Wacker Chemie AG Brand

Products:1
WACKER’s CAVAQ10® is a highly bioavailable coenzyme Q10 powder. This fat-soluble, vitamin-like substance is a known antioxidant. Coenzyme Q10 has been associated with improved cardiovascular health and supporting optimum fuctioning of the cardiac muscle. However, many commercial products do not offer adequate bioavailability. WACKER’s cyclodextrin-encapsulated CAVAQ10® powder, by contrast, has an 18-fold higher bioavailability compared to other CoQ10 products.

Benefits of CAVAQ10®

Coenzyme Q10 can support performance during physical activity to enable a more efficient workout. Unfortunately, CoQ10 is fat-soluble and poorly absorbed by the body. With CAVAQ10®, WACKER offers a highly bioavailable version of CoQ10 by complexing it with gamma-cyclodextrin. Complexation with cyclodextrin not only enhances the stability of the sensitive substances, but also markedly improves absorption by the body.

Bioavailability of CAVAQ10® Is 18 Times Higher Than That of Conventional CoQ107

18-fold increase in bioavailability (as measured by AUC) for CAVAQ10® vs. negative control.

Advantages of CAVAQ10®
  • 18-fold increase in bioavailability
  • Min. coenzyme Q10 content: 20%
  • Contains fermentation-based CoQ10 (no synthetic CoQ10)
  • Free from allergens and additives
  • Easily dispersible in water
  • Various application forms possible
Supporting Heart Health

Improving Cardiovascular Health with CAVAQ10®

 

  • Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also known as ubiquinone, is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like substance. It is a popular antioxidant, which is held to have benefits for the cardiovascular system and to support the optimum functioning of the heart muscle.
  • CoQ10 biosynthesis decreases with and the consequent deficits in tissue are associated with degenerative changes appearing in the course of aging. CoQ10 supplementation can improve the efficiency of energy production in human heart tissue (Rosenfeldt et al., 2003).
  • Since CoQ10 is a fat-soluble substance, which is poorly absorbed, many commercial products do not contain it in a readily bioavailable form. With CAVAQ10®, WACKER offers a gamma-cyclodextrin complex, whose bioavailability is 18-fold that of conventional CoQ10 products.
  • This value was demonstrated in a human clinical study (Terao et. al., 2006) . It is a dry, free-flowing powder that is readily soluble in aqueous systems and is suitable for administration in various forms - from tablets to beverages.
