This study tested whether taking a supplement called ubiquinol-10 (a form of coenzyme Q10) could help people with ME/CFS feel better. Researchers first gave 20 patients ubiquinol-10 for 8 weeks and saw improvements, then tested it more rigorously in 43 patients who either received ubiquinol-10 or a placebo for 12 weeks. The results suggested that ubiquinol-10 may help improve some CFS symptoms, particularly problems with nerve function and thinking ability.
