MitoQ® Brain - Mitoquinol Mesylate

MitoQ is a revolutionary CoQ10 supplement with the patented Mitoquinol Mesylate as the main ingredient. Mitoquinol Mesylate was developed by MitoQ® based on years of research and is a shortened and positively charged version of coenzyme Q10. In this product this substance is combined with: ginkgo, to protect against free radicals* and to support the nervous system*; Sharp-PS® (phosphatidylserine); the patented Kanna extract Zembrin®; and huperzia serrata (Chinese club moss), which is beneficial for mental balance*.

Benefits:

• MitoQ® Brain is optimally developed according to the latest scientific developments
• Contains the patented Mitoquinol Mesylate, a revolutionary variant of coenzyme Q10
• Ginkgo (biloba) protects against free radicals*, supports the nervous system* and supports proper blood circulation throughout the body, but especially in the brain*
• Huperzia serrata is beneficial for mental balance*
• MitoQ® has been conducting research on CoQ10 for the composition of its products for many years
• MitoQ® Brain does not need to be taken during meals

What is Coenzyme Q10?

Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance naturally in occurring all of our cells. The letter 'Q' stands for 'ubiquitous'. The term is apt, as Q10 really is everywhere: from our hair to our toenails. The substance was first discovered in 1957 by Dr. Frederick Crane , who isolated it from bovine heart mitochondria. Organs and tissues that consume a lot of energy, such as the heart, pancreas, liver, kidneys, immune system, nervous system and muscles, have a higher coenzyme Q10 content. A good source of Q10 is organ meats, especially liver, kidneys and thymus. Whole grain cereals, poultry, peanuts, tree nuts, spinach, broccoli, and fatty fish also contain small amounts of this coenzyme.

About Mitoquinol Mesylate

The unique component of MitoQ® is the acclaimed Mitoquinol Mesylate: a shortened and positively charged version of CoQ10. This Q10 variant is the result of the addition of a fat-soluble (lipophilic) cation - tetraphenylphosphonium - to the molecular structure of CoQ10. This renders the product unique: the coupling of CoQ10 with a positively charged ion allows it to cross cell membranes. This is a patented technique that combines the reduced, active form of Coq10, called ubiquinol, with the tetraphenylphosphonium group. The result is now known worldwide as MitoQ, the brand name of Mitoquinol Mesylate.

Patented Zembrin® extract

In 2009, the South African company HG&H Pharmaceuticals Ltd was the first worldwide to obtain a license for marketing and exporting the standardized extract of Sceletium tortuosum. The development of this specific extract, under the brand name Zembrin®, took over a decade involving a team of international scientists and doctors. It has GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status in the U.S., meaning it has been found safe.

About MitoQ®

MitoQ® is a New Zealand-based company dedicated to the development and introduction of MitoQ®. MitoQ's mission and vision are aptly summed up in the following quote from the ancient Greek philosopher Herophilus: “When health is absent, wisdom and art cannot manifest, strength cannot land, wealth becomes useless, and intelligence cannot be applied." The secret and success of MitoQ lie in the way in which the ordinary CoQ10 enzyme has been adapted and optimally developed according to the latest scientific insights. Over a decade of research has been conducted into this third generation of CoQ10. MitoQ, or mitoquinol, was discovered by scientists while looking for substances that affect mitochondria. MitoQ is a proprietary molecule: you cannot get it anywhere other than through MitoQ® Limited. The small but very passionate team focuses on informing customers and professionals. Working from New Zealand MitoQ® is active all over the world.
