"Ubiquinol is more effective and better absorbed." Evidence is mixed; in head-to-heads with optimized ubiquinone formulations, ubiquinone can match or exceed ubiquinol bioavailability. The review by Mantle & Dybring shows formulation (e.g., thermal crystal dispersion) can make ubiquinone more bioavailable than ubiquinol; many "ubiquinol wins" comparisons used non-optimized ubiquinone. Also, clinical efficacy data are stronger for ubiquinone in cardiovascular outcomes.
"If you're over 35–40, this is not very effective." There isn't strong clinical evidence that older adults cannot convert ubiquinone to ubiquinol. Studies in older men show both ubiquinone and ubiquinol supplementation raise plasma ubiquinol levels, with no statistically significant difference in some trials. Authoritative references also note ubiquinone is reduced to ubiquinol during/after absorption and constitutes ~95% of circulating CoQ10. A 2020 overview emphasizes conversion systems exist and challenges blanket claims that older people "need" ubiquinol.
Nuance you can use
Bioavailability varies widely by formulation; soft-gel capsules and technologies that disperse CoQ10 crystals or use appropriate lipids/encapsulation improve absorption regardless of form.
For specific scenarios (e.g., very high doses, certain malabsorption issues), some clinicians try ubiquinol; but for general use, especially for heart outcomes, ubiquinone has the stronger clinical trial track record.
Marketing from Kaneka/ubiquinol-branded sources asserts age-related conversion decline and superior absorption, but these are manufacturer claims and not definitive across independent trials. Independent reviews caution against these blanket assertions.
Bottom line for this Slickdeals product
Nature Made CoQ10 here is ubiquinone. It can still be effective, including in older adults, particularly if it's a good softgel formulation and taken with fat/food.
If you prefer ubiquinol or have tried ubiquinone without reaching target blood levels/symptom goals, switching to a reputable ubiquinol brand is reasonable—but it's not mandatory for everyone over 35–40, and the "not very effective" claim is not supported by robust evidence.

This. If you're over 35 your body will have a more difficult time converting this to ubiquinol. By the time you're 40 this is not very effective.

Can you give me a source for your quotes? My post was based on the word of my cardiologist over a decade ago, and for all I know, he was being influenced by material from Kaneka, who definitely has a reason to skew the facts! They're making a ton of money off of ubiquinol.
I will say that at the time my ubiquinol levels were not where he wanted them when I was taking Co-Q10 gels and Ubiquinol got them where he wanted them to be. I take a pretty high statin dose and it was driving my ubiquinol levels down to almost nothing.

For those taking statins, statins very often lower coq10 and cause muscle pain
so taking coq10 supplements is a good idea.
i'd like to try the ubiquinol but it's a lot more expensive.
(i also prefer to take vegetarian supplements and lots of them have bovine gelatin)
the cheapest brand that i found is dr fosters
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0DNYDR6VM
They are vegetarian and seem like a very good deal except for the fact
that they also have 45 mg of vitamin E. i'm pretty sure i get ample
vitamin E through diet and that i'd be better off not taking them in a supplement.
