The ubiquinol is also easily tolerated. You don't need high doses of this like with regular CoQ-10. So as far as side effects go you should not have any at 100mg a day.
If after a month or two you don't see any response from the ubiquinol, you can probably stop it. People taking statins or other drugs that deplete it need to supplement it.
(diuretics, antipsychotic tranquilizers, long term amitriptyline/nortriptyline, beta blockers, some of the oral antidiabetics)

Both will work together to help your mitochondria and also
the metabolism of essential fatty acids from your diet.

I'm not sure when to apply this rule. For example, I do not see any response to Vitamin C, yet I know tat the body requires it. So, I'm a bit puzzled.

Low Vit C and you may have more bleeding gums, mouth irritation, more frequent colds, bruising more easily. Aches and pains, arthritis joint issues.

But many nutrients are silent until you get low and symptoms
begin.

Magnesium= better sleep, less tension, less twitching,
better sugar metabolism/control, etc. You cannot feel your bones strengthen, until you don't and break one. A lot of mental improvements. We cannot however, feel repairs being done
on the cellular level, until many cells are broken.

Okay. But in the case of CoQ10/ubiquinol, we are nourishing the immune system, no? So, how do we gauge a response on that? Is it like "I got only one head cold this winter, so my CoQ10 must be helping my immune system"?
