Supports cellular energy and mitochondrial healthCoQ10 is a component of the mitochondria and plays a key role in the synthesis of ATP. Ubiquinol is the activated form of CoQ10. B vitamins are important cofactors needed to fuel the Krebs cycle, while optimal serum levels of magnesium are associated with healthy mitochondrial metabolism and nutrient transport. Acetyl-l-carnitine provides carnitine to transport long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for energy as well as an acetyl group for the synthesis of the Krebs cycle precursor acetyl-CoA. Highly pure creatine monohydrate helps enhance the production of the ATP by acting as a precursor. This formula provides antioxidant support from vitamins C and E, as well as additional antioxidant support from grape seed extract, resveratrol, alpha lipoic acid, and n-acetyl-l-cysteine. These nutrients and bioactive neutralize the free radicals generated during energy production in the mitochondria. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study, the combination of creatine, CoQ10, and alpha lipoic acid supported energy production and antioxidant status within the mitochondria.• Supports healthy muscle function, cellular energy, and healthy aging• Made with hypoallergenic ingredientsMitochondria-ATP provides nutrients and antioxidants to support ATP production, which promotes energy generation and mitochondrial metabolic health for the efficient transport of energy within cells.Dietary ConsiderationsGluten FreeNon-GMOServing Size: 2 Vegetable CapsuleServings Per Container: 60Amount Per Serving % Daily ValueVitamin C (as ascorbic acid) 100 mg 111%Vitamin E (as d-alpha tocopherol succinate) 17 mg 112%Thiamin (as thiamin HCl) (B1) 10 mg 833%Riboflavin (vitamin B2) 7.5 mg 577%Niacin (as niacinamide) 17.5 mg 109%Magnesium (as magnesium citrate/malate) 50 mg 12%Kre-Alkalyn (pH balanced creatine monohydrate) 375 mg Acetyl-L-Carnitine (free-form) 250 mgTrans-resveratrol (from Japanese knotweed (Polygonum cuspidatum) extract (root)) 25 mgGrape (Vitis vinifera l.) extract (seed) (standardized to contain 92% polyphenols) 50 mgN-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (free-form) 50 mgAlpha lipoic acid (thioctic acid) 50 mgKaneka Ubiquinol (active antioxidant form of coenzyme Q10) 25 mgOther Ingredients:vegetarian capsule (cellulose, water)As a dietary supplement, take 2 capsules, 2 times daily, with meals.If you are pregnant or lactating, have any health condition or are taking any medication, consult your health professional before use.Keep out of the reach of children.Use only if safety seal is intact.

Lifestyle choices such as smoking and drinking alcohol, physical activities, as well as some foods can produce free radicals in the body. Free radicals are known to weaken and damage the cells in the body. When the cells become weakened, a person is more susceptible to various health conditions, including cardiovascular disease, stroke, and certain types of cancer, such as liver cancer, esophageal cancer, lung cancer and prostate cancer. Antioxidants act as cell protectors. The best antioxidant foods work by scavenging free radicals, thereby reducing oxidative stress and damage to all our cells. Some examples of antioxidants are vitamins C, vitamin E, vitamin A, selenium, flavonoids, carotenoids, and ubiquinone, otherwise known as coenzyme Q10 . Additionally, studies have shown a decreased risk of leukemia and lymphomas in patients who take daily antioxidant supplements.
Antioxidants help reduce the risk of liver damage, malnutrition, respiratory issues, neurological problems and cardiovascular issues, by preventing cellular damage caused by free radicals. The body requires antioxidants to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Antioxidant supplements offer an easy and affordable way to get the nutrients your body requires to stay healthy. Antioxidants can either be man-made or all-natural. Antioxidants, including beta-carotene, vitamin A, lutein, vitamin C, lycopene, vitamin E and selenium, promote health and healing, while increasing vigor.
Antioxidants are believed to be helpful in treating and preventing heart disease, stroke, and a number of conditions associated with normal aging, including wrinkles! Antioxidants such as lutein, lycopene, vitamin B2, coenyzme Q10, and cysteine can be consumed using oral supplements. In addition, certain herbs, including grape seed, bilberry, turmeric, ginkgo, milk thistle and green tea also have antioxidant compounds.
The best antioxidant supplements include carotenoids, vitamin E, CoQ-10 and vitamin C. Carotenoids such as beta-carotene protects against prostate cancer; while lycopene protects the body from cancers of the colon, esophagus and mouth. Carotenoids are found in red, yellow and dark leafy vegetables. Vitamin E promotes health and protects against cardiovascular diseases and cataracts. Vitamin E is found in nuts, seeds and whole grain products. CoQ10 increases the immune system and protects against various health conditions. Vitamin C helps prevent infection, helps the body produce collagen and strengthens the body's blood vessels. Vitamin C is found in citrus fruits, potatoes, berries and peppers. By choosing an antioxidant supplement containing the aforementioned vitamins, amino acids and minerals will prevent cellular damage and oxidative stress throughout the body.
