Pioneering CoQ10 & Ubiquinol Science.
Advancing Mitochondrial Health.

Kaneka Ubiquinol® is the active antioxidant form of CoQ10, important for maintaining mitochondrial function. Kaneka Nutrients’ proprietary fermentation process results in the all-trans isomer Ubiquinol that is bioidentical to the body’s own ubiquinol, free from cis-isomers generated during synthetic CoQ10 manufacturing. Kaneka’s technology makes it possible to stabilize Kaneka Ubiquinol®, keeping it in its reduced form to maintain its active antioxidant function.
