Jarrow Formulas Ubiquinol QH-Absorb 100mg
by Jarrow Formulas
"The active form of CoQ10 — no conversion needed, enhanced absorption"
Overview
Jarrow Formulas Ubiquinol QH-Absorb provides 100mg of ubiquinol (the reduced, active form of Coenzyme Q10) per softgel using Kaneka QH, the world's most studied ubiquinol ingredient. Unlike ubiquinone (standard CoQ10), ubiquinol doesn't require conversion by the body and is directly bioavailable. This is particularly important for adults over 40, whose ability to convert ubiquinone to ubiquinol declines with age.

Our Verdict
Jarrow Formulas Ubiquinol is the upgrade from standard CoQ10 for anyone over 40. The Kaneka QH ubiquinol is directly bioavailable without the conversion step that becomes less efficient with age. The 100mg dose of ubiquinol is roughly equivalent to 200-300mg of standard ubiquinone in terms of blood levels achieved.
