One doc I saw wanted me to take CoQ10, 100mg a day.

I was wondering what people take and where's a cheap place to get it.

The one that they had at the office was $56 for not many pills. Yikes!

Greenandhealthy has it for less, but it's still pricey for me.

Thanks!

My husband and I were using Xymogen's CoQMaxCf, but it got to be too expensive.

We now take Douglas Labs' Citrus-Q10 100 as recommended by my Integrative Dr.

My LLMD recommended Researched Nutritionals which is 400 mg and only needs to be taken once a day.

Pure Encapsulations makes a good Ubiquinol gel cap with no additives.

Co- Q10/Ubiquinol is expensive, it's just the way it is.

Ubiquinol is a purer form of CQ10. It's believed to be beneficial for the heart and I have issues there.

So I spend the extra money and take 200mg a day.
I use Swanson and it's $21.99 a month.

Co-Q10 converts into Ubiquinol in the body. I have been using it for about four years. Apparently, you can use less of it because it's already in the active form.

Personally, I think the gel caps absorb better and that's what I read.

I can't take it, too stimulating for me. But my boyfriend takes 100 mg that we got at traders joes90 softgels for 17.99.

I got an add for 300 mg at Costco but don't remember the price since that was higher than he usually takes.
