Why We Chose Kaneka Q30® Ubiquinol form of CoQ10 for Daily Energy and Heart Health

Why We Chose Kaneka Q30® Ubiquinol form of CoQ10 for Daily Energy and Heart Health

Heart, brain, and muscle cells all run on energy. Ubiquinol is the active form of CoQ10—essential for mitochondrial performance and cardiovascular health. That’s why we use Kaneka Q30®, the gold-standard form trusted in clinical studies and by medical professionals worldwide.

What Is Kaneka Q30®?

Kaneka Q30® is a patented, bioactive form of Ubiquinol—the reduced, antioxidant form of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). Unlike the more common ubiquinone form, Ubiquinol is the exact form used in the body to produce energy (ATP) and protect cells from oxidative stress.

Kaneka is the only producer of Ubiquinol made in the USA using a fermentation-based process. It’s backed by 30+ years of safety, stability, and clinical research.

What It Does (and Why It Matters for Men 40+)

By age 40, our natural levels of CoQ10 and Ubiquinol decline sharply—especially if we're under stress, exercising heavily, or taking statins. That loss impacts:

  • Cardiovascular endurance

  • Brain fog and cognitive performance

  • Energy output in mitochondria

  • Recovery from physical exertion

  • Cellular defense against oxidative damage

Kaneka Q30® Ubiquinol works by:

  • Supporting ATP production in mitochondria

  • Enhancing blood flow and heart muscle function

  • Acting as a potent antioxidant in high-energy organs like the brain and heart

  • Replenishing CoQ10 levels depleted by age or medications

| It’s not just about energy. It’s about helping men show up as their best, every single day. 

What the Research Says

Ubiquinol has been widely studied in aging, energy, and cardiovascular contexts. Key clinical findings include:

  • Improved energy and lower fatigue scores in older adults

  • Reduced oxidative stress biomarkers in statin users

  • Enhanced VO₂ max and peak power output in athletes

  • Protection against endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness

One randomized, placebo-controlled trial in men aged 45+ showed that Ubiquinol improved endothelial function, total antioxidant status, and CoQ10 blood levels within 6 weeks.

Kaneka Q30® specifically is the form used in dozens of peer-reviewed studies due to its stability and bioavailability.

Why It’s in Our Morning Formula

We include 100 mg of Kaneka Q30® Ubiquinol in the HUSBAND Morning Formula—the same dose shown to support cardiovascular function, energy metabolism, and mitochondrial health in older adults.

Combined with Urolithin A, SunTheanine®, and Testosurge®, it helps build a daily foundation of energy, endurance, and cellular strength—without overstimulation or crash.

What to Expect

Most men notice:

  • A gradual boost in physical and mental energy

  • Better cardiovascular stamina

  • Faster recovery from exertion

  • Less midday fatigue or brain fog
