Brewed-CoQ10™ is our name for CoQ10 made the natural way: fermented from yeast, much like brewing, here in the USA. It gives you the same form of CoQ10 your body makes itself, with nothing synthetic, no oils and no animal ingredients. Every batch is third-party tested to confirm the full 200mg.

Just three ingredients: 200mg of CoQ10 (ubiquinone), rice flour and a plant-based capsule. That's it. No oils, no fillers, no Polysorbate 80. It's vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free and hormone-free.

Ubiquinone is the most researched form of CoQ10 and the one used in most clinical studies. It's very stable, and your body converts it into ubiquinol as it needs it.

Ubiquinol is the already-converted form. It costs more and is less stable, so it usually comes in oil softgels. Some people, particularly older adults, may absorb it a little more easily.

We chose ubiquinone because it's the form with the deepest research behind it and stays stable in a clean, dry capsule.

Whichever brand you choose, check the label for these five things:

• A meaningful dose, ideally 100mg to 200mg per serving
• Third-party testing, with a Certificate of Analysis available
• A short ingredient list with no Polysorbate 80 or fillers
• Clear information on where it's made
• No proprietary blends hiding the amounts

We built Origin8 to tick every one of those boxes.

We only sell directly, so every bottle comes straight from us. That means no third-party sellers, no risk of counterfeits and no bottles sitting in a hot warehouse for months. It also lets us offer our guarantee and subscription savings.

Most research uses between 100mg and 300mg a day. Our single 200mg capsule sits right in the middle of that range, so one capsule a day is all you need.

One 200mg capsule a day, taken with a meal. Don't take more than that unless your doctor has advised it.

Take it with breakfast or lunch. A meal with some healthy fat helps absorption, and taking it earlier in the day suits most people, as a small number find it can feel energising in the evening.

There's some truth in it. CoQ10 is a fat-soluble molecule, so it's absorbed best alongside fat, and taking it on an empty stomach means you get less from it.

That's why we recommend taking it with a meal, every day. A full 200mg dose also gives your body more to work with than the smaller doses in many products.

No. CoQ10 isn't habit-forming and it doesn't stop your body making its own. If you stop taking it, your levels simply drift back to where they were before.

Many people with diabetes take CoQ10. Some research suggests it may have a small effect on blood sugar levels, so if you take insulin or other diabetes medication, check with your doctor first and keep an eye on your readings when you start.

Yes, and it's one of the most common reasons people take CoQ10. Statins lower cholesterol by blocking a pathway your body also uses to make CoQ10, so your levels can drop while you're on them. Keep taking your statin as prescribed and let your doctor know you're adding CoQ10.

CoQ10 is well tolerated by most people, but it can interact with some medications, particularly blood thinners like warfarin, blood pressure medication and diabetes medication. If you take any prescription medicine, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.

Origin8 is made for adults aged 18 and over. It's not intended for children.

Yes. Every cell in every body uses CoQ10, and levels decline with age in both men and women. The same one-capsule dose suits both.

Not at all. Because your natural levels keep falling as you age, older adults often have the most to top up. Much of the research on CoQ10 has been done in people in their 50s, 60s and beyond.

Please speak to your doctor or midwife before taking any supplement while pregnant or breastfeeding.

Appointments are short and tend to focus on diagnosing and treating specific conditions, so supplements rarely come up unless you ask. CoQ10 also isn't a prescription drug, so it isn't promoted to doctors the way medicines are. Many doctors are familiar with it, especially for people on statins, so it's well worth raising at your next appointment.

Everyone's body is different, so we can't promise identical results for everyone. People whose levels are lower, through age, statins or high demands on their body, often notice the most. That's exactly why we give you 90 days to try it risk-free.

CoQ10 works by gradually rebuilding your levels. Some people notice a difference within 3 to 6 weeks, and the full benefits usually build over 8 to 12 weeks of daily use.

CoQ10 is very well tolerated. A small number of people notice mild stomach upset, which taking it with food usually prevents. If anything doesn't feel right, stop taking it and speak to your doctor.

Take Origin8 for up to 90 days. If you don't feel the difference, send us one email and we'll refund you. No forms and no awkward questions.

Your next bottle arrives automatically before you run out, at your subscriber price. You can skip, pause or cancel anytime from your account, with no commitment.
