OptiChoice CoQ10 plus Omega-3-Review
Product Claims of OptiChoice CoQ10 plus Omega-3
Today we review OptiChoice CoQ10 plus Omega-3. By combining natural Coenzyme Q10 with both Omega-3 EPA and DHA, this supplement helps to support your heart health while increasing your energy and stamina. Formulated into oil filled softgels, this supplement claims to be absorbed fast into your body.
Ingredients
- Vitamin E
- OmegaChoice Purified Fish Oil
- EPA
- DHA
- Total Omega-3 Fatty Acids
- Natural Coenzyme Q10
Typical CoQ10 supplements work best when pure, without so many added ingredients. The only ingredient that should be added to a supplement like this is BioPerine, which will help your body absorb this type of nutrient. Additionally, each capsule only contains 100 mg of CoQ10. The clinically recommended dose for this nutrient is 250 mg per day. Without enough CoQ10, this supplement may not work as well as described.
Dosage Instructions
The nutrition label on these bottles says a serving size of this supplement is 2 capsules, but the dosing instructions state you can take 2 or more softgels per day. Without a definitive amount, it can be confusing to know exactly how many supplements your body needs to stay healthy. Even with 2 softgels, you will not reach the needed 250 mg of CoQ10 per day, and with 3 capsules, you will exceed this amount. As these are formulated into softgels, you cannot split them into half to ensure you take the clinically recommended dose of this nutrient.
Cost and Guarantee
Each bottle contains 60 capsules, which is enough for 30 servings. List price per bottle is $39.95. Unfortunately, it is difficult to understand whether or not the manufacturer actually has these bottles in stock, as one place on this product’s page, they state this supplement is in stock, but in another place on the same page, it is stated they are sold out. If this product is available for purchase, the manufacturer does offer discounts for large purchases. Making a purchase over $99 will get you 10% off of your order as well as free shipping. Orders over $149 get 15% off and orders over $199 get you 20% off, both of these also with free shipping.
This manufacturer does offer a full year long guarantee. If, for any reason, during the first year after your purchase you find yourself unsatisfied, you can contact their customer service to process a refund. Unfortunately, it states that they will refund you for any unused portion of your product. We are unsure, however, if that means you can return opened bottles and they will refund you per unused capsule, or if you can only return unopened, unused bottles.
Summary Of Our OptiChoice CoQ10 plus Omega-3 Review
There are a few things we liked about OptiChoice CoQ10 plus Omega-3. These capsules are formulated into softgels for easy absorption. Also, the manufacturer’s guarantee is good for an entire year.
Unfortunately, we have many concerns in regards to this product. These softgels are not pure CoQ10, and they do not have BioPerine to help your body absorb this nutrient. They also do not contain enough CoQ10 to meet clinical recommendations. Next, the dosing instructions are not entirely clear, as they do not state exactly how many capsules to take per day. Lastly, the guarantee is worded in a way that it seems you will not be able to get a full refund for your money, but instead only for the softgels you did not use. For these reasons, we cannot recommend this supplement to help improve your heart health.
