History of MitoQUpdated 8 months ago

Working at the University of Otago in New Zealand’s South Island, MitoQ's founding scientists - Professors Mike Murphy and Robin Smith - created a new and unique antioxidant with a remarkable superpower - the ability to be absorbed directly into mitochondria, the powerhouses within cells.

This breakthrough was at the forefront of the new field of targeted molecules, which we now know are keys to the cellular health revolution.

As scientists, they wanted their work to have the widest positive benefit to human health. So as the results came in and the deeper benefits of MitoQ became clear, the team pivoted and released MitoQ as a health product for everyone (adults 18+).
