Physiological effects
- PQQ, or pyrroloquinoline quinone, is a water-soluble compound found from microbes in 1979. It can’t be produced by humans and although it is produced in small amounts by the gut microbes, it must be obtained predominantly from diet. Parsley, kiwi, green pepper, papaya and tofu are good sources of PQQ.
- PQQ supports mitochondrial function. Mitochondria are responsible for the cellular energy metabolism, or cellular respiration. PQQ affects cell growth, development, differentiation and life span. PQQ has an effect mainly to brain health, but also on the metabolism of the whole body.
- The active ingredient of Vitacell® PQQ, MGCPQQ®, is manufactured by the Japanese Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company. MGCPQQ® is a water soluble compound produced by fermentation of Hyphomicrobium denitrificans strain CK-275. MGCPQQ® has received Novel Food status in the EU on 10.8.2018. It is the only PQQ that has a Novel Food status. The maximum daily dose is 20 mg.
Scientists put PQQ to the test against a junk-food-style diet—high-fat and high-calorie—in mice, and the results were eye-opening.
Here’s what happened: PQQ slashed total body fat and melted away that deep belly fat around the organs.
It completely blocked new fat buildup, even when the mice were overeating calories and fat. In fat cells, it shut down lipogenesis (that’s the process where your body turns calories into stored fat). Plus, it turbocharged mitochondrial biogenesis—basically, telling your cells to crank out more energy factories to burn fuel efficiently.
Real-world takeaway? PQQ stops fat from forming in the first place, keeps your waistline in check, and targets visceral fat—the dangerous kind hugging your organs that spikes disease risk.
A 2023 follow-up from the same team even flagged PQQ as a game-changer for metabolic issues like diabetes, thanks to its boost to insulin signaling and glucose uptake.
Imagine safeguarding your health without giving up life’s indulgences—PQQ makes it possible!
