Life Extension PQQ Caps

"Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) — 20mg BioPQQ for mitochondrial biogenesis, cognitive function, and cellular energy"
Overview
Life Extension PQQ Caps provide 20mg of BioPQQ (pyrroloquinoline quinone), a novel nutrient that supports mitochondrial biogenesis — the creation of new mitochondria. PQQ is one of the few compounds shown to stimulate the growth of new mitochondria, which is significant because mitochondrial decline is a hallmark of aging. Research shows PQQ supports cognitive function, cellular energy production, and heart health. Life Extension was among the first supplement companies to bring PQQ to market.
