquinol™ improves memory and mental clarity.
• Mitochondrial function: Monitar gave a thorough overview of Ubiquinol’s importance in cellular energy production and mitochondrial health.
• Menopausal wellness: By reducing oxidative stress, Kaneka Ubiquinol™ has been shown to support hormonal balance and alleviate symptoms for post-menopausal women.

One of the most insightful aspects of Monitar’s presentation was her discussion of Ubiquinol’s role in reducing oxidative stress and inflammation – two critical factors that accelerate the ageing process. These specific mechanisms of action support multiple body systems, making Kaneka Ubiquinol™ a key ingredient in all healthy ageing protocols, addressing both prevention and symptom management.

We’re inspired by the industry’s proactive approach to health and wellness, and we’re proud to be contributing with an ingredient as versatile and impactful as Ubiquinol.
