The oil based forms are not well absorbed, so at least 300mg a day. This type is commonly in stores.
There is a new water soluble type, Q-gel, etc, which is better absorbed. 100mg a day of that is probably enough. example: http://www.epic4health.com/noname.html Costco just started carrying Qunol, ubiquinol, at quite a savings. I am trialing it now, to see how it works. I am so far 30 caps into a 120 ct bottle, once a day. 100mg each. You have to read labels to see what you are really getting. Puritan's buy 1 get 2 free is still going. See what they have there too.

If you use the newer water soluble brands, you don't need 300mg a day.
So please read your labels.
