Active Complex Q10 Gold 100mg 90 Capsules

Pharmanord's Coenzyme Q10 has, for decades, been one of the best-selling Q10 supplements thanks to its widely documented bioavailability.

It contains Q10 which is identical to the coenzyme Q10 that is manufactured by the human body.

The form of Q10 used in this product is the natural all-trans form, free of any synthetic cis-isomers. It contains none of the contaminants that can be found in other Q10 raw materials, most of which are not documented.

What is ActiveComplex Q10
ActiveComplex Q10 was launched in 1990 and at that time was one of the first Q10 preparations on the European market.

Each of the dark, soft gelatin capsules contains 30 mg of coenzyme Q10 dissolved in vegetable oil. The active compound has an extremely high bioavailability due to the fact that the oil matrix in which it is contained has undergone a special thermal process that achieves complete dissolution of the molecules.

The increased bioavailability of ActiveComplex Q10 is documented in many studies. The many years that ActiveComplex Q10 has been on the European markets make it one of the best proven Q10 products.

Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance that plays an important role in the energy metabolism of cells. This compound actively contributes to the conversion of fat, carbohydrates, proteins and alcohol into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), a molecule that stores energy in its chemical form. When a cell needs energy, it breaks down the ATP molecule and releases the energy stored inside it. This whole process takes place inside cells, in a series of bean-shaped structures called mitochondria. Muscle cells in particular rely on large amounts of energy, which is why muscle cells contain far more mitochondria than other cell types. The heart muscle is a good example of a body tissue with cells containing a large number of mitochondria due to the enormous energy requirements of the heart.
Coenzyme Q10 is also a powerful antioxidant.

ActiveComplex Q10 is a potent antioxidant
The ability of coenzyme Q10 to capture and donate electrons makes it highly suitable for eliminating reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can occur naturally as waste products of the body's metabolism, or as a result of external factors such as radiation or chemical pollution. Substances with these properties are called antioxidants. Supported by other antioxidants, such as vitamin E, vitamin C and natural enzymes, coenzyme Q10 is a defence mechanism against these potentially dangerous oxygen compounds.
