Synthetic Coenzyme Q-10

[Guest guest]

yes, isomers may have unknown long term effect, most isomers are harmless,

synthetic Q10 however seems to contain less than 1% cis isomer and I guess pure

cis was tested Japan and found harmless, so no big problem with Q10. Synthetic

Vitamin k1 a molecule closely related to Q10 contains about 20% cis, trans is

the natural form, a bigger problem is Vitamin E like DL-Tocopherol, I would

not take DL-Tocopherol, 50% isomers is too much, and there is a natural

alternative available. Yes I would call racemic mixtures of vitamins drugs

unless the

percentage of possible long term toxic isomers is quite low, lets say at

least lower 25 %.
