What are the sources of Ubidecarenone?

Ubidecarenone is the only fat-soluble antioxidant that our body can produce. Ubidecarenone is present in all the cells of our body, and its production is controlled by the same pathway that controls cholesterol synthesis. Ubidecarenone is present in many animal protein sources, vegetables, fruits and cereals. Animal hearts and livers represent the richest sources.

What are the causes of Ubidecarenone deficiency?

Two major contributing factors to a Ubidecarenone deficiency are age and the use of statins: As we get older, our ability to naturally produce Ubidecarenone reduces. Statin drugs can inhibit the body's natural production of Ubidecarenone during use. Statins are drugs widely used to prevent and treat some heart diseases. Statins block cholesterol synthesis, which is a key step for Ubidecarenone biosynthesis, and therefore it has been linked to a reduction in Ubidecarenone levels in the body.

What are the major symptoms of Ubidecarenone deficiency?

Whilst everyone is different, people who have a deficiency in Ubidecarenone levels often experience physical fatigue and muscle weakness, even while undertaking relatively non-strenuous physical activities such as walking. Low Ubidecarenone levels can also cause mental fatigue, with symptoms including difficulty concentrating and memory lapses.

What are the key benefits of taking Ubidecarenone as a supplement?

Since our bodies can make Ubidecarenone, most don't need to top up the levels. However, as the levels decline with age, with the use of cholesterol-blocking drugs (like statins) or some diseases, some people might find Ubidecarenone supplementation beneficial.
