  Hey ,

  The 2 main forms of CoQ10 are Ubiquinol and Ubiquinone. I usually recommend the Ubiquinol form. As we age, we lose the ability to convert sufficient Ubiquinone into Ubiquinol (which is the active, reduced form).

  The amount depends on what you like to use it for. Since our ability to from Ubiquinol reduces with age, I usually recommend my clients 100mg per day without any other health conditions.

  Statins and Beta Blockers are known to deplete CoQ10. When clients use statins I usually recommend them to start using 2x 100 mg CoQ10 per day and increase to 2x 200 mg per day if there is evidence of statin-induced myopathy.

  Some people use CoQ10 to reduce migraines. I usually recommend to start between the 100 – 150  mg 2x daily. Typical in combination with magnesium and riboflavin.

  May I ask what you like to use it for?
