Statins damage your liver and deplete your coenzyme Q10 levels. Please get your liver enzymes checked every 3 months.

They stopped doing that several years ago because the actual incidence of liver problems is so low. Sure, they may throw in an LFT order on a serum test for another reason but it's not required. On the CoQ10, it does seem to be essential for me to take the supplements otherwise I get the myalgias.

I’ve been taking CoQ10 for years, but I never figured out what the best dosage is. I take a few vitamins daily, plus fish oil and raw bee pollen, but never been a megadose guy. Do you happen to know an effective but conservative recommended dose for CoQ10? Thanks.
