September 10, 2025
Kaneka Corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Kazuhiko Fujii) will launch the food with functional claims (*1) “Watashi no Chikara(My Energy) ™ Q10 Drink Sukoyaka Rhythm™” on September 10. Following an initial launch via the Kaneka Online Shop (*2) through group company Kaneka Foods Corporation (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President: Fukuzawa Futoshi), the product will subsequently be available on e-commerce platforms such as Rakuten and Amazon.

This product is a food with functional claims containing 100mg of the active form of coenzyme Q10 (*3). The active form of coenzyme Q10 has been reported to help maintain skin moisture, improve sleep quality, and reduce the feeling of fatigue when waking up. With the mellow sweetness of honey and the refreshing tartness of lemon, it helps to regulate your body's rhythm from within, supporting a healthy lifestyle for those experiencing “perimenopause/menopause” by drinking it during your relaxation time, such as at the end of the day.

The active form of coenzyme Q10 is not very water-soluble and tends to separate when added to beverages. Using proprietary emulsification technology, we have successfully developed a water-soluble formulation that maintains the dispersion stability of the active form of coenzyme Q10 in beverages over extended periods. This technology enables the commercialization of the active form of coenzyme Q10-containing beverages having long shelf life. In the “Watashi no Chikara (My Energy) ™” series, we are advancing the development of new products using the active form of coenzyme Q10 and will continue to expand the lineup so that customers can choose according to their needs.

Based on our mission of KANEKA thinks “Wellness First”, we will continue to make our best effort to support better lives for our customers through products related to health that contain our original ingredients.
