Co-Q-10 100mg
Overview
Co-Q-10, or Co-enzyme Q10, is taken by many of the people who have been prescribed statins by their doctor.
If you are one of the 70% of the UK adult population with higher than recommended cholesterol levels, you may take statins yourself. However, despite the many benefits of statins, one side effect of drugs like simvastatin is that they deplete the body's reserves of the essential nutrient Co-Q-10.
This can lead to excessive muscle weakness, aching and fatigue, sometimes so extreme that the patient has to stop taking statins altogether.
Taking Co-Q-10 alongside a statins regime makes perfect sense, as this may help to replenish the body's levels of Co-Q-10 and address the problems of muscle fatigue. In summary, all statin drugs cause a deficiency of Co-Q-10, which can be alleviated through supplementation, bringing about a lessening of side effects and a significant improvement in the overall quality of life.
