(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110110/LA27593LOGO) In a recent study, ConsumerLab.com determined that USANA's CoQuinone(R) 30 was found to contain its labeled amount of CoQ10. This study evaluated coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and ubiquinol products from various nutritional supplement manufacturers to determine whether they in fact contained the amounts of these compounds stated on their labels. The review can be found on the company's website at http://www.consumerlab.com/.  In light of new FDA warnings against potentially unsafe supplements available on the market, studies like this help consumers and healthcare professionals make better decisions and more informed recommendations when it comes to supplements.
