What is the suggested use of the product?
Adults, as a dietary supplement, take one (1) capsule daily with a meal.
If you are new to taking Ubiquinol, we recommend a “loading dose” – double the recommended dose twice a day morning and afternoon – for the first two to three weeks. This will help you achieve rapid, optimal ubiquinol levels in your blood, tissues and organs. For best absorption and utilization, take lipid-soluble ubiquinol with food.*
After the first two to three weeks, take the suggested dosage of one (1) capsule daily with a meal.

How much Ubiquinol is best to support my optimal health?
-
Will I feel differently when I take Ubiquinol? How will I know it is working?
Ubiquinol isn’t a stimulant like caffeine, so most people won’t feel any differently, especially at first. However, with continued use, you may notice a gradual boost in your energy as levels of ubiquinol build in your plasma, tissues and organs.
-
Most of the capsules appear liquid in consistency, but some look crystalized, especially when the temperature is cool. Should I be concerned?
Crystallization of the contents naturally occurs at cooler temperatures, so there is no need for concern. Once you ingest the capsule and its contents reach your stomach, the ubiquinol becomes an active, bioavailable liquid.
-
Do I need to refrigerate Ubiquinol after opening the jar?
No refrigeration is required with Ubiquinol. With an approximate two-year shelf life, our formula should be stored in a cool, dry place.
-
Does Ubiquinol contain or is it manufactured in a facility that processes any type of gluten, soy, dairy, casein, maple or nuts?
There is no gluten, soy, dairy, casein, maple or nuts in any of the components of the product. Because they are not present in the components, we don’t test the final product for the presence of any of these items. If you have an allergy to any of the above substances, you may want to consult with your health care practitioner before taking Ubiquinol.
-
Are there any known side effects of Ubiquinol?
Studies have not shown any significant side effects from taking Ubiquinol. However, if you have any medical conditions or are taking any type of medication, it’s always best to check with your health care provider before taking any new products.

Although, most of the capsules appear liquid in consistency, some look crystallized, especially when the temperature is cool. Should I be concerned?
No, you should not be concerned. Crystallization of contents occurs at cooler temperatures. Once you ingest the capsule and its contents reach your gut, the ubiquinol becomes a bioavailable, active liquid.
