Co-enzyme Q10 - 100 mg
Coenzyme Q10 is an indispensable substance for the body, essential for the conversion of food energy into bioenergy. This fat-soluble substance is found in the mitochondria (the energy factories) of every cell in the human body. Coenzyme Q10 can be found in foods such as meat (e.g. turkey), fish, grains and nuts. However, the amount of Q10 in our diet has decreased, making it often no longer sufficient.
Q10 is widely distributed in our body, which is why it is also called ubiquinone (derived from the Latin word for 'present everywhere'). Ubiquinone is the biologically active and endogenous form of Q10 and plays a crucial role in the energy production of every cell. CoQ10, the most active form of ubiquinone, is efficiently absorbed by the body.

L-Carnitine - 475 mg
L-Carnitine is often considered an amino acid because of its similar molecular structure. The body uses carnitine for fat burning and as an energy source for the heart muscle. Athletes and people who train intensively often need extra carnitine.
Men generally have a higher need for carnitine than women. L-carnitine is closely related to the B vitamins. The word 'carnitine' comes from the Latin 'carne', which means 'meat'. Carnitine occurs naturally in meat, while the amount of carnitine in plant foods is negligible. Although the body itself can produce carnitine from lysine and methionine, this production is often insufficient when the need is increased.

Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) - 3,000 IU - 75 mcg
Vitamin D is also produced by our skin, but for many this is not sufficient or does not work well. Vitamin D supplementation is a good solution for this. Vitamin D is important in various processes in the body. Vitamin D contributes to the immune system, muscles, bones, teeth, cell division process and production of new cells.
Vitamin D is one of the fat-soluble vitamins that are crucial for our body. It is mainly found in oily fish, such as herring, salmon and mackerel, but that is only part of the story - about 10%. Meat and eggs also contribute to our vitamin D intake, albeit in smaller amounts. In addition, our body has the ability to produce vitamin D itself under the influence of sunlight, especially UV radiation.
