Combination Effect of Alpha lipoic acid - CD complex and CoQ10 - CD complex on Stamina Enhancement

Swimming endurance test of mice

The test sample was dissolved in water (1mL) and administered to mice orally via a stomach tube.
Swimming test was carried out twice a week, and mice were administered once a day.

Results of swimming endurance test of mice

• Swimming time was not enhanced by continuous administration of ALA for 21 days, but CoQ10.
• Swimming time enhancement effect was found just after 4 days by administration of CoQ10 CD complex.
• Swimming time was prolonged more than CoQ10 alone by combined administration of ALA and CoQ10.
• The longest swimming time was observed by combined administration of ALA CD complex and CoQ10 CD complex.
