Does High-fiber foods Affect Ubiquinol?
May affect absorption or how you feel
The short answer
Ubiquinol is the reduced, fat-soluble form of CoQ10. High-fiber meals impair fat absorption and significantly reduce ubiquinol uptake.
How to arrange timing
Take ubiquinol with a fat-containing meal, separated from high-fiber foods by 2 hours.
