How it works
Ubicar Tablet is a combination of Coenzyme Q10 and Levo-carnitine. Coenzyme Q-10 acts as an antioxidant and works by preventing damage to the body by free radicals (unstable oxygen molecules having an affinity to react with any molecule in the body, causing harm). Coenzyme Q-10 donates an electron to these unstable free radicals and makes them stable and less reactive. Levocarnitine helps in the transportation of fatty acids into the cells where it converts fats into utilizable energy.
