By the way, if you saw this supportive CoQ10 result and wanted to start supplementing it, make sure you pick the right form.
Conversion efficiency declines with age, so the more consistently bioavailable form is the reduced one—ubiquinol—rather than the oxidized ubiquinone.

Added CoQ10 to my supplement stack a few weeks ago
Felt like it was irritating my throat
Had a convo with AI about it, realized I was taking ubiquinone
Switched to ubiquinol (more bioavailable version)
Now I have no issues
Ubiquinone requires conversion in the body
Ubiquinol is the active form

Ubiquinone requires conversion in the body. Ubiquinol is the active form your cells actually use. For some people the conversion step creates the problem (MTHFR for me)
