Guest guest Posted December 11, 2001 Report Share Posted December 11, 2001 Thanks for the Swanson's tip. That's an extraordinarily low Q10 price! It's also in the soft-gel form, which, I remember reading, was a desireable way of taking it. If my calculations are correct, you'd pay around 69.5 cents a day, for 200 mg, for 50 days! That's what many companies charge for 100mg a day, which is still a strong dose. - " the desert_rat " <ron Tuesday, December 11, 2001 7:14 AM CoQ10 > http://www.swansonvitamins.com/ > > Swanson's has a selection of Q10 (all potencies) that seem to run about > .007-.008 cents per mg. > I don't remember how that compares to previous posts. > > Good selection of Borage oil too. > > Ron > _____________ > Get the FREE email that has everyone talking at > http://www.mail2world.com > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 2001 Report Share Posted December 11, 2001 Dr.Jon's price is $0.0041 per milligram, or nearly half the cost of Swanson. However, Dr.Jon is closing membership in a few days so after that his prices will be a moot point to anyone not a co-op member.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Alobar I think you miscalculated here. Swanson item #SWU 561 provides 100, 100mg Co Q10 softgels, for $34.79. If I take 2 softgels daily (total 200mg; the dose I prefer), it will come to 69.6 cents a day. Dr. Jon offers 60, 60mg caps, for $14.68. If you take 3 caps daily (total 180mg), it will come to 73.4 cents a day; and that's for 20 mg less daily. Clearly, the Swanson product is a good deal cheaper. Shipping charges are the same for both companies. - " Alobar " <alobar Tuesday, December 11, 2001 10:31 AM Re: CoQ10 > Dr.Jon's price is $0.0041 per milligram, or nearly half the cost of > Swanson.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Morning John, Clearly, the Swanson product is a good deal cheaper. >Shipping charges are the same for both companies. I order from Swanson regularly. Their prices are about the best on most items. What do you think about their Green MAX product? I use 1 tbs per day of this material. The product has a good blend. The probiotic count is good. However the way it is stated, " at the time of manufacture " suggest that it will have declined over time. Likely other similar products do the same thing. I simply add the Green MAX to my daily protein drink, along with two tbs flax oil and two tbs of whipping cream. The idea is to get more energy from fat and less from carbs. Also just started checking my glucose from time to time. Thus far, it ranges from 83 to 110. At present I am not taking any CoQ10 or Chromium. I just happen to be out of these at the moment. If anyone wants to see the " world champion " supplement freak, take a look at this. http://smart-drugs.net/ias-southprogr.htm I think someone on here may have posted the parent link. This is awesome to say the least. Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 I was comparing Dr.Jon's price to that given by Ron for Swanson (about ..007-.008 cents per mg). The price you gave (100, 100mg Co Q10 softgels, for $34.79) works out to $.003497/mg, which is 15% cheaper than Dr.Jon.

Judy - Jane MacRoss Monday, May 01, 2006 12:52 AM CoQ10 CoQ10 is so dear here - the best deal currently about 30mg x 30 caps $11 (w/s) otherwise you get 10mg caps in the supermarket for the same cost and they say anything less than 100mg a day is not worth taking Jane ----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 What is Ubiquinol? Is it the same or different from CoQ10? A. Ubiquinol and CoQ10 are very closely related. Ubiquinone or CoQ10 is the oxidized form of the molecule. This means it has to be converted to a non-oxidized form before it can perform its work. Ubiquinol is the active form of this nutrient. Our bodies convert CoQ10 to Ubiquinol – which is the form needed to produce cellular energy. Until recently, it was not possible to use Ubiquinol as a supplement because it is very unstable outside the human body. But research has now found a way to keep this molecule stable so it can be successfully taken in supplement form. --Jerry Hickey, RPh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
