CoQ10 / Ubiquinol / Mitochondrial Antioxidant
A fat-soluble quinone essential for mitochondrial ATP production. Levels in skin decline with age and UV exposure. Topically reduces UV-induced oxidative stress, inhibits MMP production, and measurably reduces wrinkles in clinical trials. Orally one of the most studied longevity supplements — supporting cardiovascular, mitochondrial function and energy. Ubiquinol (reduced form) has superior oral bioavailability.
Topical 0.01–0.3% in serums or eye creams, AM and/or PM. Oral ubiquinol 100–200mg/day with a fat-containing meal. Especially important over 40 or on statins (which deplete CoQ10).
