Austinite drops CoQ10 and picks up UBQH instead - Find out why!

You mentioned that one should only purchase UBQH from Integrative Therapeutics. If UBQH is just ubiquinol which is a reduced and more bioavailable form of CoQ10, why shouldn't one purchase ubiquinol from other trustworthy companies, e.g. NOW Foods? Why is it too difficult for other companies to manufacture ubiqunol?

Great and very informative post by the way.

It's not stable outside the body. No one has managed to stabilize it but IT.

So the ubiquinol one would purchase from other companies is unstable? Does this mean the compound will not be absorbed? You are one of the most vocal supporters of NOW Foods, so does this mean this is one compound you shouldn't trust NOW Foods with?

No. It means it converts back to CoQ10 in the presence of oxygen. The patented version prevents it from oxidizing. It stays stable and is delivered as potent as it should be and studies show serum level difference. Now... it's possible that someone may have copied the patented formula, however, for me.. I'll trust the originators.
