I tried to dissolve my Qunol CoQ10 softgel in water but it did not dissolve. Why?Updated 3 months ago

The water-solubility of Qunol CoQ10 refers to the contents inside the softgel, not the softgel capsule itself. The capsule is designed to pass through the stomach and dissolve in the intestines, where the contents are released.

To test the water-solubility of the contents:

  1. Fill a clear glass with 8 oz of warm water and 2 teaspoons of white vinegar
  2. Puncture a Qunol CoQ10 softgel or cut off the top with scissors
  3. Pour the contents into the glass of water and stir
  4. The contents should dissolve in the water

You can compare this with other CoQ10 brands—since Qunol is water-soluble, you'll notice other brands may form clumps and not dissolve.
