Guest guest Posted February 3, 2006 Report Posted February 3, 2006 In the early days of HIV, before AZT even, Karl Folkers at a branch of the University of Texas did some small studies with higher doses of Coenzyme Q10, like starting doses of 200 mg per day. He had the luxury of testing blood levels of Co Q10, and would then lower the dose. You might start high two to three weeks, and once getting results, lower to 100 mg per day. He was successful in reversing the generalized neck lymphadenopathy that people had once they had lower CD4 counts. Co Q10 is fuel for Natural Killer cells and for antigen presentation cells. You might try this, and 10 grams of L-glutamine, 1 to 2 times a day, for lymphocyte (T cell and B cell) fuel, to see if this combo helps shrink your nodes.
