Guest guest Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Co-Q10 is a very important co-enzyme involved in the energy production within the mitochondria (little power houses) of the cell. If you are now or have been on any statin medication, you definitely should take Co-Q10 to reduce the worst side effects of these drugs. Statins destroy the muscle tissue (rhobdomyolysis) by destroying the CoQ10. The heart is another muscle that has a lot of CoQ10. It is vital to the health of the heart. So it depends on your age, past medication, and other symptoms. I take it regularly - I found a very pure and the most absorble form available - but it is expensive. However, it is hard to put a price on good health.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 I've been using the chewable papya since I was a teenager. The last batch was from Vitamin world were just so so tasting though, and harder to chew. Cris Re: co Q 10 I have used chewable paya tablets to aid in digestion, and they are about the only thing that doesn't give me heartburn.
