Coenzyme Q10-H active

An energy boost for the over-45s
Coenzyme Q10 is one of the bodily substances that is produced to a lesser degree, the older we become. A supplement with the active, immediately available form of this energy supplier is the obvious solution. In that case, Plantina Coenzyme Q10-H active is the preferred choice as compared with the ‘standard’ coenzyme Q10, as contained in the supplements Plantina Coenzyme Q10 and Plantina Coenzyme Q10 forte.

Coenzyme Q10-H active

Supports the heart as it ages
Coenzyme Q10-H active is not only the ideal food supplement for the elderly as an energy boost but is also a powerful antioxidant. This substance therefore protects against harmful free radicals. The effect is dual.
As we get older, muscle function deteriorates. This also applies for the heart, which of course is a muscle. That makes Plantina Coenzyme Q10-H active a valuable food supplement for the older person.
 
To deliver a top performance
Also for active sportsmen and women, and certainly elite athletes, it is worthwhile considering taking the active form of coenzyme Q10, to gain access immediately to the active form, alongside taking Plantina Coenzyme forte. A possible suggestion is to combine Plantina Coenzyme Q10-H active with Plantina Coenzyme Q10 forte.
