People on blood thinners (warfarin) should consult their healthcare practitioner; CoQ10 may slightly reduce warfarin effectiveness. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their practitioner. If you specifically want the active reduced form (better absorbed by some), look at ubiquinol products (like SISU Ubiquinol QH 100mg) — higher-priced but may be better for older adults whose conversion is impaired. If you're very price-sensitive, generic CoQ10 products cost less but SISU's quality control is consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamart's Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoQ10 is one of the better-researched cardiovascular nutrients, with decades of studies for heart health and energy. Your body makes its own CoQ10, but production drops starting in your 30s — by 80, you have roughly half what you had at 25. SISU's CoQ10 is the workhorse choice: ubiquinone (the most-researched form), 100mg per softgel (the clinical research dose), at one of the better per-softgel costs in Canada. If you're on a statin, this is one of the most important supplements to add — statins deplete CoQ10.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow SISU Co Q10 Compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSISU Co Q10 (Ubiquinone) vs SISU Ubiquinol QH\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUbiquinone is the oxidized form — most-researched, more accessible, body converts it to active ubiquinol.

This powerful antioxidant boosts energy, promotes optimum heart health, strengthens the arteries, combats gum disease, and slows the development of age-related diseases. It is very difficult to obtain enough Co Q10 from our diet because it is destroyed by heat (cooking food), and although the body manufactures a significant amount of Co Q10 when we are young, this production declines with age. Many people of middle age and older have Co Q10 deficiency and low levels of Co Q10 are associated with an increased risk for a number of age-related diseases. Co Q10 is found in some foods including beef, peanuts, and sardines but a daily Co Q10 supplement is a wise precautionary measure, particularly for those with a family history of conditions including heart disease, diabetes, high cholesterol, or high blood pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\r\n\tSISU Co Q10 60mg Product Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tCo Q10 is a powerful antioxidant that supports energy production, muscle and heart strength\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tHelps improve the heart’s ability to cope with oxidative stress and diminish shortness of breath\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tNaturally sourced from sugar beet\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tCo Q10 is naturally fat-soluble and dry supplements (in vegetarian capsules) should be taken with food containing some fat to maximize absorption\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\r\n\tSISU Co Q10 60mg Advantages\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tUbiquinone is the best researched form of Co Q10 and the only form backed by numerous human studies over many decades\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tSISU Co Q10 is available in three potencies, 30, 60 and 100 mg in both soft gelatin capsules and vegetarian capsules suitable for vegans\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tAlso available in SISU Co Q10 Extra with additional vitamin E and flax seed oil, a vegetable source of omega 3\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tGood Manufacturing Practices standards\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tTested for guaranteed purity and potency\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tNPN approved\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n","brand":"SISU","offers":[{"title":"120 Softgels","offer_id":42621898358955,"sku":null,"price":19.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/4126\/8139\/products\/SISU-Co-Q10-60mg-120-Softgels_b9d9f30f-501b-4ece-845b-ebe33c7e1210.jpg?v=1710964328"},{"product_id":"prairie-naturals-coq10-100mg","title":"Prairie Naturals CoEnzyme Q10 100mg, 140 Softgels BONUS SIZE","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\r\n\tPrairie Naturals CoQ10 100 mg Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tSupports heart health\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\t100mg dose\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tAnti-aging benefits\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tEnergy booster\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\tMay help those who suffer from migraines\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tNow in easy to swallow and readily absorbable softgels in a base of pure olive oil and rice bran oil. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) provides superior antioxidant protection. It is an integral part of the energy-producing center of the cell (mitochondria). Researchers have found that CoQ10 plays an important role in health and metabolism. It boosts energy, enhances the immune system, supports heart health, controls cholesterol levels, and reduces the risk of diabetes, and periodontal disease.  Supplementation may be especially useful for individuals on certain medications including stations and beta-blockers.  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003ePrairie Naturals CoQ10\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tCoenzyme Q10 is one of the ten types of coenzyme Q that are found in nature, but the only one that is used by humans. While it is a very important fat-soluble antioxidant, it’s most beneficial for enhancing heart health and circulation. This is because CoQ10 helps the heart use oxygen and energy effectively, which is crucial; for as a muscle (and obviously the most important one in the body; CoQ10 optimizes the heart’s ability to pump blood effectively. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eIncreased Need for CoQ10 Prairie Naturals CoQ10\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tOur bodies actually product CoQ10, but as we age – especially after the age 40 – its production begins to decline to such a level that by the time we are in our sixties our CoQ10 levels are only about 10% of what they were when we were in our thirties. Supplementing with a good quality coenzyme Q10 can help to replenish this shortfall and produce significant benefits for our health, at a time in people’s lives when they can need it most. Some studies have shown that as many as 75% of people are deficient in coenzyme Q10.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tHowever, aging is not the only reason people can need to take a CoQ10 supplement. Exposure to toxins and pollutants result in severe oxidative stress from free radicals which deplete coenzyme Q10 and create a great need for more. Illnesses that put stress on the immune system will also deplete your coenzyme Q10 resources as it enhances tissue oxygenation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eTypes of CoQ10: Ubiquinone vs. Ubiquinol\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThere are two main supplemental forms of CoQ10 that you will find in health food stores. The original form, ubiquinone is the industry standard and has been thoroughly studied for years; the latest, and more active form of CoQ10 is ubiquinol, which is the biologically active form used best by the body. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003ePrairie Naturals CoQ10 and Energy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tWhen people take ubiquinone or ubiquinol CoQ10 they will usually notice a substantial increase in energy, both mental and physical. As you read above, Coenzyme Q10 is needed by every muscle in the body. Muscles use a type of energy called ATP; it’s what each individual muscle cell uses to perform the contractions that result in any type of movement, whether its simply the diaphragm making the lungs inhale, or whether it’s running a marathon. CoQ10 is needed to make ATP; without enough, the muscles will fatigue sooner and to a greater degree. Many athletes take CoQ10 supplements, especially the ubiquinol form, to enhance their ATP production. Naturopathic doctors often recommend their patients with Fibromyalgia, (who have chronic muscle weakness) take CoQ10 for this same reason. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-Aging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tIt has anti-aging properties because as an antioxidant it protects the body against environmental pollutants other substances that and lead to aging. The free radical theory of aging is generally accepted as one of the major external causes of the aging process. With CoQ10’s ability to stabilize free radicals, it can make a dramatic difference in reducing the DNA damage free radicals cause that can lead to the premature aging of tissues and the individual cells of which they are made. In addition, Coenzyme Q10 helps to improve circulation, which improves the flow of nutrients and oxygen to tissues, thus keeping them healthier longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003ePrairie Naturals CoQ10 and Prescription Medications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tCoenzyme Q10 may decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.

They work by competing with cholesterol for absorption in the gut: plant sterols block some dietary cholesterol from being absorbed, plus block reabsorption of cholesterol the liver excretes through bile. Most fortified margarines now contain added plant sterols for this exact reason. New Roots delivers therapeutic potency in a softgel — better than trace amounts from fortified foods. The added annatto seed extract brings tocotrienol antioxidant value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow New Roots Sterols \u0026amp; Sterolins Compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSterols \u0026amp; Sterolins vs Red Yeast Rice\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed yeast rice contains compounds chemically similar to statin medications and works through a different pathway (inhibiting cholesterol production in the liver). It can lower LDL substantially but has the same potential side effects as statins (muscle pain, liver concerns). Plant sterols work by blocking absorption, with a different and gentler side-effect profile. Some practitioners use both together for layered support; others choose based on individual situation.

Inadvertently, when the pancreas gland produces too much insulin, there are inadequate amounts of blood sugar, resulting in symptoms of fatigue, weight gain, and poor adrenal function.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tHigh Blood Sugar (also known as Hyperglycaemia or Diabetes Mellitus)\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThis condition occurs when your blood is abnormally high in levels of glucose (sugar). Diabetes is caused by insufficient secretion of insulin by the pancreas. This is imperative because the utilization of glucose is regulated by insulin. Consequently, when the pancreas does not secrete enough insulin, there is too much blood sugar, resulting in symptoms of abnormal thirst, hunger, weakness, fatigue and frequent urination.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tBoth conditions can create serious health problems. Balancing your blood sugar is necessary to live a long healthy life. Blood Sugar Balance is a natural solution to regulating your blood sugar levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003e\r\n\tNew Roots Blood Sugar Balance contains the following synergistic herbs, micronutrients and nutraceuticals work together to effectively maintain optimal blood sugar levels.\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tVanadyl Sulphate\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tStudies in animals with and without diabetes suggest that vanadium may have an insulin-like effect, reducing blood sugar levels. Based on these findings, preliminary studies involving humans have been conducted, with mostly promising results. However, no meaningful double blind placebo-controlled studies on vanadium, as a sole treatment for diabetes, have yet been reported.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tVanadyl sulphate is a mineral that is named after the Scandinavian goddess of beauty, youth, and lustre. Taking vanadium will not make you beautiful, youthful, and lustrous, but evidence from animal studies suggests it may be an essential micronutrient. That is, your body may need it, but in very low doses. Based on promising animal studies, high doses of vanadium have been tested as an aid to controlling blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Like chromium, another trace mineral used for diabetics, vanadium has also been recommended as an aid in bodybuilding.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tChromium Polynicotinate\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tIt is a simple mineral the body needs in very small amounts, yet chromium plays a significant role in human nutrition. Chromium's most important function in the body is to help regulate the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood. Insulin plays a starring role in this fundamental biological process, by regulating the movement of glucose out of the blood and into cells. Scientists believe that insulin uses chromium as an assistant (technically, a cofactor) to \"unlock the door\" to the cell membrane, thus allowing glucose to enter the cell. In the past, it was believed that, to accomplish this, the body first converted chromium into a large chemical called glucose tolerance factor (GTF).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tCinnamon Extract 10%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tHighly preliminary evidence also suggests that cinnamon might have potential benefits for allergies and diabetes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tFenugreek 50%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tPresent interest in fenugreek focuses on its potential benefits for people with diabetes or high cholesterol. Numerous studies and preliminary trials in humans have found that fenugreek can reduce blood sugar and serum cholesterol levels in people with diabetes. Significantly, fenugreek can improve some measures of blood sugar control and insulin response as compared to a placebo. Triglyceride levels decreased and HDL (\"good\") cholesterol levels increased, presumably due to the enhanced insulin sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tGarlic 10,000 allicin\/gm\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tPreliminary evidence shows that garlic may help prevent atherosclerosis, the most common cause of heart attacks and strokes. Garlic preparations have been found to slow hardening of the arteries in animals, reducing the size of plaque deposits by nearly 50%.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tGymnema sylvestre 25%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tAlso called gurmar, it has a coincidental double relationship to sugar. When placed on the tongue, it blocks the sensation of sweetness, and when taken internally, it can help control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tBitter Melon 5%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tBitter Melon is used therapeutically in Asia, Africa and India to treat the symptoms of diabetes especially late onset Diabetes Mellitus. It contains an insulin-like molecule known as plant insulin. This plant insulin resembles synthetic insulin in its structure and is used to regulate blood sugar levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tBillberry Extract 25%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tA double blind, placebo-controlled trial of bilberry extract in 14 people with diabetic retinopathy or hypertensive retinopathy (damage to the retina caused by diabetes or hypertension, respectively) found significant improvements in the treated group.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tDragons Blood 5%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tSourced from the Kino of the European pharmacopoeias. The gum-resin looks like dried blood (Dragon's blood), much used in Indian medicine. This herb has a long history of use in India as a treatment for diabetes. The flavonoid, epicatechin, extracted from the bark of this plant has been shown to prevent alloxan-induced beta cell damage in rats. Both epicatechin and a crude alcohol extract of Pterocarpus marsupium have actually been shown to regenerate functional pancreatic beta cells. No other drug or natural agent has been shown to generate this activity.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tBhuiamla 5%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tBhuiamla has been used in traditional medicine for over 2000 years for diabetes. Bhuiamla has been used to correct and restore liver functions, which are essential for glucose metabolism. It activates the liver for effective glucose utilization, thus helping maintain blood sugar levels. It stimulates the liver for process of glycogenesis (formation of glycogen from food), thereby helping regulate blood sugar levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tHoly Basil 10%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tPharmacological studies demonstrate that Basil seeds contain several bioflavonoidal \u0026amp; terpene principals which exert potent anti-stress, immuno-modulator as well as liver activating actions. This is highly beneficial for diabetics in regulating metabolism and relieving stress in stress induced diabetes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tIndian Gooseberry 20%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tIn traditional medical systems, this herb is known to strengthen and improve the functioning of the pancreas in diabetics. It reduces the negative effects of free radicals, which are responsible for the damage to the insulin producing b-cells of the pancreas. Indian Gooseberry possesses significant immunomodulatory activity and also has established anti-oxidant properties. It is significantly important for the management of one of the serious complications of diabetes, namely hyperlipidaemia.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tTinospora 10%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tTinospora exerts an anti-hyperglycaemic \u0026amp; cholesterol regulating action. Treatment with Tinospora shows an improvement in glucose tolerance and an increase in plasma insulin levels. It also possesses immunomodulatory and anti-stress effects. Tinospora has been reported to stimulate the liver for the process of glycogenesis (formation of glycogen from food), thereby helping to regulate blood sugar levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tBanaba 1%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tBanaba (Lagerstroemia speciosa), long used in the Philippines as diabetes herbal medicine, is now gaining momentum and widespread acceptance, even in the western medical circles. Medical research and clinical trials performed on this miraculous herb not only in the Philippines but in other countries as well, have proven the age-old Filipino wisdom. Banaba possesses the powerful compound corosolic acid that lends itself to the treatment of diabetes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tGinkgo Biloba 24% 6%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tGinkgo biloba extract may prove useful for prevention and treatment of early-stage diabetic neuropathy. Ginkgo may protect nerve damage resulting from poor circulation to the extremities that is common in diabetes sufferers. Other studies have shown that ginkgo may also help prevent diabetic retinopathy, an eye disease that can cause blindness.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tGinger Root 5%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tFull Spectrum Gingerols is derived from the tuberous rhizome (underground root) of the perennial plant Zingiber officinale. Ginger contains moderate amounts of protein, calcium, phosphorous, iron, sodium, potassium, and magnesium associated with the aid in digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tQuercetin\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tQuercetin blocks an enzyme that leads to accumulation of sorbitol, which has been linked to nerve, eye, and kidney damage in those with diabetes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tDandelion 3%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tDandelion and inulin have demonstrated experimental hypoglycaemic activity. This may be due to the fact that inulin is composed of fructose chains which may act to buffer blood glucose levels, thus preventing sudden and severe fluctuations. Dandelion may intensify the blood sugar-lowering effect of the diabetes drug, glipizide. It contains inulin, a natural fructose that helps diabetics lower their blood sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tGrapeseed Extract 95%\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tProanthocyanidins concentrate in the linings of microscopic blood vessels in the eye. Cellular debris and inflammation easily blocks these delicate blood conduits and sensitive to injury from diabetes. As long as the right level of permeability is maintained, however, no damage occurs to the retina.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tAlpha Lipoic Acid\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tAlpha-lipoic acid is used to counter nerve damage in people with diabetes (types I and II). Known as diabetic neuropathy, this painful condition tends to develop in people who have uncontrolled diabetes for a period of time. This neuropathy is usually caused in part by free-radical damage to nerves resulting from unregulated blood sugar balance (glucose). Because of its antioxidant properties, alpha-lipoic acid can help to block such damage. In addition, its effect on glucose metabolism improves the glucose-lowering action of insulin (a hormone that regulates blood sugar). \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"New Roots","offers":[{"title":"60 Capsules","offer_id":42621977395371,"sku":"1088-DiscoVitamart","price":56.19,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"120 Capsules","offer_id":42621977428139,"sku":"1086-DiscoVitamart","price":105.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/4126\/8139\/files\/1088-new-roots-herbal-blood-sugar-balance-60-vegetable-capsules-min.jpg?v=1718294398"},{"product_id":"kyolic-phytosterols","title":"Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract with Phytosterols, Lowers Cholesterol, 30 Vegetable Caplets","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\r\n\tKyolic Aged Garlic Extract with Phytosterols Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tKyolic Phytosterols™ begins with 100% organically† grown garlic bulbs.

This leads to a decrease in the flexibility and elasticity of the walls. Deposits can be made of calcium (arteriosclerosis) or fatty substances like cholesterol (atherosclerosis). Decreased circulation leads to high blood pressure as the body struggles to maintain enough blood flow to its tissues. Pieces of the deposits can break off or the turbulent flow of blood can cause clots to form. If the pieces or clots lodge in smaller vessels this leads to heart attack or stroke. Heart attack occurs when the vessels to the heart become blocked, or sufficiently constricted, to reduce blood flow to an area of the heart muscle. The muscle begins to die which leads to permanent heart damage. The cause of the constriction can be an atherosclerotic plaque, a piece of tissue, an air bubble or a blood clot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHeart Health\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cardiovascular system consists of the heart and approximately 60 thousand miles of blood vessels, called arteries and veins.
