I take CoQ10 and have done so for a little over 2 years. I actually started taking CoQ10 for other reasons. However, I have noticed a big improvement in my saliva production since starting CoQ10. And, yes, it should be the ubiquinol form. I use Life Extensions Super Ubiquinol CoQ10 100 mg with BioPQQ.
I cannot state for sure if the CoQ10 has caused the improvement. I started taking other supplements around the same time that I started the CoQ10 and I have added a few more since then. So I cannot say 100% that it is the CoQ10. However, one or several of them are helping because I take no prescription meds for dry mouth and my mouth is noticeably more moist.
As for dry nose, I use the saline irrigations and I take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine 600 mg (Life Extensions) which has loosened up my nasal secretions tremendously so that I no longer have plugged sinus cavities. My nose even runs (clear drainage) (which is better than being dry and plugged). My ENT agreed that it was the N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine which was causing the improvement. N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine is actually used in Sjogren's to loosen up the mucous in the lungs. It appears that it also works on the sinus cavities and nose too.
