PQQ info

What is PQQ?

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a naturally occuring compound found in small amounts in foods such as dark chocolate, green tea and fermented foods such as miso. However, it is naturally produced by bacteria as it is used for it’s survival and growth.

PQQ is what is known as a “redox cofactor” in that is accepts electrons transforming into PQQH and donates them to molecules that need them.

How it works

PQQ works to increase energy by promoting the formation of new mitochondria, the power houses of the cell. It does this by activating proteins such as c-AMP and PGC-1 Alpha. These molecules work to increase the activity of so called ‘longevity molecules’ including SIRT1. These molecules then activate Tfam, a protein that increases mitochondria by attaching to DNA, allowing for existing mitochondria to be copied and produced.

In the brain PQQ is able to increase the production of nerve growth factor (NGF), a molecule that is important for both the growth and maintenance of brain cells. While the exact mechanism is not fully understood research suggests that PQQ might enhance the activity of COX enzymes. This leads to an increase in signalling molecules called prostaglandins. Higher levels of Prostaglandins are associated with increased levels of NGF and consequently improve cognitive function.

PQQ also works in the body as an antioxidant and is thought to be 100 more powerful than vitamin c. PQQ works as a direct antioxidant, helping to lower levels of harmful molecules called reactive oxygen species, protecting cells from the damage caused by high levels of oxygen. PQQ also increases the production of the body’s own antioxidant enzymes such as SOD and Catalase. These molecules are produced by cells and work in a similar way to PQQ, helping to further regulate levels of oxidative stress.

Is PQQ right for you?

Consider the following statements. If one or more of them resonate with you, PQQ might be the cognitive and mitochondrial support you’ve been looking for:

  • I’ve read that PQQ can stimulate the growth of new mitochondria, and I want to support my energy production at the cellular level.
  • I’m looking for a supplement that may help protect against oxidative stress and support long-term neurological function.
  • My focus, memory, or mental stamina could use a boost, and I’m curious about natural compounds that may enhance these areas.
  • I’m building a longevity protocol and am intrigued by the role of mitochondrial health in healthy aging.
  • A health professional or trusted source has recommended PQQ as part of a brain or energy support strategy.

Certainty of purity.

We are committed to the following quality controls to ensure consistency, reliability, and transparency in every product. Our goal is to raise industry standards and give you clear reasons to trust what you’re taking.

All products are made to cGMP (current Good Manufacturing Practice) standards, the global benchmark for supplement quality. GMP standards ensure strict control over how our supplements are produced, covering everything from cleanliness to documentation and quality control. Every step is monitored to guarantee consistency and safety in every batch, so you receive the same high-quality product every time.

Created by the US FDA, GMP regulations legally require manufacturers to ensure product safety, purity, and effectiveness. GMP minimises contamination, mix-ups, and errors, protecting consumers from ineffective or unsafe products.

GMP Guidelines Overview:

  • Manufacturing facilities must maintain a clean, hygienic environment in all areas, including labs and storage.
  • Facility design, operations, and environmental conditions must prevent cross-contamination of drug products and materials.
  • Manufacturing processes must be clearly defined, validated, and controlled to ensure consistency and compliance. Any process changes are evaluated for patient safety and product quality, with necessary validation.
  • Instructions and procedures must be written clearly and unambiguously.
  • Operators must be trained to follow approved procedures for production and control.
  • Records should be kept during manufacturing and quality control to confirm that all required steps and quality standards were met.
  • Discrepancies are investigated and documented.
  • Processes should remain controlled throughout the product life cycle, with improvements as needed.
    Records of manufacturing and distribution must be retained in an accessible format to trace the complete batch history.

At the foundation of what we offer is certainty of product quality through consistent third-party testing, specifically for purity.

In an industry where many supplement providers cannot be fully certain of their product quality, third-party testing is essential to ensure purity and safety. This process removes uncertainty, so you can be confident that you’re taking supplements that are both safe and effective.

Every active ingredient in every batch of vitalityPRO products is independently tested by accredited laboratories to ensure unbiased analysis of purity.

Additional third-party testing screens for contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, and microbes, ensuring that each product is safe for consumption. Although certificates are provided by the manufacturer, this independent validation goes beyond standard testing, adding an extra layer of quality control.

Independent third-party testing ensures that you receive reliable, high-quality products every time.

ISO 9001:2015 standards are an internationally recognised framework for effective quality management. This accreditation means we follow a structured system of continuous improvement, always refining our processes to enhance product consistency and customer satisfaction. ISO accreditation ensures that every aspect of our operations—from production to customer service—is optimised. This means better oversight, reduced risk of errors, and a clear focus on delivering consistent results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Some users, especially those with long COVID or chronic fatigue, report further fatigue, aches, and discomfort after taking PQQ. One theory suggests that PQQ may lower glutathione levels by entering a cycle of donating and accepting electrons with it. This effect is more likely for those with compromised antioxidant systems or mitochondrial dysfunction. Others speculate that PQQ might interfere with endorphin pathways, leading to heightened pain sensitivity and exhaustion. These experiences highlight the importance of monitoring individual responses.

Research indicates that taking PQQ alongside CoQ10 can lead to greater improvements in cognitive function compared to taking either supplement alone. This synergy is thought to stem from their combined support of mitochondrial health.
