This question if for the manufacturer. What is the source of the CoQ10 in this product?

The CoQ10 is Kaneka Ubiquinol which is manufactured by Kaneka in the USA and Japan from yeast.

I do not think the manufacturer usually checks the Amazon pages since their products are also sold direct to the public from their own web site. I suggest you phone Nutrigold at 1-800-476-3542 and ask them. They are very friendly and extremely helpful. I have contacted them a few times by email with questions and concerns and have been very impressed with their response time and their sincerity about serving their customers.

From the label, the Kirkland product contains 300 mg. of "ubidecarenone"... Ubiquinone and Ubidecarenone are the same thing and commercially referred to as Coenzyme Q10 or CoQ10. As I understand it, CoQ10 can come in two forms - ubiquinone and ubiquinol. Ubiquinone, the form in the Kirkland product, is the completely oxidized form of CoQ10, and is the more common form sold commercially. Upon ingestion, Kirkland's Ubiquinone is metabolized to Ubiquinol. Ubiquinol is the ultimate biological objective and the strong, antioxidant form of the aforementioned CoQ10.

It depends on your age. I have read several articles about ubiquinol vs. ubiquinone. Over the age of 40, ubiquinol is recommended. Apparently, the aging body has trouble with metabolizing ubiquinone to its active form so less is absorbed. I doubt this product is equivalent, most CoQ10 supplements that ARE ubiquinol will state this on the package or in the product description.

Ubiquinol is the bioactive form of CoQ10. They are used interchangeably in supplementation.

They purchase it from the Kaneka corporation, which is the sole vender for this compound. Kaneka claims to use a yeast fermentation process to produce their CoQ10; I don't know the precise details of what they need to do to keep the Ubiquinol form stable; you would probably need to review the patent literature to get this information.

I assume ubiquinone since the Now company makes one that specifically says NOW Ubiquinol CoQH-CF. I use Co Q-10 to abate side effects of statin drugs for heart disease. Have had no side effects when taking this Now product. Many people report joint pain especially in the knees when not supplemented by co-q10.

Coenzyme Q10, often abbreviated CoQ10, is found in all the cells of your body. It occurs in two forms: Ubiquinone and unbiquinol. Supplements labeled as CoQ10 are the ubiquinone form. Ubiquinone helps the body create energy, while ubiquinol acts as an antioxidant that helps protect cells from the damage of free radicals. Ubiquinol vs. CoQ10 According to "The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine," ubiquinol is easier to absorb than CoQ10. Suzy Cohen, RPh, author of "Diabetes Without Drugs: The 5-Step Program to Control Blood Sugar Naturally," recommends ubiquinol if you are over 30, or have heart disease or acid reflux, but CoQ10 is acceptable if you are in good health. "TotalHealth Magazine" concurs ubiquinol is more bioavailable, but disagrees it is better, since both forms of CoQ10 can convert to the other whenever your body requires. CoQ10 is an acceptable, affordable alternative to ubiquinol for most people. Hopefully, this will answer your question. Al

Not sure. But, I know only very few companies use BioIdentical CoEnzyme Q10 that's been actually used in Humans at NIH and FDA. Check out Nature Made and Quinol brands of CoEnzyme Q10. I personally use a product called Healthy Circulation Support by PVK research that uses BioIdentical CoEnzyme Q10 thats used at NIH. It provides me 100 mg of CoEnzyme Q10, 100% Vitamins A,B,C,D,E,K,Ca etc..per dose for the same price and its been very good on my body.

I will post pictures of the label...which is very complete. Very satisfied with this source. My B12 levels now above 1,000 pg/ml, up from less than 200.

I do NOT recommend Kirkland vitamins or supplements that contain "Soy Oil". Look for Ubiquinol which the experts say is better than COQ10.

I don't see anything about the source. KanekaQ10 is listed a few times. It says it's USP Grade if that means anything.

Sorry, it appears you wanted to ask the manufacturer. Unfortunately, your question got to me - a consumer. I don't know.

As far as I can tell Mega contains 100 mg ubiquinol/softgel and Ultra contains 100mg uniquinone plus 150u vitamin E/softgel. The company says ubiquinol is the active form of CoQ10 and is fat & water soluble. Ultra is reported to be 300 times more soluble than regular CoQ10 (maybe due to the vit E?)I've taken the Ultra for about a year and notice significant improvement in muscle pain I was getting from taking Lipitor.
