CoQsol-CF is a patent pending formulation of crystal-free Coenzyme Q10 in d-limonene oil. CoQsol-CF also provides added antioxidant protection from mixed tocopherols. CoQ10 is a nutrient that supports heart function and promotes energy production in cells. CoQ10 is a versatile antioxidant, which stabilizes cell membranes, protecting them from free radical damage. CoQ10 can also powerfully support immune function.*

CoQsol-CF provides the well-known benefits of CoQ10 in a formula designed for enhanced bioavailability. CoQ10 is itself a highly unstable molecule that is prone to crystallization upon exposure to heat, light and air. This crystallization process decreases absorption and bioavailability of the CoQ10. CoQsol-CF solves this problem by providing crystal-free CoQ10 that is highly soluble. The end result of using CoQsol-CF is that more of the CoQ10 is actually available for use by the body in performing its critical functions.*

CoQsol-CF Boosts Cellular Energy Production
Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like nutrient found in the human body. Essential to life, CoQ10 works at the cellular level to produce energy for metabolism in the form of ATP. CoQ10 serves as a vital link in the "electron transport chain," which is the final step in the production of ATP in the mitochondria of cells. Without an adequate supply of CoQ10, cells can become energy-deficient, slowing down a number of critical cellular processes. When cells are nourished with optimal levels of CoQ10, tissues, organs and systems function properly.*

Strengthens and Protects the Heart
The heart is the hardest working muscle in the body. Because of its high energy requirements, the heart needs Co Q10 at all times. The highest concentration of CoQ10 in the human body occurs in heart muscle tissue. Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated significant improvements in heart function with oral administration of CoQ10. Studies are increasingly showing an ability of CoQ10 to improve energy production in heart cell mitochondria by bypassing defective components in the respiratory chain, as well as to protect heart tissue from the effects of chronic oxidative stress.*

Supports Immune Function
When the immune system goes into battle for us, immune cells need large amounts of energy to carry out their defensive functions. CoQ10 is required for this energy to be available. Experimental research on animals has shown that CoQ10 enhances immune functions, such as the activity of phagocytes, and antibody production.*

Antioxidant Protection
CoQ10 is a versatile antioxidant. The reduced form of CoQ10, ubiquinol-10, has been found to protect LDL against peroxidation by free radicals more effectively than vitamin E, and in vitro studies suggest that CoQ10 in combination with vitamin E protects LDL cholesterol from oxidation more effectively than vitamin E alone. Protecting LDL from being oxidized by free radicals is a major factor in maintaining cardiovascular health.*

CoQ10 stabilizes membranes, thus protecting them from free radical damage. In addition, studies have shown that CoQ10’s potent free radical scavenging properties extend to brain tissue, where CoQ10 may protect neurons from the ravages of oxidative damage. Along with conferring protection to heart and brain tissues, CoQ10 has also been shown to enhance the levels of other antioxidant vitamins in the circulation, such as vitamins, A, C and E.*

Benefits the Gums
A number of studies have shown that CoQ10 supports repair of gingival (gum) tissue. Gingival tissues in people with periodontal disease have been found deficient in CoQ10. In several double-blind clinical trials, oral administration of CoQ10 has resulted in significant improvements.*

Diverse Clinical Benefits
A number of research studies and clinical reports suggest a broad range of potential benefits from CoQ10 supplementation, stemming from its ability to support the heart and cardiovascular system, the immune system, cellular energy production, liver function, nerves, and muscles.*

Capsule And Tablet Information
Q. What are your capsules made of?
A. Doctor's Best capsules are typical gelatin capsules, with the exception of select products now available in veggie cap form. They are made of gelatin from cattle, like the familiar "Knox gelatin" sold in grocery stores.

The gelatin used to make Doctor's Best's capsules is manufactured in accordance with strict guidelines that ensure it is BSE-free. The FDA and the supplement industry approved these guidelines. The gelatin is made only from cattle living in non-BSE countries. All Doctor's Best capsules are in full compliance with the FDA's September 1997 industry guide, The Sourcing and Processing of Gelatin to Reduce the Potential Risk Posed by Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in FDA-Regulated Products for Human Use.

Q. How long does it take for a capsule to dissolve?
A. Approximately 30-45 minutes. For 2-piece gelatin capsule, the USP standard for maximum dissolution time is 45 minutes.

Q. How long does it take for a tablet to dissolve?

A. FDA Rules & Regulations require tablets to dissolve in 45 minutes or less. However, Doctor's Best sets its standards higher. They require that their tablets dissolve in 30 minutes or less. Every lot of products in tablet form is tested to verify that it dissolves in under 30 minutes.

Q. Can I find out how fast a capsule or tablet dissolves by dropping it in a glass of water or vinegar at home?

A. Testing dissolution times at home using vinegar is not an accurate way to learn what happens to capsules and tablets in your stomach. Because stomach acid is much stronger than vinegar, capsules and tablets dissolve much faster in the stomach than in a glass of water or vinegar. Also, the stomach continually "agitates" its contents, much like a washing machine does.
Vitamin And Dosage Intake
Q. Whodetermines what the daily dosage should be? And how is this done?
A. A panel of scientists at The Natural Academy of Sciences performs extensive research, ongoing clinical studies and scientific testing in order to determine the RDI (Recommended Daily Intake).

Q. I see that Silicon Dioxide has been used as an excipient in some of your products. Should I be concerned?

A. Silicon Dioxide is a GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) food additive. Numerous studies have found the following:
    The oral toxicity for humans would be greater than 350 grams in one dose based on allometric comparisons between the mice studied and humans.

    A single dose of 2,500mg of amorphous polymeric silicon dioxide to human volunteers did not significantly raise the SiO2 excretion in the urine. This suggests poor absorption of silicon dioxide (Langendorf 1966).

    Less than one one-hundredth (1/100th) of the dose was found in urine, suggesting extremely poor absorption (Langendorf 1966).

    This would suggest that there is no scientific reason to eliminate silicon dioxide as an excipient at the very low levels found in dietary supplements.
Q. Why is silicon dioxide used as an excipient in Doctor’s Best products? Why are excipients used at all?
A. Silicon Dioxide is used as a flow agent to enable "sticky" substances to flow through the encapsulation equipment. If silicon dioxide were not used, other flow agents would have to be used which would actually increase the number of excipients found in a given product. Ideally, the fewer excipients used, the better.

Q. Is there a limit to how many vitamins can be taken safely in one day?
A. Our bodies need vitamins and minerals, and if taken in large amounts, vitamins and minerals can adversely affect health. Large amounts of anything can be toxic. Our best advice is to work with a nutritionally aware doctor and follow label directions.
