CoEnzyme Q-10 is good for many heart, lung and cancer issues. (Just ask Dr. Oz) It thins your blood too, so be careful. CoQ10 is fat soluble, so take it with food. Don’t take it within 4 hours of bedtime, or you won’t be able to sleep!
The statin drugs tend to increase liver damage. Always have your liver enzymes checked.

Never heard that one. I take it five minutes before lights out, and it's lights out!

Funny you should mention that.

Many years ago, they found out I had a fairly nasty mitral valve prolapse.

I read somewhere that CoQ10 was helpful for that and took it religiously for about a year.

Several years ago I went in for another routine ultrasound and asked the tech how my MVP was doing.

She asked me “*What* MVP?”.

It was gone.

Completely.

She said she’d never heard of that happening before.

I still take it just because it makes me feel better than if I don’t.

I would never take statins....not even at gunpoint....:)
