re bruising

[Guest guest]

Hi Fragrance

Im not a doc or anything medical, I just hunt around online for info I need to

help myself, but from reading there are many possible causes for everything so

its all trial and error, but in normal easier bruising, it is usually lack of

vitamin C, the blood vessels weaken easily and the blood leaking out under skin

is what we see as the bruise,

You would need to look at strengthening the capilliary and blood vessel walls.

Vitamin C is a main one but not the only nutrient needed for strong vessels so

you will need to google to find it all out. Meantime, you could try some vitamin

C with bioflavonoids in them and increase fruit and veg intake. its water

soluble, which means you pee it out quickly, so if you take any, take smaller

amounts a few times rather than a large one once. Also, if you take vit c with

painkillers or other supplements etc it makes them work better for it so you get

most benefit from it

As for q10, if you read it up you will find it is essential to life. We make it

naturally in our body, but as we age we make less of it. For myself, if I stop

taking it my heart lets me know by playing up, that is not because of addiction

but because the q10 is low again. It works best if you take a little fat with

it,

As for CRP and ESR, if you have inflammation from any cause they will be higher

because they are markers or pointers to show somethings up. The rise does not

tell you what problem or causes is just that somethings not right somewhere. I

expect it is the higher the number the more serious the problem. But it does

thicken blood, same as excess homocysteine and too much iron in the blood.

When I take supplements to lower mine, Im not curing the problem causing it, Im

relieving the symptoms the thick bloods giving me, thats all, but it also lowers

the chance of stroke and heart attack because if bloods thick it clots easier

and risk is higher, so in that way its a big help, but still not treating the

underlying cause.

Lycopene decreases CRP. You can do that by having a glass of tomato juice daily.

The cooked not raw type. Or cook some tomatoes or tom soup and eat. Supplements

are expensive for them.

Hope this is of some hel[

Hi, Carole,

For C0enzyme Q10, what is the dose per day? 30 mg, 50 mg, or 100 mg?

Hi Fragrance

have you got a heart problem as well as thyroid one? Do you take warfarin or

anything like that? Im wondering what you would want the q10 to do for you

When my atrial fibrillation started I took 30mg q10 then upped from there until

I knew i hit the right dose, and for me 90mg is all I need to keep me stable. I

work on the principle of having what I need not more than I need, that way I can

up again if I get worse later as I age or whatever.

You need to investigate all this for yourself before deciding on taking

anything, because even some food supplements can interact and cause serious

problems just like medications can, so you can see whats safe for you and your

meds and conditions if you look into it yourself. What helps me could hurt you

and vice versa.
