Guest guest Posted May 12, 2003 Report Share Posted May 12, 2003 Ellie, This is in reference to Dr. Mark Tarnopolosky's research for neurodegenerative diseases - full article in CMT Today magazine, September 2002 issue. pages 6 and 7. He has been researching ways to increase energy and muscle strength for people with CMT. This 'cocktail' of creatine monohydrate, lipoic acid and coenzyme Q10 and other compounds should help reduce oxidative stress, improve nerve energy and enhance the function of mitochondria. 30 people took part in his study. They were required to have a clinical family history and EMG to support their CMT diagnosis. Half the group were given a placebo, the others got the cocktail. I am not sure if the study is completed or not nor do I do not have any results. Dr. Tarnopolosky is at McMaster University Health Science Center in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. ~ Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
