Why brands use it
Why brands use CoQ10
CoQ10 is a formulation input reviewed per project, sitting in the other family. On DAT Supply briefs the positioning is set by the brand brief and reviewed against the target market’s claim rules — we do not pre-position an active for any single benefit. Editorial framing uses only applicable claims framework- or DSHEA-compatible wording — we never promote unauthorised claims, even when the active has consumer-side momentum. Format-wise we have considered CoQ10 for gummies; the per-format formulation notes below describe the live constraints (taste, payload, stability, packaging) we tune in the formulation pass. Sourcing form (extract ratio for botanicals, salt or chelate form for minerals, free-form vs ester for amino acids) is reviewed against the brief, with documentation matched to the target market’s import rules. Inclusion rate and claim wording are reviewed per project — we don’t publish off-the-shelf doses.

Claim wordingUS structure-function statements
Structure-function wording for this ingredient is reviewed per project against DSHEA (21 USC §343(r)(6)). No final on-pack copy is implied by this page.
CoQ10 is reviewed against the target market’s claim posture: applicable claims framework wording (UK tracks EU post-Brexit) for the EU/UK route, and DSHEA structure-function wording with the FDA disclosure for the US route. Pack copy is rewritten per market and confirmed per project.
US structure-function statements Structure-function statements must appear with the FDA disclaimer in the same field of vision on the label. % Daily Value (DV) based on FDA 21 CFR 101.9.

Reference level Typical anchor: mg per serving — confirmed per project.
CoQ10 is measured by weight (mg) per serving on DAT Supply briefs. The working anchor — the inclusion rate against which target-market claim wording is reviewed — is set during the formulation pass for each project rather than published as a fixed number on the public page. Final per-serving load depends on the chosen format (gummy payload window, capsule fill weight, softgel oil load, sachet or powder scoop size, oral-liquid bottle geometry) and the claim wording the brand needs to support against the target market. Sourcing form (extract ratio, standardised marker, micronised vs granular, salt or chelate form) is reviewed in the same pass. Country-level upper limits (France, Italy, Belgium for the EU; California Prop 65 for the US) are checked before any inclusion rate is finalised. Dose is confirmed per project — we don’t publish off-the-shelf dose tables for any active in the catalogue.
