In fact, studies show that Ubiquinol is absorbed 8 times more efficiently than the standard CoQ10. That means 100 mg per day of Ubiquinol provides virtually the same high CoQ10 blood levels as 800 mg of standard CoQ10.” Is this advantageous for me, or can I count on divine augmentation to amplify the ubiquinone I currently take to be adequate for my benefit?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Healing Modalities111 views0 answers0 votesCan you help us understand the merits and any liabilities of using AstaVida, a supplement marketed by Solaire Nutraceuticals, which combines ubiquinone (also called CoQ10), selenium, astaxanthin, and alpha lipoic acid?

Are these claims valid and significant, and are there any unstated benefits?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Healing Modalities395 views0 answers0 votes
