Mi CoQ10 FAQ

What results can I see from taking CoQ10? CoQ10 is an important building block for your body’s energy-producing functions. It also helps keep your cells young and happy!

Benefits include:

  • Toxin removal: CoQ10 performs mitochondrial detoxification and strengthens permeability. (source)

  • Skin health: CoQ10 reduces wrinkles and aging of the skin. (source) (Read more about CoQ10 and skin health HERE.)

  • Energy and stamina (for athletes and everyone!): CoQ10 helps with exercise performance and recovery. (source) (Read more about CoQ10 and stamina HERE.)

  • Reduced sugar cravings: CoQ10 can help reset the systems that can cause sugar cravings. (Read more about CoQ10 and sugar cravings HERE.)

How should I take the CoQ10? We recommend taking your main dosage in the morning, to help supply your cells with energy.

How much should I take? The recommended dose is 2 softgels (~200 mg) per day in the morning, with or before breakfast. If you have any hesitation (due to a history of being sensitive to supplements, for example) you can begin with just one softgel in the morning.
