Could this ubiquinol be used to make liposomal coQ10? I'm not sure if it will oxidize once the gel cap is punctured?

I'm not sure the size of the Jarrow brand Ubiquinol. However, I think the "Now" brand is large as well. Hope this helps.

Unless the oil itself had undergone microencapsulation (to give it a powder-like consistency), I can't imagine they would be, as most oils are encapsulated in with something which is a mixture of cellulose, gum arabic, and gelatin, making them different from 'regular' gelatin capsules. That said, I'd contact the manufacturer, as they may say differently. Otherwise, I'd not recommend these be used for that purpose.

If it's Ubiquinone, which I suspect it is, it's not water soluble. See my review.

I can tell you that Empirical labs claims to have the best product, and they offer some proof. Many of them offer it at about about the same price as them, but some are a good bit cheaper. Although I think you will get results from the less expensive ones, if you want the best, it may be the Empirical Lab's offering. I think that they were the first to offer the liposomal form of glutathione. I hope this helps. You can go to their website and look at their info, which you can probably can do from the link where you buy their product.

Good question! We are not vegans so that is a question I didn't worry about whether their Ubiquinol is sourced from animals or veggies, but if it is a concern for you I suggest you phone the manufacturer and ask. They are extremely helpful. You could also send them an email - they normally answer their emails within one day. Either way, I think they will be happy to answer your question. Then perhaps you would be kind enough to post the information in the product review section so others will have it also.

No it is not the same as ubiquinol Ubiquinol is considered the biologically reduced form of CoQ10 - the other term for CoQ10 being ubiquinone. So, theoretically, the body uses ubiquinol more efficiently. Probably also needs a little less. The other difference, and it is a big one, is the price. Ubiquinol easily costs twice as much as CoQ10.

If it is magnesium oxide, it really is not the best for bio-availability. That would be magnesium taurate, which you can find here at Amazon under the Cardiovascular Research Lab label. A bit more pricey (of course!) but really the best. For my purposes, which involves severe muscle burning/cramping, I can feel it working within 30 mins. or so. My naturopath had recommended the PURE magnesium (which uses mag. citrate...probably the next best type) but explained to me how the taurate was actually the best. Or so goes my two cents worth! :^) Cheers!

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.

I wish I could be more of a help Colleen, but I really don't know it if would be good to use NOT in a container (pit, pot, can) of some sort. Seems like it could be hazardous because the gel is pretty liquid and might spread fast.

Yes, this is what I use mine for as it is a powerful unit. Use 2 half hour cycles (no heat) after blending your ingredients for best results (don't follow those 8 minute recommendations, it's retarded and not as effective). Several people in the Facebook group "Liposomal vitamin C" use and recommend this specific unit. Just be sure to clean the reservoir and rubber seal around it thoroughly after use and do not use the unit to clean stuff with and contaminate it. Hope this helps!

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.

Not in the jar packaging either.I used for scarring after surgery and it worked for that. But just brought to my attention the harmful effects propylene glycol which is in this product. I would opt for vitamin E in capsule form and mix with argan, coconut or olive oil to keep it all pure.

This is not ubiquinol....it's two different products. Feel free to check out the details on nutrigold.com

I'm not sure. I use shellac, which I have heard is the same as the gels. Cures the shellac good and hard.
