Coenzyme Q-10 (CoQ-10 or Ubiquinone) is a naturally occurring quinone that is found in most aerobic organisms from bacteria to mammals. It was first identified in 1940, and isolated from the mitochondria of the beef heart, in 1957.

Accordingly, how is ubiquinol best absorbed?

Ubiquinol is transported in the blood by attaching to lipid low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL cholesterol) particles. If coenzyme Q10 is ingested, the body quickly transforms it into Ubiquinol via an enzymatic reaction, making it the form that is most preferred by the body for transport in the blood. What increases CoQ10 absorption? The absorption of CoQ10 is much better when it is ingested together with a meal containing some fat or oil (Bhagavan & Chopra 2006; Vitetta 2018).
