- This was an interesting question from our Instagram Stories Q&A. MitoQ is marketed as being up to 1000x more effective at getting into the mitochondria than CoQ10. Let's dig into this and see if we can figure out where this number comes from and how it stacks up to CoQ10 and Ubiquinol.

Gonna keep taking UBIQUNOL good video and saving money!
Thanks for taking the time to thoroughly research and share your findings. I too was debating on whether to continue supplementing with Mito Q. I have used the recommended dosage for Mito Q for 3 months and 1.5x the dosage for a further 3 months. Similarly, I used the high quality supplement by Pharma Nord, Bio-Quinone Active Q10 Gold, 200mg for the same duration and found no difference in terms of overall energy levels. I am aged 65 yrs and participate in long distance running and wanted additional support during my marathon training.
My pleasure! Thank you for sharing your feedback, it's great to hear directly from someone hwo has taken it. I'd be very curious to see how you would feel after a few months on a liposomal NMN like the one from Alive by Science! (I have no affiliation with the company, I just think they're doing some cool things.)
Did you try the active form Ubiquinol. 200 mgs/day, expensive though
Interesting video. Here’s what I can say about my own experience. MitoQ seems far more effective at supporting cardiovascular health than COQ10. It has literally stopped chest pains for me. The only thing that compares is liposomal coq10.
Hey Bradley, thank you for sharing! I’m really glad to hear that it helped you so much! Out of curiosity, did you ever take Ubiquinol? Or just normal CoQ10?
Did you take the Mitoq heart health by the company?
Thank you. Great work!
Thank you for your kind words! Hope you're having a good week!
Thank you for such deep insights!
My pleasure! Thanks for the support, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Very good research!!
Thanks David, I appreciate you taking the time to say that! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thanks for all your research
My pleasure! I'm glad you found it helpful! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
Thanks, this answered my questions I appreciate your research.
Glad I could help!!
Wow! You are amazing at your research here. Keep sharing great content like this regarding various health issues. Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks so much Charlene! I'm really glad you found it helpful!
Good post thanks
Thank you, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much!!!! You are so smart and I’m grateful to God for you. I will stick to my Ubiquinol 😊 God bless you for your diligence because you help us so much!!!!! Much love ❤️
Thank you so much for your kind words and positive energy! I really appreciate it!
thanks very much for your work, mate! I've been curious and sceptical about mitoq since they appeared but never tried. now I'm definitely gonna stick to ubiquinol. charging so much for their supplements they must be way more transparent. keep up the good work!
Thanks for your support, I'm glad you found the video helpful in your research! Ubiquinol is awesome, its something I take almost every day 😊 Glad you're enjoying it too!
Thank you!!!
Thank you for your research this really helps me on my decision.
My pleasure! I'm glad to hear this helped! Hope your week is off to a good start!
Nice work. Ill cancel my Amazon order and run out and get some ubiqunol.
Wonderful video!!!!!! 👌👌👌👌👌👌
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I subscribed after watching this video! ❤
So glad to have you with us!
I tested MitoQ first in 2019 before i had lomg covid and was in good health, i felt bit anxious nervous like when i have coffee.. with CoQ10 Ubiquinol i never had that even high dosage 600mg . So it is possible its a much stronger formulation
I went to their website and tried to find the ingredients and I got nothing! I thought it was a fraud. Well, I think your video just proved it! Haha. Glad I didn't spend my money on it.
haha! funny that it's easier to find this video than to find the supplement facts on their website! 😄 In case you're still interested in seeing the ingredients, the active ingredient is 10mg of MitoQ (mitoquinol mesylate) and then the inactive ingredients are Tapioca starch, Microcrystalline cellulose, Hypromellose, Silica - colloidal anhydrous, Purified water.
I hadn't looked at their site in a while- it seems they've revamped it and moved away from some of those claims that I found so peculiar... at least that's something positive!
Thank you
You're welcome!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your generosity! Please send us an email with your mailing address to info@addictivewellness.com - I would love to send you some of our chocolates 😊🙏🏼
@@addictivewellness then this won't be called a gift
@@npc-drew Well whatever the longevity benefits are of being kind and generous, you're getting them! 😄🙌🏼 I really appreciate your support. Also, I think you may be onto something only reading the abstracts haha... you could do all this work to extend your lifespan a bit or you could just spend time enjoying your life instead of slowing reading through these long documents! haha Both ways are cool, I think everyone finds the perfect balance for themselves.
Thanks for this so much. I've taken ubiquinol along with pqq for mitochondrial biogenesis in the past and it helped (some) with CFS and fibromyalgia. Recently have been looking for something stronger. This helped me make a good decision!👍🏽 Thx!
Thanks for taking the time to leave such a kind comment! I'm really glad this was helpful for you! Wishing you all the best with the CFS and fibromyalgia!
What have you been taking that’s stronger?
@@petejames9366 haven't found any supplements that are stronger just yet. starting with red/near infared light therapy (which is helping) and going to see what results I can get with earthing sheets as soon as I get them.
Have you tried thiamine Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide for your cfs? I had 3-4 months of 90% recovery but it depleted another nutrient so it actually makes me feel a bit off. Thankfully it got me back to a place where I can work and be reasonably active. Look up ELLIOT OVERTON on TH-cam for more info
@@sheritaa3032NAD precursors helped CFS more than anything for me
Thank you for this research and review - exactly what I was looking for!
What do you think of Do Not Age products? From Dr. David Sinclair, very expensive, yet none are liposomal, so I'm concerned that I'm wasting my money.
My understanding is also that all ubiquenol products are the same quality. Ive found Kaneka, a Japanese company with location in Tx that seems to be a very high quality product.
Typo.. not all ubiquenol products are the same quality.
Wrong! ALL ubiquinol is made by Kaneka. They have the patent on it. They sell it to supplement companies to put in their products.@@wendymccleary1465
Kaneka Ubiquinol is the original with research in terms of Ubiquinol versions .
It's one thing to get into the cell, and another thing to give some benefit to cell respiration.
Es posible en español? Gracias.
I guess I am lucky being able to make urolithin A from pommegranate which I eat at breakfast with Greek (genuine) goat milk yogurt. I also take ubiquinol 100mg and PQQ before going to bed. I am a 66yom with a vo2max of 54
Wow, that VO2 Max is seriously impressive! Can you share what kind of training you do?
Great job! Can u suggest a supplement that could help my afib? I almost ordered MitoQ before I saw your video！
Anything heart related CX8 by Xtend-life life is excellent and their Ubiquinol mixed with GG which is more advanced that Ubiquinol only . I recommend NMN too for heart health and Berberine to help you control glucose better and good healthy diet better stress and sleep management
Hawthorne Berry for arrhythmia
Cardio Calm by Strauss Naturals. Call them, they will guide you
What vitamins would you recommend for Long covid - crushing fatigue / exercise intolerance improvment i could try?
I found this video, because one video i watched recommended MitoQ. I made a list what I want to start taking, but not sure if i am not missing something. I do know I have very low vitamin D (32). Just now i had a crashing fatigue again after some cold and took big dose of vitamin d and it improved my state ten times. Not sure if such symptoms can be caused by my low number, could be lower since its winter.
Rhodiola
glutathione
B vitamins (active form)
Trace minerals (magnesium, zinc)
L-carnitine
B3
Vitamin D and K2
Have you had your testosterone levels checked? There’s some research showing Covid causes low T for some men and that will absolutely ruin your energy/vigor.
Since 2020 had long COVID 2 years later recovered then reinfection and still got lingering symptoms, reinfection I think does more damage to the body . The one thing I found helped with fatigue most was NMN with TMG , however high quality brand you must research, personally Do Not Age one I used .
Omega 3 and fish oil and Longvida Tumeric form helped a lot with aching pain inflammation
What do you think of mitopqq from designs for health?
PQQ generally is pretty cool as basically a more powerful form of ubiquinol, but I need to do more research to see if the extra benefit is worth the extra cost.
wow thank you for the effort, you just saved me some cash, I am grateful, new subscriber
Thanks for the good vibes, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and grateful to have you as a subscriber! Happy New Year!
I actually have a few questions and I want your answer because I respect your research and honesty.
1. What is the ONE supplement you think everyone should have
2. What supplement or nutrient helps with aging for women
3. What is the best supplement or thing to incorporate for a healthy heart
Thank you so much for your kind words!
1. There's so many different people out there, I think no one supplement is going to work for 100% of people. But if I had to recommend 1 supplement and 1 herb to a wide audience, it would probably be Magnesium Glycinate and Astragalus.
2. It depends what stage of life... in your 20s as you said in your other comment, I would say blue butterfly flower or tremella mushroom.
3. Ubiquinol will of course be very good for heart health, but I would also focus on blood sugar management as I mentioned in the other comment.
@@addictivewellness thank you so so much
Hi, what in your opinion is the best supplement for healthy arteries? I am in my 20s but worried about my heart health and have already developed a blood clot. Its so hard to find a single supplemt that I can easily incorporate to diet changes. I know diet/lifestyle is everything but I would feel better having a supplement I can take that will be more therapeutcic.
If it was me, I would focus on healthy blood sugar balance to avoid arterial issues. So for that, I'd say berberine would be my #1. But it's tough to just say that, because there's so much that can be done from a diet and lifestyle perspective. And for clot prevention, I would think about systemic enzymes like serrapeptase.
I would go for VasqFlow if you want natural blood flow and blood pressure control and CX8 for general cardio health along with Berberine for better blood glucose levels control. Healthy diet, better sleep and stress control and along with moderate exercise
Which form of ubiquinol do u suggest ? Vesisorb technology really works ?? It’s more expensive than other brands
Hi! Vesisorb sounds cool, but I haven't been able to find the actual research to back up the "622% improved bioavailability" I take the Ubiquinol from Jarrow.
@@addictivewellnessIt's just Ubiquinol in a better delivery system due to capsule coating I understand
What do you recommend to keep my mind sharp and focused? ( Adderall alternative)
Lion's Mane, Ashwagandha and Rhodiola 😊🙌🏼 Check out our website for the first two and for Rhodiola I'd say try Gaia Herbs capsules or Tibetan Magic from Dragon Herbs
*Cordyceps 10:1 1,000mg
*acetyl carnitine 500mg
*ubiquinone 100mg
*NADH 5mg
What company would you recommend to buy Ubiquinol from in the US?
I currently use the Ubiquinol from Jarrow 👍🏼
@@addictivewellness Thanks. Kinda interesting that all Ubiquinol products I found have the same type of Ubiquinol, from Kaneka.
Kaneka recommends certain products with their ubiquenol. Jarrow is one of those.
Sounds like MitoQ is using scientific doublespeak for their documentation.
What about PQQ?
What do you think about combining ubiquinol 100 MG and 500 mg of GPLC?
They're both cool supplements, but I wouldn't anticipate any special synergistic effects from this combination, especially at these somewhat low doses, but maybe you know something I don't!
This dude talks like William shatner on family guy
AND…
And
say more
Does mitoq damage kidneys? I heard it damaged kidneys in mice. Can someone tell me if it has same effects on humans?
There was a 2018 in vitro (Petri dish) study that found "that MitoQ can cause significant mitochondrial toxicity in kidney tissue" but this was done by injecting extremely high levels right into kidney tissue. A 2022 study that looked at adult human kidney after one dose, found no problems. Longer studies not focused on kidney health haven't reported any kidney issues to my knowledge. But still it would be good to see a mid-long term study on human kidney health.
aaand....aaaand...aaand...😂
1. What do you think about Nicotinamide Mononucleotide, Resveratrol, Metformin, and Rapamycin?
2. With there being so many anti-aging products. As much as possible, how do we reduce redundancy?
Great topics for future videos! In brief, I definitely look forward to seeing more research on all of these, but based on what we know now, I'm a big fan of NMN and have seen some pretty amazing results in people using this in liposomal form in combination with resveratrol. (Such as my partner being able to get off of bioidentical hormones because she started making enough of her own again.) The potential synergistic effects of NMN and resveratrol are very exciting. I'm more hesitant with metformin due to some concerns with it's interference with B12 absorption and blocking of hormetic benefits of exercise and I think a lot of the benefits could be more naturally obtained via berberine. I am admittedly undereducated of rapamycin, but I am concerned about liver and kidney toxicity and immune suppression... I would want to see more substantiation and safety data before trying this myself.
To your second question, I would say first make sure you're doing all the basic practices for healthy living first (clean eating, quality sleep, exercise, etc.) then try to understand a bit about the methods of action of each of the supplements you're considering... i.e. are they working on mitochondria, perhaps acting on certain genes, etc. and just avoid possibly taking 2 different supplements that already have very similar methods of action. (Unless of course some research shows them to be synergistic in some way, then maybe stack them after all!) 😄

In my experience with nootropics, before elevating the mind, one must have the body ready for it, that is good sleep, exercising often, and eating well. Now I'm new to anti-aging supplements, but I would assume to get the best out of it, those 3 things I mentioned earlier are also needed.
Another thing I learned from nootropics is to take breaks for the body to heal and clean any toxins from the nootropics, I wonder if that's good practice for all other supplements.
A nootropics expert recommended to me "N-Acetyl L-Cysteine" to protect the liver from nootropics, I wonder if you have something of the kind for all the things you take (this should also be a great topic for a video).
Passed down in my family is aloe vera, this has healed my body from things doctors have said I would have for the rest of my life. I get the crystal part of an entire plant, and mix it with orange juice to negate the bad taste. I take these for 3 days, and phenomenal healing takes place.
I would see how I can get NMN and resveratrol. Any recommendation on where to buy them?
One final note, I would love to see a video of your journey into how you reached to the supplements you're taking today. In my opinion, if you can also rank them in terms of effectivity and whether the benefits are something that working out alone won't do.
PS: I expect great things from you. Blessing to you and the lady. Pura Vida!
@@addictivewellness I put this as a separate comment since I'm not sure if it violates your channel's terms, Dr. David Sinclair from Harvard has a YT channel with info on anti-aging tech. He has pretty much 1 hour content videos. It would be super cool if you could watch them and compress it into 10-20 mins.
@@npc-drew Very cool that you're so deep into the aloe- it's a magical plant indeed! I like to blend the contents of a large leaf with fermented coconut water, lemon, stevia, turmeric and schizandra.
N-Acetyl Cysteine is great as a glutathione precursor, but harder to obtain these days since the FDA is trying to make it accessible by prescription only. You can also cut to the chase and take liposomal glutathione.
For NMN, check out the Lipo Gel from Renue By Science. The formulation isn't quite as pure as I'd love it to be in the ideal world, but the benefits of the NMN you're getting should drastically outweigh any small negatives from the other ingredients. They put a little resveratrol in there too, but just a small dose. They do sell pure 99% pure resveratrol powder at a reasonably affordable price. Bulk Supplements has it less expensive but 98% pure. I haven't used either of these for resveratrol though, so I can't speak from experience.
Here's the most recent video on my daily supplements and herbs from August 2021: th-cam.com/video/wuWm_LBwc0M/w-d-xo.html
A few things have changed since then, like not taking the Pendulum probiotics anymore, but most is still the same.
Thank you so much for the video ideas, these are super helpful! I'm always trying to come up with new video concepts, so I always appreciate suggestions!
Thanks for all the good vibes! Pura Vida! (I spent a lot of time in Costa Rica from age 14-20, so those words mean a lot to me!) 😄🙏🏼
@@npc-drew Oh yeah, Dr. Sinclair is great! Such a wealth of knowledge. I think I can cut his 1 hr talks down to 10 minutes if I just remove all the disclaimers about not giving health advice, needing to see further research and not being people's personal doctor! 😅 haha! But of course I totally respect and understand why he needs to put all those in there, especially in the position that he's in. In all seriousness, this is a great idea for me to look into doing, thank you!
And..... And...... And.....
Thank you for the feedback, my mom gives me a hard time about that too.
@@addictivewellnesslisten to your mother, she's right.
@@KingSkullie thank you.

Don't waste your money on Ubiquinol. Its oxidized to the cheaper Ubiquinone before being absorbed. Plenty of research out there.
Hi Terry! In the case of young and healthy people, I agree with you! But one’s conversion ability can vary depending on age, health and genetics. So I'd say the older and less healthy one is, the more likely he or she is to be better off taking Ubiquinol. But even if we don't have the same exact view on this, I'm sure we'd agree on 99.9% of things! 🙌🏼
Sounds like MitoQ is a 1000 x's better than nothing.
The older you are the less ability you have to convert ubiquinone to ubiquinol.
Correct! 👍🏼
All the ubiqunnol supplements also have seed oi in them. MitoQ doesn't. I take MitoQ for that reason
Definitely not all of them, but hope you're getting good results with the MitoQ!
Not true! Jarrows and Dr's best don't. You don't know what you're talking about.

Hi there and thank you so much for this great video. I currently look after my mum. 24/7 she cant walk or talk as She had a large stroke about seven years ago. she has Atrial fibrillation and heart failer - And I was looking into Mitoq. And after watching this. And from my own gut i Don't think I should go with it. Instead, I have ordered. Ubiquinol 100mg 120 Softgel . I have also ordered liposomal Q10 liquid. . I'm wondering. What dosage to give of both? Because I don't want to just One capsule a day or a shot of the coenzyme Q10 liposomal if its not optimal. I bought both. And i am thinking of Toggling the two. Again, my question is what's the dosage of ubiquinol to be effective? and what dosage of Enzyme Q10 liposomal to be effective? should i use one or the other or both or maybe toggle like i thought? thank you so much - Stasios - ps here is what i bought; www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BRYFJQBN?psc=1&smid=A3AKY68ZUN91V0&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp and www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07Z5FR6MC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
