CoQ-10 Made Uniformly More Bioavailable (Patent #7,030,102) On average, the human body absorbs only 3% percent of crystalline CoQ-10, in part because it is fat-soluble and in crystalline form. A number of strategies have been developed to overcome this problem by reducing the particle size and using surfactants to make the CoQ10 more soluble in water. While solubilized or "improved bioavailability" CoQ10 products may dramatically increase CoQ10 absorption in some people, they have little or no effect in many others. There is no way for consumers to know whether they are super-absorbers or poor absorbers of products that claim improved CoQ10 absorption. MicroActive® CoQ10, is the only form of CoQ10 shown to have uniform enhanced absorption across all subjects. Each molecule of fat-soluble CoQ10 is "bonded" to two molecules of β-cyclodextrin (a natural derivative of starch).

The conclusion based on five human studies, including one with a three-week accumulation period supports the following claims for MicroActive® CoQ10

 

3x better absorbed than regular (crystalline) CoQ10

 

2x better absorbed than solubilized ("improved bioavailability") CoQ10 soft gels

 

Doubles CoQ10 serum levels in 3 weeks among 100 percent of subjects

 

Delivers sustained release over 24 hour
