What is the difference between Ubiquinol (CoQnol) and regular CoQ10?

Ubiquinol is the 'active' form of CoQ10. Traditional CoQ10 (ubiquinone) must be converted by the body into ubiquinol before it can work. CoQnol provides the pre-converted form, which is more easily absorbed and utilized, especially for older adults or those with metabolic concerns.
