These compositions can take the form of dietary supplements in capsules, tablets, powder, gel, liquid, bar or in a single serving tube. The bioadhesive can be a synthetic polymer such as poly acrylic acid, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, polycarbophil and poly methylacrylate derivatives. The invention also relates to methods of increasing uptake of Coenzyme Q10 because the bioadhesive substance increases the uptake of Coenzyme Q10 when taken orally in combination.
