Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) disodium salt

PQQ is one of Herb Nutritionals Co., Ltd’s latest bulk raw material ingredients. PQQ is the abbreviation of pyrroloquinoline quinone. PQQ, a coenzyme of vitamin-like nutrient related to the B-vitamin family, has many other popular names, such as methoxatin, BioPQQ, PQQ disodium salt, methoxatin disodium salt, etc. On the supplement market, PQQ often exists in the form of disodium salt with unique CAS number 122628-50-6 while PQQ with CAS 72909-34-3. Our PQQ is the salt form, and the most popular PQQ brand BioPQQ is also in the disodium salt form. PQQ sodium salt can be supplied as tablets, capsules, granules, powders, and so on. If not specified, all information regarding PQQ is referred to PQQ disodium salt.

PQQ disodium Salt vs PQQ
As we mentioned above, PQQ on the supplement market exists in the form of PQQ disodium form. Are they the same or any differences? If you are new to this ingredient, you may ask such questions. Many other compounds have the similar situations.
For the forms of PQQ currently used in supplements, there is probably little difference between the variability of nutritional availability (or relative potency if you will). For example, the organic acid form of PQQ is quickly converted into a salt during the process of digestion (or merely dissolving PQQ into a complex mixture for that matter). The H+ (from the organic acid moieties of pyrroloquinoline quinone) can exchange freely with ionized cations, such as sodium, potassium, magnesium. Both the acid form and salt forms of PQQ, at the intestinal concentrations usually obtained following supplement use, are soluble and probably equally available (absorbable) by the intestine.

Benefits of taking PQQ supplements

PQQ was found to improve not only immediate memory, but also other higher brain functions such as spatial awareness. The effects of PQQ were enhanced when the substance was used with CoQ10. The key benfits of PQQ include mitochondrial health, brain support, and cardiovascular health.
Mitochondrial Healh
The mitochondria produces cellular energy which manages basic and complex metabolic processes. Without essential biochemicals, the mitochondria becomes worn down and the rate of cellular aging increases. This causes systemic stress, consuming large amounts of energy in an effort to stabilize the cellular process. A disrupted metabolism destabilizes cellular health, having a dramatic effect on organs such as the heart, brain, liver, and kidneys, as well as the nervous, endocrine, and digestive systems. This leads to poor health and accelerated aging.
Promotes Brain support.
Pyrroloquinoline quinone promotes healthy levels of nerve growth factor and supports synaptic and intracellular neuronal responses by maintaining healthy N-Methyl D-Aspartate(NMDA) receptor activity.
PQQ prompts CREB, a protein that regulates DNA function and gene expression. CREB stimulates new mitochondrial growth and plays an important role in the formation of neural pathways and long-term memory. This has made PQQ of special interest in Alzheimer’s disease research.
Supports Cardiovascular Health
pyrroloquinoline quinine provides antioxidant and mitochondrial support. Studies show that both PQQ and CoQ10 support heart muscle function and healthy cellular oxygen utilization.
Pyrroloquinoline quinone protects against oxidative stress through its rejuvenating effects.
