A: The Ubiquinol starts as a solution meaning the solution is composed of two substances inside the capsule; the substances being the Ubiquinol and olive oil. The Ubiquinol is the solute and the olive oil is the solvent. Therefore, the Ubiquinol begins as a liquid solution and through crystallization forms into a more “solid” or clumpy mass. If you look at the capsule right after crystallization has occurred, you can see the “solid” or clumpy Ubiquinol mass separated from the liquid (olive oil.) Through shipping, the heat can cause the Ubiquinol to convert back to a more liquid form. That form as you have experienced appears to be all olive oil, but the Ubiquinol crystals are still present in a microscopic form.
