Coenzyme Q-10, known also as Ubidecarenone, Ubiquinone, or simply CoQ-10 is a fat-soluble compound found throughout your body. Found in high concentrations in the heart, liver and kidneys in not surprising considering its role in energy metabolism of the mitochondria. These organs have high concentrations of mitochondria and rely heavily on CoQ-10 for functioning.

Mitochondria are organelles within cells responsible for the conversion of carbohydrates and fats into ATP (energy). CoQ-10 located in the mitochondrial membrane is essential to this conversion and is responsible for generating ATP through the electron transport chain.

By supporting CoQ-10 levels to these organs it allows them to operate at their full potential.* When CoQ-10 is in its reduced form in blood serum it serves as a potent antioxidant.

Your body absorbs CoQ-10 poorly as the body then has to emulsify it with lipids in order to absorb it through the lymphatic system. By pre-emulsifying our CoQ-10 into a liquid, we are preparing it for absorption by the lymphatic system. This can increase the bioavailability of this critical compound versus merely ingesting the ingredient alone.*

L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino acid required for the metabolism and transport of fatty acids into the cell to be metabolized for energy. Fatty acid oxidation or beta-oxidation is the breakdown of fatty acids for energy. The transportation of long chain fatty acids is the rate limiting step in their oxidation, which occurs in the mitochondria. L-carnitine works by transporting the fatty acids across the mitochondrial membrane so they can be used broken down and used for energy.
