Why Pharma Nord Bio-Ubiquinol Actve QH:
Manufactured to pharmaceutical standards.
Only ubiquinol formula with guaranteed stability.
Reference product for the International Coenzyme Q10 Association.
Patented oil-based preparation for maximum absorption.
Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring, vitamin-like substance that plays a key role in the body’s energy supply process.
Every cell within the body requires a constant supply of energy to survive and function - without this constant energy supply the cells die.
Different tissues within the body may have particular energy requirements to function optimally- a good example is muscle tissue, which has an extremely high-energy requirement during physical exertion. Without an adequate energy supply in such circumstances, individuals may feel tired and lacking motivation to undertake physical exercise. This can even affect how we feel when carrying out daily tasks.
Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is required to convert sugars and fats from food into energy, in the form of a specific molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This process takes place in specialized structures within cells called mitochondria.
Some coenzyme Q10 is manufactured within the body, with the remainder being obtained from the diet. As individuals age, the body is less able to maintain optimal levels of coenzyme Q10. In addition, coenzyme Q10 levels are depleted by lifestyle factors such as alcohol consumption and smoking, as well as by physical exertion or by illness.
Dietary supplementation can help to maintain optimal levels of coenzyme Q10 within the body.
Coenzyme Q10 occurs in two forms;
Ubiquinone (oxidised form).
Q10 Ubiquinone is also known as Pharma Nord’s Bio-Quinone Q10. Most people are able to absorb supplemental Q10 in this form adequately.
Ubiquinol (reduced form).
Q10 Ubiquinol is also known as BioActive Q10. Certain categories of people may be less able to absorb the ubiquinone form. These include the elderly, as well as people with liver disease, pancreatic disease, digestive disorders such as IBS, and following digestive tract surgery. For such categories of people, Q10 is more easily absorbed in the reduced (ubiquinol) form, as BioActive Q10.
Ubiquinol is extremely sensitive to the effects of air and light. Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH contains ubiquinol Q10 in a stabilised form, using specially developed lightproof and air-proof packaging to prevent oxidation via a unique patented process. The manufacturing process ensures complete dissolution of the Q10 crystals in an oil blend that is encapsulated in light-proof gelatine caps and blister-packed.
Pharma Nord is able to guarantee the stability of this product during the whole of the product shelf life.
Inferior brands of Q10 sold in tablet form and in jars cannot guarantee the bio-availability of the active ingredients within.
Pharma Nord recommends 1-3 capsules per day of Q10 ubiquinol supplements, or as directed by a physician. Preferably taken in split doses and best taken with food to enhance absorption.
Coenzyme Q10 has been subject to over 1000 clinical studies, with no contraindications reported. There are over 70 studies featuring Bio-Quinone Q10, which is a reference product for the International Q10 Association.
Pregnant or lactating women and those on medication should consult a doctor before using any product.
Safety
Pharma Nord manufacture all of their products to pharmaceutical standards and adhere to Good Manufacturing Practice. This is a guarantee of safety and efficacy.
The safety of ubiquinol has been demonstrated in a clinical study reported by Hosoe et al (2007): Study on the safety and bio-availability of ubiquinol after single and 4-week multiple oral administration to healthy volunteers. Regul Toxicol Pharmacol; 47(1): 19-28.

I decided to start taking CoQ10 largely because I was on so much medication for my diabetes and blood pressure. I was concerned that my age and the medication were both interfering with my body's ability to generate CoQ10, so I decided to be proactive about it and went on 300 mg/day of Ubiquinol. I no longer feel as tired. I have a lot more energy. My mouth feels better, with no gum disease. I am sure that the CoQ10 has helped lower my blood pressure to some extent and my leg cramps have improved too. I feel that my natural immunity has been boosted and that will be due to the ongoing antioxidant action of the CoQ10. My cholesterol is well controlled with not a statin in sight. I feel a lot happier about my heart in respect of a reduced likelihood of cardiac events resulting from diabetes.
Joan Freeman | 17/08/2015
Q10 for me has been like a miracle. I was born with a hole in my heart. I went from being told there was nothing that could be done for me as I was too complicated to where I am now. As a nine year old child my parents were told that I would be in a wheelchair by the time I was 12 years of age and would most likely not reach 21 without heart surgery which in 1955 was in its infancy. I believe I was the second in the UK to have an open heart operation. Here I am 70 years of age. I was told as a young married woman I must not entertain having children, I have three and my second pregnancy was twins. I suffered from breathlessness and tiredness but since taking Pharma Nord's Q10 this has improved. All I can say is I thank The LORD for the day I spoke to whoever it was I spoke to on the telephone from Pharma Nord in 2009.
Rosemary Laidlaw | 17/04/2014
Multivits has an excellent choice of vitamins and minerals. I swear by Pharma Nord's Ubiquinol version of Co Enzyme Q10. It is the most expensive of the Q10 range but there is a school of thought that as we age we need a product with the best absorbency. I prefer to believe this to be true hence I continue to purchase the product and was so relieved it was on a recent offer. My husband used to be on Statins which I used to give him Q10 to put back the enzyme that product took out. Finally after years of many battles with the medical profession, doctor's are finally seeing the true light re that medication.
Mr A M Spear | 18/11/2013
This will be my second month of taking COQ10, and the amount of benefit has been unsurpassable. Taking C0Q10 has really given me an added boost to my health and well being.
Beatrice Martin | 08/10/2013
I have started to take co q10 for a month and i am beginning to feel better not so anxious. I knew nothing about co q10 until my son went to the opticians and was told co q10 is good for eyesight.
Jason Eastham | 16/08/2013
Taken for 1 month. Felt improvements in energy on some days but may be because of being only 30mg!
Elaine Green | 29/05/2013
I've been taking Q10 Ubiquinol for 6 months or more and I felt I had a spring in my step from the moment I started using this product; I feel I have more energy and the fact that it protects my heart is a definite bonus. Its amazing and I'd recommend it to anyone.
Lian Renaud | 24/05/2013
I suffered from muscle and back pain for many years. I was then prescribed statins, which caused muscle paralysis and muscle waste. Doctors advice was continue with the statins, thinking perhaps the doctor knew best I took one more tablet, I was horrendously ill and then had months of pain. My friend is a Treger practitioner recommended CO Q 10 Ubiquinol, I didn't fully believe the claims but I trusted my friend. Four and a half days later a lot of the pain lifted, and I slept through the nights. Another friend had serious back pain and took CO Q 10 Ubiquinol, she is over the moon as four and a half days later most pain has gone. I was dubious as I saw many claims for wonder remedies,but I feel extremely lucky that I now have a future without the terrible pain I experienced for some three years or more. I am grateful to Treger and Pharma Nord. Pain curtails any enjoyment of life..........but now I have a lot of restored energy and hope......that's the best and least expected benefit ever. I recommend Both Treger and Pharma Nord CO Q 10 unreservedly.
Patricia Gooch | 26/04/2013
This is certainly the most superior product to be found on the market. The delivery was prompt and well presented. I always order my vitamins from Pharma Nord because it is so dependable
Raymond Finlay | 19/04/2013
Finding a noticable improvement in reduction of joint pain after being on Q10 for the last 3 months
Fergal | 19/04/2013
Ubiquinol Q10 is just fantastic. I am over fifty and find that it has quickly restored my energy levels and reduced my blood pressure that was beginning to climb a little above normal. I ran out of them recently and was without any for three days and noticed my energy levels fall right back to where they were before - I would highly recommend them - especially with the selenium to ensure continued cardiovascular health. Expensive but really well worth it in the end.
colin j lomax | 19/04/2013
i'm 66 yrs old and i've got to say q10 as certainly increased my energy levels enabling me to go the gym daily and enjoy walking
Graham | 19/04/2013
Over 50 & on statins the tiredness, aches & pains were inevitable but 2 100mg Q10 Ubiquinol per day and the energy levels are back where they should be. Pharma Nord's Bioactive Q10 is not the cheapest but in my view the best I have tried, Quality costs & my health is priceless to me.
Mairead Welby | 18/04/2013
I started taking 100mg Bio Active Q10 ubiquinol about 4 months ago i noticed after about 2 weeks my energy had improved so much. I then noticed that a vein in my leg which was causing me alot of discomfort and fluid retention was no longer painful and fluid retention was no longer a problem. I am def. going keep taking this product it is truly amazing.
Alan Garner | 18/04/2013
I have read many good reports praising BioActive Q10 Ubiquinol and can confirm that I am feeling the benefits along with reduced blood pressure results that are now more acceptable for a 74 year old.
chris | 18/04/2013
as an aging builder energy levels were declining so i tried 100mg Ubiquinol and have been pleased with the results,good for your heart too
Gary Davis | 18/04/2013
I've taken Q10 for a while now and, when I forgot to reorder, I do notice.
John S | 18/04/2013
I am 58 and do a lot of hill walking but last year suddenly found my energy just collasped. I tried several things but the only one that worked was bioActive Q10 Ubiquinol. After taking it for 3 weeks I found the energy and stamina returned to normal but it is taking a while to rebuild confidence. Will keep taking it from now on. The effect seems subtle but very powerful.
Miles | 18/04/2013
I am 54 and a few years ago a virus affected my heart muscle and I collapsed during a hospital exercise test at heart rate 130 bpm and was told by a consultant cardiologist not to exercise. I am now recovered and have been taking 100mg Q10 Ubiquinol daily for 18 months which gives me the energy to walk long distances, run competively, and play tennis. I also now row competively and the Concept 2 ergos (rowing machines), which don't lie, tell me that my energy and fitness levels compare with club members 20 years younger! I know that the extra energy comes from the daily 100mg Ubiquinol Q10, and it also lowers my blood pressure. I can't rate this product highly enough. With many supplements you can't feel the difference - with Ubiquinol Q10 you really can. I ran 4.5 miles this morning at 70% of my max heart rate and am just off to the rowing club for UT1 ergo training! I would not be without Ubiquinol Q10.
Keith Sheriff | 18/04/2013
I was recommended ubiquinol BioActive Q10 by a health professional for my heart. I can't tell if its doing anything great for my heart but I was shocked when my gums stopped bleeding (they have bled all my adult life). When I went to see my dentist they were amazed how good my gums were looking too. On top of all that I have more energy and am not as fatigued as I used to be. So all in all I say go for it and give them a try - you owe it to yourself to at least try them and see.
Doreen | 31/01/2013
I have been taking Q10 and subsequently Ubiquinol for approximately 18 months. I found that it actually appears to have stablised my blood pressure which was high even though I was taking medication. I also feel I have more energy when taking Ubiquinol as if I stop taking the tablets for a week or more I feel tired more quickly.
Thitimanun | 08/05/2012
My parents about 86 years old ,they take 2 capsules of 100 mg BioActive Q10 everyday for their hearts and energy. They look well, happy and have a good mood. I considered that they should take the capsules continually.
Linda Letford | 27/04/2012
I am absolutely thrilled with Ubiquinol. I have had chronic fatigue for several years now and it has given me back my energy to live my life, and a side effect is that my migraines have much reduced in frequency and intensity
Buzzardman | 27/04/2012
I take 2 30mg Ubiquinol per day as I understand that q10 production diminishes as we get older. I lead an active life and hope to continue for as long as possible. I cannot say that I feel any different but I treat it as insurance for my heart.
Sean | 26/04/2012
I started taking 100mg of BioActive Q10 Ubiquinol some months ago and right from the first capsule it worked for me. The best way I can describe It is, it was like a switch been turned on with the lovely feeling I got of calm and serinity. So I would not be without my Ubiquinol every day.

Brilliant!! It is available on prescription, I take the Q10 Gold and the benefits are far too many to list, I feel better, no more muscle pains from statins and my Fibromyalgia has not flared at all since I started taking over 2 years ago, again BRILLIANT
Barbara Dunworth | 11/08/2016
Lifesaver! 100 mg Q10 boosted me out of the deep doldrums of M.E. and made life worth living again. I take it all the time but if I rin out my energy drops away within a week. Q10 is my friend for life xxxxxxx
Alex Sloan | 08/01/2016
I have been taking your products for some time now. My wife and myself take Bio-Quinone Active Q10 and Bio-Garlic as I have had bypass surgery 4 years ago. I am also on statin drugs and warfarin. My local health shop told me to take these as I am taking statin drugs and they will help. I am doing well and think your products are very good and will keep taking these tablets.
Karin Haake | 08/12/2015
Taking Pharma Nord products for years, very satisfied with them. Because I have to take statins my Liver Test has been Not very good. But since I started taking Q10, Gold, the Liver function Test improved a lot.
Gillian | 31/03/2015
My husband and I took Q10 for a couple of years and he also takes Omega 7 . I decided that the budget was being stretched by the Q10 and stopped buying it. I have noticed that my energy levels are really low again and the Q10 helped me before and will do again. This a really excellent company to deal with - any issues promptly dealt with.
Michael Donnelly | 24/03/2015
I was put on "STATINS" about 5 years ago and after all these years this has made me feel tired and lacking in energy. I was advised to try BIO-QUINONE Q10 GOLD (100mg) and after 4 months I can really feel the benefit. I am now able to go for a walk each day and feel more energy. I also feel more alert every time I am driving and thank Q10 GOLD for this new me.
John | 28/07/2014
started taking Q10 after hearing a recommendation on radio, started feeling benefit within a month. You realise the benefit if you stop taking them you go back to feeling tired not wanting to do much etc. I have now been using Q10 for 5yrs. I am 65 and now attend gym 4 times a week completing full work outs feel fitter now than 10yrs ago.
Margaret | 18/07/2014
I think that this product is the best that you have on the market , both my husband and I take it. We find we have more energy and a general improvement in our overall well being,thank you once again.
Gregg Berlandi | 03/09/2013
The only health supplement I've ever taken where I've seen a noticeable difference, specifically in my energy levels in the morning and early afternoon. I wake up feeling more refreshed and I have loads more energy throughout the day - I really notice it if I miss a day's dose!
Aly Topping | 16/08/2013
I started taking this just for my general heart health but I have really noticed the difference with my energy levels increasing. I certainly feel more sluggish if I forget to take my Q10.
P. C. Whitmore | 01/05/2013
Excellent product. It was recommended by my husband's heart doctor due to his intolerance of the cholesterol statins. Ever since he consumes the Q10, he has no problem with his join and muscle pain.
Wendy Ann Shaw | 26/04/2013
I have been taking Bio-Quinone Q10 since September 2012. I have to admit I do believe my energy levels have increased. I have rheumatoid arthritis and have noticed what a difference I feel taking my Q10. Thank you
Julie Roadnight | 23/04/2013
Q10 is fantastic, I have been taking it for over 18 months and what a difference in my skin and brain function. Highly recommend this product.
Barbara Munt | 21/04/2013
my husband and I have been taking Q10 for more than 30 years. We are now 78 years of age. My husband is still running, has an allotment and swims, attends a gym 3 times a week. We are both very active living in an attractive small town in North Yorkshire which is very hilly, also live in a house which is part of a converted 28th century linen mill and has 3 floors, so have many steps. We are both promoters of Q10 and will continue to do so21st April 2013
Annie Cordner-Webster | 20/04/2013
My husband and I have taken Q10 for 22 years. I take 200mg daily and at 69plus I am active and able to carry out research work in education,spend quality time with work, home and family and enjoy walking,pilates and using our small home gym which includes an exercise bike and rowing machine!!!My husband is 77 and wouldn't go a day without Q10. I am really pleased that doctors are now slowly beginning to recognise the benfits from this marvelloues product. I never fail o share Q10 information with colleagues and friends. When I have hospital appointments I always add Q10 to any medications I happen to be taking.
Annabel Baker | 19/04/2013
I started taking Pharma Nord Bio-Quinone Gold 100mg because my immune system was not good. Also my cholesteral level was going up & i had already had a stroke. My energy levels where poor as i also have B12 deficiancy. I have been on them now for about 6mths. My immune system has really picked up, my cholesteral level has dropped & i have much more energy. I concider the decission to take this product to be one of the best i have made in my life.
Louise Coupar | 19/04/2013
I have been singing the praises of Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold 100mg so loudly that even my cynical GP (now retired) started to take them and has had eat his words. I learned about the benefits of taking Q10 when I attended a Fibromyalgia conference in Harrogate some years ago. Like millions of other Fibro sufferers I had been plagued by permanent 'flu-like' symptoms , with aching muscles and low energy levels.Within weeks of taking Super Bio-Quinone Q10 I started to get my life back on track-with raised energy levels and a greater feeling of well being.Shortly after retiring my former GP had a stroke. He was sapped of all energy and had statin related aching muscles. I persuaded him to give Q10 a whirl-after all what did he have to lose?The cynic is now a convert and takes Q10 regularly.I cannot recommend them highly enough !!
sue s | 19/04/2013
i am 68 years old , both myself and my husband have been taking Q10 for the last 18 years in all that time i have never had to have any treatment at the dentist other than a clean , my blood pressure is normal so is my cholesterol ,i get up at 4-00 am and i am very active i put it all down to taking Q10's with being on a pension i do find them expensive but manage to get the money together , its worth the expense to feel so well
Keith Bourne | 18/04/2013
Excellent
Janet Hicks | 18/04/2013
I have been taking the 100mg Q10 for several years now and believe it has made me look and feel much younger than my current 70 years of age. It is expensive, but I shall continue to take it as long as I can afford it.
Sally Waite | 18/04/2013
I often experience bleeding sore gums, and my dentist recommended I take this product. Within a short while of taking it, my gums are no longer a problem, and as an added bonus I have loads more energy and feel generally more healthy and vital. This supplement is also recommended by many naturopaths and wholistic pracitioners, it infuses cells in the body with energy and is a powerful antioxidant; I'm usually a bit of a sceptic when it comes to these things but I have seen the "proof in the pudding" for myself!!
Justin Carr | 18/04/2013
I am disabled and I enjoy taking Co-Q10 capsules as part of my fitnessish routine.....
Lynne Adams | 06/02/2013
This should be available on prescription!! I had a free trial included with some q10 face cream (that works wonders too). I decided to try it after reading the information about the benefits. After 3 weeks my worryingly high blood pressure had returned to normal. More importantly to me however, I noticed huge improvements in my health after 25 years suffering M.E. I am now working full time, swimming, horse-riding, and going ski-ing this year. Over the business of Christmas and being so well, I forgot to take it, and it was when I noticed a return of old symptoms I decided to reintroduce and my health is back on form again within 2 weeks. This product has changed my life!! I take 3 a day and all physical, mental, and emotional symptoms have dramatically improved or completely disappeared! I lead a 'normal' life for the first time in 25 years! I struggle to afford it as it is expensive, but I can't afford not to take it. Research needs to be undertaken in this respect; and if findings support my experience being repeated, it needs to be made available/affordable for all!
A Brown | 14/09/2012
I had a heart attack July 2010 and as a result I had a stent fitted and was put on the standard heart medications including Statins.I continued to train in the gym doing cardio and weights however I found that I had a lot less energy and strength. I suffered really bad pain in my shoulders and thighs, the pain was so bad that I seriously thought of stopping training as even swimming left me in pain. It felt like I had been hit very hard with a stick when I got out of bed every morning.I visited my GP who halved my statin medication with no effect I still had bad pain and felt realy down. My GP recommended that I try Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold 100mg as she had seen some research claiming that they had helped with muscle pain in other statin users.I must admit I did not think they would have much effect on me however after taking Q10 100mg twice a day I noticed a difference almost straight away, the pain went away and I had a lot more energy. I stopped taking Q10 for a couple of days as I could not believe the change and sure enough the pain returned. I was on a diving holiday with friends and one of my friends who is also on statins said he was having the same pain as myself, I gave him a weeks supply of Q10 to see if it could help him and he was amazed at the difference and now he also takes Q10 every day with the same results .Q10 has changed my opinion on supplements I used to think they were a gimmick however I could not be happier discovering Q10. These have been llife changing for me, that might sound an overeaction but in my case Q10 helped me gain back my strength, energy and pain free life which makes my life so much better. Thank you.
L Sheridan | 13/09/2012
I was conscious that my energy levels had dropped alarmingly. I couldn't understand why this was because I ate a good diet, did not drink, had never smoked and was not over-weight. I reluctantly assumed that this was the natural effect of aging and something I just had to get used to and accept as I got older. Knowing of Pharma Nord by reputation I bought a pack of Super Bio-Quinone Q10 and have been taking them ever since. I know it sounds unbelievable, but within a week of starting my first pack my energy levels rose amazingly and are now back to what they were fifteen years ago - provided I take Q10 regularly.
Nick K. | 02/05/2012
Excellent product. I'm taking the 100mg Q10 as recommended by my doctor and feel better. More tolerance in everyday activities and extra protection for my heart.

I was advised to try BIO-QUINONE Q10 GOLD (100mg) and after 4 months I can really feel the benefit. I am now able to go for a walk each day and feel more energy. I also feel more alert every time I am driving and thank Q10 GOLD for this new me.
John | 28/07/2014
started taking Q10 after hearing a recommendation on radio, started feeling benefit within a month. You realise the benefit if you stop taking them you go back to feeling tired not wanting to do much etc. I have now been using Q10 for 5yrs. I am 65 and now attend gym 4 times a week completing full work outs feel fitter now than 10yrs ago.
Margaret | 18/07/2014
I think that this product is the best that you have on the market , both my husband and I take it. We find we have more energy and a general improvement in our overall well being,thank you once again.
Gregg Berlandi | 03/09/2013
The only health supplement I've ever taken where I've seen a noticeable difference, specifically in my energy levels in the morning and early afternoon. I wake up feeling more refreshed and I have loads more energy throughout the day - I really notice it if I miss a day's dose!
Aly Topping | 16/08/2013
I started taking this just for my general heart health but I have really noticed the difference with my energy levels increasing. I certainly feel more sluggish if I forget to take my Q10.
P. C. Whitmore | 01/05/2013
Excellent product. It was recommended by my husband's heart doctor due to his intolerance of the cholesterol statins. Ever since he consumes the Q10, he has no problem with his join and muscle pain.
Wendy Ann Shaw | 26/04/2013
I have been taking Bio-Quinone Q10 since September 2012. I have to admit I do believe my energy levels have increased. I have rheumatoid arthritis and have noticed what a difference I feel taking my Q10. Thank you
Julie Roadnight | 23/04/2013
Q10 is fantastic, I have been taking it for over 18 months and what a difference in my skin and brain function. Highly recommend this product.
Barbara Munt | 21/04/2013
my husband and I have been taking Q10 for more than 30 years. We are now 78 years of age. My husband is still running, has an allotment and swims, attends a gym 3 times a week. We are both very active living in an attractive small town in North Yorkshire which is very hilly, also live in a house which is part of a converted 28th century linen mill and has 3 floors, so have many steps. We are both promoters of Q10 and will continue to do so21st April 2013
Annie Cordner-Webster | 20/04/2013
My husband and I have taken Q10 for 22 years. I take 200mg daily and at 69plus I am active and able to carry out research work in education,spend quality time with work, home and family and enjoy walking,pilates and using our small home gym which includes an exercise bike and rowing machine!!!My husband is 77 and wouldn't go a day without Q10. I am really pleased that doctors are now slowly beginning to recognise the benfits from this marvelloues product. I never fail o share Q10 information with colleagues and friends. When I have hospital appointments I always add Q10 to any medications I happen to be taking.
Annabel Baker | 19/04/2013
I started taking Pharma Nord Bio-Quinone Gold 100mg because my immune system was not good. Also my cholesteral level was going up & i had already had a stroke. My energy levels where poor as i also have B12 deficiancy. I have been on them now for about 6mths. My immune system has really picked up, my cholesteral level has dropped & i have much more energy. I concider the decission to take this product to be one of the best i have made in my life.
Louise Coupar | 19/04/2013
I have been singing the praises of Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold 100mg so loudly that even my cynical GP (now retired) started to take them and has had eat his words. I learned about the benefits of taking Q10 when I attended a Fibromyalgia conference in Harrogate some years ago. Like millions of other Fibro sufferers I had been plagued by permanent 'flu-like' symptoms , with aching muscles and low energy levels.Within weeks of taking Super Bio-Quinone Q10 I started to get my life back on track-with raised energy levels and a greater feeling of well being.Shortly after retiring my former GP had a stroke. He was sapped of all energy and had statin related aching muscles. I persuaded him to give Q10 a whirl-after all what did he have to lose?The cynic is now a convert and takes Q10 regularly.I cannot recommend them highly enough !!
sue s | 19/04/2013
i am 68 years old , both myself and my husband have been taking Q10 for the last 18 years in all that time i have never had to have any treatment at the dentist other than a clean , my blood pressure is normal so is my cholesterol ,i get up at 4-00 am and i am very active i put it all down to taking Q10's with being on a pension i do find them expensive but manage to get the money together , its worth the expense to feel so well
Keith Bourne | 18/04/2013
Excellent
Janet Hicks | 18/04/2013
I have been taking the 100mg Q10 for several years now and believe it has made me look and feel much younger than my current 70 years of age. It is expensive, but I shall continue to take it as long as I can afford it.
Sally Waite | 18/04/2013
I often experience bleeding sore gums, and my dentist recommended I take this product. Within a short while of taking it, my gums are no longer a problem, and as an added bonus I have loads more energy and feel generally more healthy and vital. This supplement is also recommended by many naturopaths and wholistic pracitioners, it infuses cells in the body with energy and is a powerful antioxidant; I'm usually a bit of a sceptic when it comes to these things but I have seen the "proof in the pudding" for myself!!
Justin Carr | 18/04/2013
I am disabled and I enjoy taking Co-Q10 capsules as part of my fitnessish routine.....
Lynne Adams | 06/02/2013
This should be available on prescription!! I had a free trial included with some q10 face cream (that works wonders too). I decided to try it after reading the information about the benefits. After 3 weeks my worryingly high blood pressure had returned to normal. More importantly to me however, I noticed huge improvements in my health after 25 years suffering M.E. I am now working full time, swimming, horse-riding, and going ski-ing this year. Over the business of Christmas and being so well, I forgot to take it, and it was when I noticed a return of old symptoms I decided to reintroduce and my health is back on form again within 2 weeks. This product has changed my life!! I take 3 a day and all physical, mental, and emotional symptoms have dramatically improved or completely disappeared! I lead a 'normal' life for the first time in 25 years! I struggle to afford it as it is expensive, but I can't afford not to take it. Research needs to be undertaken in this respect; and if findings support my experience being repeated, it needs to be made available/affordable for all!
A Brown | 14/09/2012
I had a heart attack July 2010 and as a result I had a stent fitted and was put on the standard heart medications including Statins.I continued to train in the gym doing cardio and weights however I found that I had a lot less energy and strength. I suffered really bad pain in my shoulders and thighs, the pain was so bad that I seriously thought of stopping training as even swimming left me in pain. It felt like I had been hit very hard with a stick when I got out of bed every morning.I visited my GP who halved my statin medication with no effect I still had bad pain and felt realy down. My GP recommended that I try Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold 100mg as she had seen some research claiming that they had helped with muscle pain in other statin users.I must admit I did not think they would have much effect on me however after taking Q10 100mg twice a day I noticed a difference almost straight away, the pain went away and I had a lot more energy. I stopped taking Q10 for a couple of days as I could not believe the change and sure enough the pain returned. I was on a diving holiday with friends and one of my friends who is also on statins said he was having the same pain as myself, I gave him a weeks supply of Q10 to see if it could help him and he was amazed at the difference and now he also takes Q10 every day with the same results .Q10 has changed my opinion on supplements I used to think they were a gimmick however I could not be happier discovering Q10. These have been llife changing for me, that might sound an overeaction but in my case Q10 helped me gain back my strength, energy and pain free life which makes my life so much better. Thank you.
L Sheridan | 13/09/2012
I was conscious that my energy levels had dropped alarmingly. I couldn't understand why this was because I ate a good diet, did not drink, had never smoked and was not over-weight. I reluctantly assumed that this was the natural effect of aging and something I just had to get used to and accept as I got older. Knowing of Pharma Nord by reputation I bought a pack of Super Bio-Quinone Q10 and have been taking them ever since. I know it sounds unbelievable, but within a week of starting my first pack my energy levels rose amazingly and are now back to what they were fifteen years ago - provided I take Q10 regularly.
Nick K. | 02/05/2012
Excellent product. I'm taking the 100mg Q10 as recommended by my doctor and feel better. More tolerance in everyday activities and extra protection for my heart.
Pharma Nord
Pharma Nord Bio-Quinone Q10 SUPER 30mg 150caps
£25.45
Q10 Ubiquinone is known as Pharma Nord’s Bio-Quinone Q10.Coenzyme Q10 (Ubiquinone) is a vitamin-like substance which plays a vital role in the body’s energy supply mechanism, acting alongside enzymes converting fats and sugars into energy. All body cells require a supply of Q10, with the heart and muscle cells having a particularly high demand.This patented preparation delivers coenzyme Q10 in the active formula that has been documented in over 90 scientific studies to provide a consistently high level of bio-availability.
Why Pharma Nord Bio-Quinone Q10 Ubiquinone:
Manufactured to pharmaceutical standards.
Reference product for the International Coenzyme Q10 Association.
Oil-based formulation for optimum absorption.
Coenzyme quinones occur in several chemical forms, with coenzyme Q10 being the only form found in human tissues.
The human body is able to synthesize (in the liver) a limited amount of coenzyme Q10, with the remainder being obtained from the diet. Rich sources of coenzyme Q10 include fish (mackerel, salmon, sardines) and nuts. Under normal circumstances, the body is able to maintain adequate levels of coenzyme Q10. However, coenzyme Q10 levels decrease with age, and are depleted by intense physical exercise or illness.
Coenzyme Q10 is an essential cofactor of enzymes involved in the energy production process. Coenzyme Q10 is stored in mitochondria, structures found within cells responsible for the generation of energy (in the form of a molecule called ATP). Tissues with a high-energy requirement (heart, liver, skeletal muscles) contain higher numbers of mitochondria within their cells.
Mitochondria illustration: Inside the mitochondria, energy is produced from nutrients in the food we eat. A Q10 deficiency may be one of the reasons why cells fail to produce energy. This, in turn, weakens the body’s ability to protect itself against illness and the onset of old age.
Pharma Nord recommends 1-2 capsules per day, or as directed by a physician.
There are no known drug contraindications.
Pregnant or lactating women and those on medication should consult a doctor before using any product.
Shaun | 22/11/2016
Brilliant!! It is available on prescription, I take the Q10 Gold and the benefits are far too many to list, I feel better, no more muscle pains from statins and my Fibromyalgia has not flared at all since I started taking over 2 years ago, again BRILLIANT
Barbara Dunworth | 11/08/2016
Lifesaver! 100 mg Q10 boosted me out of the deep doldrums of M.E. and made life worth living again. I take it all the time but if I rin out my energy drops away within a week. Q10 is my friend for life xxxxxxx
Alex Sloan | 08/01/2016
I have been taking your products for some time now. My wife and myself take Bio-Quinone Active Q10 and Bio-Garlic as I have had bypass surgery 4 years ago. I am also on statin drugs and warfarin. My local health shop told me to take these as I am taking statin drugs and they will help. I am doing well and think your products are very good and will keep taking these tablets.
Karin Haake | 08/12/2015
Taking Pharma Nord products for years, very satisfied with them. Because I have to take statins my Liver Test has been Not very good. But since I started taking Q10, Gold, the Liver function Test improved a lot.
Gillian | 31/03/2015
My husband and I took Q10 for a couple of years and he also takes Omega 7 . I decided that the budget was being stretched by the Q10 and stopped buying it. I have noticed that my energy levels are really low again and the Q10 helped me before and will do again. This a really excellent company to deal with - any issues promptly dealt with.

Like millions of other Fibro sufferers I had been plagued by permanent 'flu-like' symptoms , with aching muscles and low energy levels.Within weeks of taking Super Bio-Quinone Q10 I started to get my life back on track-with raised energy levels and a greater feeling of well being.Shortly after retiring my former GP had a stroke. He was sapped of all energy and had statin related aching muscles. I persuaded him to give Q10 a whirl-after all what did he have to lose?The cynic is now a convert and takes Q10 regularly.I cannot recommend them highly enough !!

I have been taking the 100mg Q10 for several years now and believe it has made me look and feel much younger than my current 70 years of age. It is expensive, but I shall continue to take it as long as I can afford it.

I often experience bleeding sore gums, and my dentist recommended I take this product. Within a short while of taking it, my gums are no longer a problem, and as an added bonus I have loads more energy and feel generally more healthy and vital. This supplement is also recommended by many naturopaths and wholistic pracitioners, it infuses cells in the body with energy and is a powerful antioxidant; I'm usually a bit of a sceptic when it comes to these things but I have seen the "proof in the pudding" for myself!!

I am disabled and I enjoy taking Co-Q10 capsules as part of my fitnessish routine.....

This should be available on prescription!! I had a free trial included with some q10 face cream (that works wonders too). I decided to try it after reading the information about the benefits. After 3 weeks my worryingly high blood pressure had returned to normal. More importantly to me however, I noticed huge improvements in my health after 25 years suffering M.E. I am now working full time, swimming, horse-riding, and going ski-ing this year. Over the business of Christmas and being so well, I forgot to take it, and it was when I noticed a return of old symptoms I decided to reintroduce and my health is back on form again within 2 weeks. This product has changed my life!! I take 3 a day and all physical, mental, and emotional symptoms have dramatically improved or completely disappeared! I lead a 'normal' life for the first time in 25 years! I struggle to afford it as it is expensive, but I can't afford not to take it. Research needs to be undertaken in this respect; and if findings support my experience being repeated, it needs to be made available/affordable for all!

I had a heart attack July 2010 and as a result I had a stent fitted and was put on the standard heart medications including Statins.I continued to train in the gym doing cardio and weights however I found that I had a lot less energy and strength. I suffered really bad pain in my shoulders and thighs, the pain was so bad that I seriously thought of stopping training as even swimming left me in pain. It felt like I had been hit very hard with a stick when I got out of bed every morning.I visited my GP who halved my statin medication with no effect I still had bad pain and felt realy down. My GP recommended that I try Bio-Quinone Q10 Gold 100mg as she had seen some research claiming that they had helped with muscle pain in other statin users.I must admit I did not think they would have much effect on me however after taking Q10 100mg twice a day I noticed a difference almost straight away, the pain went away and I had a lot more energy. I stopped taking Q10 for a couple of days as I could not believe the change and sure enough the pain returned. I was on a diving holiday with friends and one of my friends who is also on statins said he was having the same pain as myself, I gave him a weeks supply of Q10 to see if it could help him and he was amazed at the difference and now he also takes Q10 every day with the same results .Q10 has changed my opinion on supplements I used to think they were a gimmick however I could not be happier discovering Q10. These have been llife changing for me, that might sound an overeaction but in my case Q10 helped me gain back my strength, energy and pain free life which makes my life so much better. Thank you.

I was conscious that my energy levels had dropped alarmingly. I couldn't understand why this was because I ate a good diet, did not drink, had never smoked and was not over-weight. I reluctantly assumed that this was the natural effect of aging and something I just had to get used to and accept as I got older. Knowing of Pharma Nord by reputation I bought a pack of Super Bio-Quinone Q10 and have been taking them ever since. I know it sounds unbelievable, but within a week of starting my first pack my energy levels rose amazingly and are now back to what they were fifteen years ago - provided I take Q10 regularly.
Nick K. | 02/05/2012
Excellent product. I'm taking the 100mg Q10 as recommended by my doctor and feel better. More tolerance in everyday activities and extra protection for my heart.

Astragalus is one of the great tonic herbs as it strongly tonifies the vital Qi of the body as well as generates blood and fluids. It is a first class herb for maintaining a healthy immune system. This is a premium energy tonic for athletes and anyone looking for more day to day energy and vitality.
Astragalus is categorized as an Energy (Qi) tonifying herb. It thus directly supports the Lung and Spleen organs in the body. By supporting those organs, energy derived from the foods you eat and the air you breathe is increased.
As an immune system tonic, Astragalus tonifies what the Chinese call "wei qi" or "protective qi" which is the energy that runs just below the surface of the skin. It helps the body to fight off external pathogens that you may come in contact with.
Astragalus also houses what is call "upright qi" which is the energy in the body that supports upright posture and the correct position of the organs. Weak "upright qi" can lead to organ prolapse, slumping or slouching, and general feelings of fatigue.

Why is it important to Support Your Liver and Gallbladder?Your liver is extremely important to a number of processes in your body. It’s responsible for:
producing bile, which helps to break down fat.
Helping to remove bilirubin (a substance in bile)
Storing energy for future use (glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver)
Plays a crucial role in filtering toxic waste out of your blood, including external toxins and metabolic waste products.
But this only scratches the surface of what the liver does, it’s actually the most multifaceted organ in your body performing 1000s of tasks every second of the day!When your liver is not functioning optimally, it can create a variety of different problems, such as :
Jaundice (yellowing of the skin & eyes)
Nausea & vomiting
Itchy skin
Bruising easily
Bloody, black or pale stool
Decreased appetite
Weakness & fatigue
Swollen legs & abdomen
A variety of Autoimmune problems can occur
More mild symptoms of the Liver being Suboptimal that a naturopathic doctor would commonly look out for include low tolerance to fatty foods, pain around the right shoulder blade, constipation, gut dysbiosis, headaches, allergies + intolerances and joint pain.What Damages the Health of Your Liver and Gallbladder?The most commonly known condition is called fatty liver disease, which is mainly linked with excessive alcohol consumption. However, it is possible to develop non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.There are many factors that can contribute to poor liver health:
Poor diet - eating too much, too often, and too processed foods all stress the liver
Excessive alcohol consumption
Being overweight or obese
Not exercising enough
Smoking
Excessive use of medicines, such as ibuprofen & paracetamol
Excessive exposure to environmental toxins like Mold, Heavy Metals and Pesticides
Hepatitis infection through unprotected sex, exposing yourself to other peoples blood and sharing needles to take drugs
Inhalation, consumption or absorption (through skin) of toxic products, such as cleaning sprays, air fresheners, aerosols (including deodorant) and other chemicals
Stress, depression & anxiety
How Do You Test the Health of Your Liver?Liver function tests, or liver chemistries, measure the levels of bilirubin, liver enzymes and proteins in your blood.Different variations of liver chemistries are: Bilirubin test, Albumin test, ALT test (alanine transaminase), AST test (aspartate aminotransferase), and ALP test (alkaline phosphatase).If your levels are too high, or too low in any of these tests then it could indicate there is some damage to the health of your liver.However, these tests are not very sensitive to minor reductions to your liver’s optimal functioning. Most naturopathic doctors agree that periodically supporting your liver with some kind of herbal combination is a good idea, even for those with otherwise excellent health, even if only as a preventative measure.The Top 10 Ways to Improve the Health of Your Liver and Gallbladder:Here’s the top 10 lifestyle changes you can make to support the health of your liver:
Eat a nutrient dense, organic diet. A poor diet can cause fat to build up in the liver (fatty liver disease) which can inhibit the liver's ability to play it’s part in metabolism. This can also lead to scarring or hardening of the liver [1] Foods containing Choline are important to prevent this, like egg yolks, liver and nuts and seeds. (see below for recommendations if you don’t regularly enjoy these foods.)
Don’t consume alcohol excessively. As with poor diet, excessive consumption of alcohol can lead to fat building up in the liver (alcoholic fatty liver disease) [2]
Maintain a healthy weight. If you eat a clean organic diet then your weight should normalize over time [3]. Being overweight will cause a build up of fats in the liver and hinder its ability to function properly.
Exercise regularly. Around 150 minutes a week is recommended, and there are many benefits to consistently exercising regularly, and this will help to reduce fat on the liver [4]
Cut down on painkillers. Excessive use of painkillers, such as paracetamol and ibuprofen can cause damage to your liver [5]. Only take them if you absolutely need to and try to stick to minimum doses, discontinuing use as soon as possible.
Avoid toxic chemicals. Toxic chemicals can enter our bodies through our skin (especially cuts), inhalation, consumption and even through our eyes. Aerosol deodorants and air fresheners are easily overlooked examples.If you’re going to use aerosols or kitchen sprays, make sure the room is well ventilated or wear a mask, and be sure to steer clear from air fresheners [6]. This is also why it’s a good idea to purify what you take in, whether it’s a high quality air purifier, water purifier, or pure (organic) food…it gives your liver less toxicity that it has to handle.
Avoid unprotected sex and don’t share needles. Unprotected sex can lead to the contamination of the hepatitus virus. Hepatitis can lead to a long term autoimmune system developing, which causes a build of scar tissue in liver cells [7].You can also catch hepatitis from sharing bodily fluids with infected through needles, cuts and sores. If you are struggling with a drug problem, speak to your physician for help.
Fast Occasionally. We get it, no one enjoys not eating! But never missing a meal is not very natural…most animals in nature, and our ancestors, would have had times of hunger. And during those times, your body goes into what’s called a catabolic state, where it basically clears out the backlog of waste that has been building up, and breaks down and recycles old cells.
It’s also a chance for your liver to unburden itself of fats that may have built up as it burns them for fuel. If the idea of going a day without food seems too much, consider intermittent fasting, a very popular strategy these days amongst people seeking to lose weight, improve their health, or who just want to optimize their performance! [8]
Lower your stress and improve your mood. Stress can indirectly and directly damage hepatic tissue [9]. There are many ways to reduce stress and improve your mood and anxieties, such as meditation and psychotherapy.
Support your liver with the building blocks it needs for optimal function:
Dandelion. A study showed that dandelion helped to prevent damage to the liver in mice [10]. More studies on animals have shown that dandelion can help to protect the liver from oxidative stress, as well as reducing the levels of stored fat [11]. Traditionally, Dandelion was used as a cholagogue, meaning it causes your liver and gallbladder to excrete bile, which also helps mobilize any build up of excess fat.Milk Thistle. Scientifically known as silybum marianum - milk thistle is well known for its powerful “liver protecting” effects, and is commonly used as a complementary therapy by people who have liver damage [12].Zinc. A study on 60 non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis patients showed that zinc supplementation improved liver function, while helping to prevent the excessive accumulation of copper that can lead to damage of the liver [13].Choline. An essential nutrient that is crucial to make substances required to remove cholesterol (fat) from the liver, which is also important for many other bodily functions [14]. Hard to get from a plant based diet, and some people need a lot more than others due to genetic factors (see Genetic Insights to find out if this is you)Beetroot. Possesses a compound called glutathione, which has the ability to help detox the body of toxins [15], and also Betaine, a precursor to Choline.Artichoke Extract. Increases bile production in the liver, as well as promoting the growth of new liver tissue - all while protecting the liver from damage because of the antioxidant silymarin found in artichokes [16].Chanca piedra. Contains powerful antioxidants that can help to protect the liver from free radicals and improve liver function [17]. Its name translates as ‘stone breaker’ and it has been traditionally used in South America to break apart calcified stones in the gallbladder and kidneys.Yarrow. Scientifically known as achillea millefolium, test tube studies have shown that yarrow can help to reduce inflammation of the liver [18].Jujube Fruit Extract. Rich in antioxidants, a study on animals found that flavonoids found in jujube helped to reduce inflammation and stress in the liver [19].Introducing Feel Younger® Liver Support with Milk Thistle + DandelionWe understand that it’s not always easy, nor practical to implement a variety of lifestyle changes - especially all at once.We’d advise that you make as many of those changes as possible, but do so 1 or 2 at a time, make sure they stick and then move onto more.In the meantime, you can support your body with the essential nutrients and minerals it needs that can help you to support the health of your liver.That’s why we’ve included the above ingredients in our Liver Support with Milk Thistle & Dandelion supplement, along with:Chicory root, Alfalfa, Burdock Root, Celery Seed, Feverfew, Grape seed extract, L-Cysteine HCL, Methionine, Yellow Dock, N-Acetyl Cysteine, Raspberry juice powder, Turmeric, Berberine HCL and Ginger to enhance the effects even further.By combining all of these ingredients together into an easy to swallow capsule, we’ve taken the stress out of buying each of these ingredients separately, researching and experimenting how much of each you should take and then incorporating them into your diet/supplement regime.Here at Feel younger, we believe in providing strong doses at reasonable prices.

Lion Heart Herbs
Nettle Root powder extract 100g (Lion Heart Herbs)
£24.00
Throughout early Europe, nettles were credited with nourishing and immune-stimulating properties.
Nettle tea was used for intestinal weakness, diarrhea, and malnutrition -- uses that persist to the present time. Nettles also act as a diuretic and are useful in treating kidney weakness and bladder infections. As a diuretic, nettles can help rid the body of excess fluid (edema) in persons with weakened hearts and poor circulation. Nettles also have been used topically to treat eczema and skin rashes and soothe arthritic and rheumatic joints. In fact, the plant has been most widely studied for its value in the treatment of arthritis and gout. When uric acid, a product of protein digestion, accumulates in the joints and tissues, a very painful inflammatory condition known as gout can result. One tablespoon of fresh nettle juice several times a day has been shown to help clear uric acid from the tissues and enhance its elimination from the body. Fresh nettle preparations sting a bit, and it is this sting that seems to have a healing effect: The reddening and stinging of the skin appear to reduce the inflammatory processes of dermatologic conditions (such as eczema) and rheumatic conditions (such as arthritis and gout). The tiny, stinging hairs contain formic acid and a bit of histamine. (Mosquitoes and biting ants also secrete formic acid, which is responsible for the familiar stinging and itching of their bites.) Nettles also are high in anti-inflammatory flavonoids, and they contain small amounts of plant sterols. They are extremely rich in vital nutrients, including vitamin D, which is rare in plants; vitamins C and A; and minerals, including iron, calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium. Since nettles contain numerous nourishing substances, they are used in cases of malnutrition, anemia, and rickets, and as a tonic to help repair wounds and broken bones. You can cook nettles and eat them as you would steamed spinach -- their taste and appearance are similar. Nettles are a healthy and tasty addition to scrambled eggs, pasta dishes, casseroles, and soups. You also can juice nettles and combine the juice with other fresh juices, such as carrot or apple juice, for weak, debilitated persons, such as cancer and AIDS patients. Nettle preparations also have been shown to be effective in controlling hay fever symptoms. Nettle root has been found to increase a protein in the blood to which hormones bind. Ingesting nettle root helps to effectively reduce the amount of sex hormones that are "unbound"; that is, free to affect various tissues in the body. This can be helpful in cases of excessive hormonal stimulation, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome in women or benign prostatic hyperplasia in men.
Feel Younger
Feel Younger - Magnesium Glycinate 425mg 60caps
£19.00
What is Magnesium?Magnesium is an important mineral that’s crucially important for your body to function properly.It’s the fourth most abundant mineral found in your body[2] and it’s essential to all living cells and vital for myriad physiological functions[3].The reason why the benefits are so numerous and varied is because of the many ways that optimal levels of magnesium are necessary to function optimally.For instance, magnesium is required for the production of ATP (the main source of energy in our cells)[4], and the production of DNA, RNA, and proteins[5].Magnesium plays an important role in cell-to-cell communication[6].Over 300 enzymes (biological catalysts that make chemical processes happen in our body) require the presence of magnesium to function properly[7].Because of its positive charge, magnesium stabilizes the cellular membranes[8].How common is magnesium deficiency?While a deficiency severe enough to warrant medical attention is relatively rare, some health professionals believe that suboptimal levels of magnesium are relatively common, with estimates as high as 75% of people in the US not having a sufficient intake,[16] let alone an optimal intake, which has yet to be precisely defined.As with any essential nutrient, here at Feel Younger we believe that it’s always ideal to test your magnesium levels to be sure if it would be beneficial to take.The best tests for Magnesium are generally considered to be: RBC (red blood cell) or intracellular magnesium, to get a true understanding of overall deficiency.The more common tests are plasma or serum magnesium, which are much cheaper and easily available, but which are less of a true reflection of your body’s stores of magnesium, as your body will tend to keep your plasma and serum levels in a tight range in all but severe cases of deficiency.RBC (red blood cell) or intracellular magnesium tests, on the other hand, are considered to give a more accurate indication of true, overall levels of magnesium stores in the cells, which is what actually matters when assessing if levels are optimum.If you’re unable to access these tests however, then, given that Magnesium is a natural substance that is very safe for the vast majority of the population (see below for exceptions), it seems reasonable to try it, if you would like to support your body to Feeling Younger and Healthier, especially if you identify with some of the early signs of deficiency listed above.What causes Magnesium Deficiency?The most commonly understood causes of Magnesium Deficiency include[17]:
a poor diet
type 2 diabetes
digestive problems such as Crohn’s disease
long-term vomiting or diarrhoea
kidney problems
long-term use of diuretics
some medicines (for example, fluid tablets and medicines for ulcers or reflux) can cause low magnesium levels if taken for long periods
alcoholism
In addition, some healthcare professionals point to the fact that, even in the case of a relatively good diet, it’s an established fact that the soil in which our food grows is 75%-90% lower in essential minerals like magnesium than it was 100 years ago.[18]So whether you’re eating plants, which can only get the minerals from the soil, or whether you’re eating animals that ate those plants, the results is the same: the food we’re eating is more mineral depleted, and therefore magnesium depleted, than it was up until relatively recently in our evolution.Finally, there is strong evidence that stress itself depletes magnesium[19]. This creates a vicious cycle where stress depletes magnesium, and then lowered magnesium reduces stress. Presumably, in order to break this cycle, you would need to replenish magnesium as well as reduce stress.What’s the Best Form of Magnesium to Take?There are many different forms of magnesium available, including citrate, sulfate, oxide, chloride and malate.However, the form that’s considered the best, the most easily absorbed by the body, is Magnesium Glycinate.Forms of magnesium that are less well absorbed and cheaper, like for instance magnesium oxide, have a laxative effect. As a general rule, the less well absorbed the form of magnesium is, the more of a laxative effect it’ll have.When consuming mineral supplements, the best form is generally considered to be when it’s chelated (chemically bonded) to an amino acid. Why is this? Because minerals in their raw form are inorganic, meaning that the body does not recognise them as food, often doesn’t absorb them well, and then also struggles to excrete them.Conversely, when a mineral is bonded to an amino acid, or chelated, this makes the mineral and Organic Mineral i.e. it’s the same form found in food, and so your body recognises the magnesium as food, and absorbs it a lot better.Magnesium Glycinate then, the type sold by Feel Younger, is considered the best form of magnesium because it’s bonded to Glycine, an abundant amino acid in the body which has a whole host of it’s own benefits[20], including:
Glycine is one of the building blocks of the body’s most powerful natural antioxidant, glutathione
Necessary to make collagen, for healthy skin
Can improve sleep quality
Can help keep blood sugar balanced
May protect the liver and the heart
Can protect against muscle loss.
Although Glycine is not considered as an essential amino acid, because the body is capable of making its own, if necessary, many healthcare professionals consider it a good idea to increase glycine intake, either through natural foods like bone broth, or via supplementation.Feel Younger is proud to present our Magnesium Glycinate, containing 425mg of Elemental Magnesium per serving, which is close to the recommended daily amount for most people, enough to make up for the shortfall in almost any diet.How do you take Feel Younger ® Magnesium Glycinate?Ideally take with water directly before eating a meal, for maximum absorption, but can be taken any time, or as directed by a healthcare professional.Are there any cautions?Though magnesium supplements are generally considered safe, you should check with a healthcare professional before taking them, especially if you have a medical condition.The mineral supplement may be unsafe for people who take certain diuretics, heart medications, or antibiotics[21].Most people who take magnesium supplements don’t experience side effects, but magnesium can cause gut-related issues such as diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting, especially when used in large doses[22].It’s important to note that people with kidney issues are at a higher risk of experiencing adverse effects related to magnesium supplements[23].Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet or lifestyle.
