Which Co-Q-10?

Hi Mito Grandma, CO-Q10, varies in both quality and cost. as you can see from your research prices vary. The best indicator is clinical. Does the brand your using afford the same results. Q-gel which is supposed to be superior in it's bioavailibilty is certainly more expensive, and come in a variety of forms. and dosages. you can see what would be the best value for your situation. ie: total dose You could email Raj Chopra and pose the same question ( he is the owner of Tishcon, the maker of Q-gel. there is an email address for him on the Tishcon homepage, Q-gel is distributed by epic4health.com, you may call or email them and as long as you mention it is for a Mito patient, you will be given a discount. I would really email Raj, and question him on the difference between Q-gel, and other forms of Q-10. I can tell you that a lot of research has been done by Tishcon, and that they alone hold a orphan drug status from the FDA, which means Q-gel is exactly the same as the Co-q that is found in your body. I don't believe anyone knows for sure which is superior. there are other forms of Co-q on the horizon. Lastly speaking only from personal experience, I can tell you that I use Qgel and have for years. I find that it seems to work better than other forms. I supplement it with my Vitamin Cocktail as I don't find that the Cocktail version works as well. Also, if your Granddaughter is on the vitamin cocktail, the co_q in it though not Q-gel is sometimes covered by Insurance. I speak only for myself, and no others. Sometimes all you can do is try different versions of Co-q, but always go with a trusted name in supplements. Good Luck, And God Bless. Lori :-),with the help of my husband(Mark) :)
