Sisu Sisu - CoQ10 100mg, 120 sgels
Sisu CoQ10 - 100mg - Live a longer, healthier, more youthful life by insuring that your body receives and maintains optimal levels of this "spark plug" for all human cells. Coenzyme Q10 "ignites" the oxygen in the cell, turning it into energy. The heart, in particular requires huge reserves of this important nutrient to perform its huge workload. CoQ10 exists in ALL cells in the body, and is mandatory for their health and vitality. As an excellent supplement for athletes, and an important nutrient for arresting and reversing degenerative diseases, Coenzyme Q-10 has a place in everyone's health regime.

Why people keep reordering it
Best suited to: adults under 50 starting coq10, someone who got nothing from dry coq10 capsules, anyone holding 200 mg a day for months.
What the research supports
One softgel is 100 mg of coenzyme Q10 as ubiquinone in a rice bran oil base. One to two a day makes the bottle last two to four months.
Studies use 100 to 300 mg of CoQ10 a day.
- Fatigue (evidence: mixed, from randomized controlled trial)
- CoQ10 helps cells produce energy inside their mitochondria. Trials on everyday fatigue and exercise capacity are split, with the clearest gains in people whose CoQ10 was low to start.
- Fat oxidation (evidence: moderate, from human biomarker studies, mechanistic research)
- CoQ10 sits inside cell membranes and circulating fats, where it blocks the oxidation reaction that damages them. The effect shows up in lab markers rather than anything you'd feel.

Is it right for you
Worth it if
- adults under 50 starting CoQ10
- at that age the body reduces ubiquinone to ubiquinol without much difficulty, so the pre-reduced form is mostly paying for a step you already do well.
- someone who got nothing from dry CoQ10 capsules
- the rice bran oil and lecithin give the molecule something to dissolve into before it ever reaches the gut wall.
- anyone holding 200 mg a day for months
- at two softgels this bottle covers two months, and ubiquinone at this size is the least expensive way to hold that dose long term.
Look elsewhere if
- vegetarians and vegans
- the shell is gelatin. Look for CoQ10 in a plant based capsule, and prefer one suspended in oil over a dry powder fill.
- anyone avoiding soy
- soy lecithin is the emulsifier holding this together. An oil based CoQ10 using sunflower lecithin does the same job without it.
- adults past 65 chasing the highest blood level
- the conversion of ubiquinone into ubiquinol gets less efficient with age, so ubiquinol at 100 to 200 mg raises plasma CoQ10 further per milligram in that group.
What to expect
Nothing in the first week. Plasma CoQ10 climbs over roughly two to four weeks of daily dosing and then flattens out. A lot of people notice no day to day difference at all while their blood level is rising, and that is a normal result rather than a bad bottle.
How it compares
- Compared with ubiquinol softgels
- considerably cheaper per 100 mg, and in an adult who converts normally it ends up at a comparable plasma level. The tradeoff: it depends on that conversion step, which is exactly the thing that slows down in the people most likely to be buying CoQ10.
- Compared with a dry CoQ10 powder capsule
- the rice bran oil base lifts absorption of a molecule that essentially will not dissolve on its own. The tradeoff: an oil fill needs a gelatin shell and a soy emulsifier, so it is out for vegetarians and for anyone avoiding soy.
