Ubiquinone food sources

THE BEST FOOD SOURCES OF UBIQUINONE

The Fineli database does not list the ubiquinone levels of various food items. The ubiquinone levels of various food items presented below are based on several international studies and classifications. It is difficult to achieve a sufficient ubiquinone intake from food. For example, to get 100 mg of ubiquinone daily, one must consume approximately 600 grams of reindeer meat daily, which is hardly realistic. On the other hand, not everyone needs a ubiquinone supplement. Still, with advanced age especially, it is useful in ensuring optimal mitochondrial function.
