Common questions
TAKING MITOQ
When should I take MitoQ?
We recommend that you take MitoQ in the morning on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes before your first meal of the day. You can take MitoQ 2 hours after eating. MitoQ is water-soluble, so it doesn't need to be taken with food or oils to assist with absorption.
Why do I need to take MitoQ on an empty stomach and why before breakfast?
We recommend taking it in the morning because studies have shown that, if you take it with food, it reduces the absorption into your body. When you wake up, your stomach is at its most empty – so that’s a great time to take it.
MitoQ helps give you energy – so you may as well make the most of that first thing in the morning when you're up, awake and doing things.
Does MitoQ interact with any medicines?
MitoQ has been extensively tested for safety but not for interactions with prescription medicines. Please consult your physician.
Can I take MitoQ with other supplements?
MitoQ can be taken in combination with your other supplements. Some of our products do have vitamins and minerals in them, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on your intake levels of those so that they stay within the recommended range.
Can I take a dose that’s higher than you recommend?
MitoQ's recommended dose is 10mg per day. However, studies have shown MitoQ to be safe well beyond the recommended dose.
Are there any side effects?
At doses higher than 80mg per day, a small number of people have reported experiencing a mild upset stomach and nausea.
