I take 240 mg of CoEnzyme Q-10
1000 mg of B-12 sublingual (stomach acid destroys B-12) 150mg of DHEA
and three capsules of fish oil daily.

Works for me.

Don't you love doctors that prescribe medicine for you to help with one thing and then the medicine itself causes other problems! I had very high tryglicerides and my doctor was insistent on putting me on medication. I refused and told him I would be back in 6 weeks to retest. I changed my diet to mostly whole foods, fruit especially apples, veggies, alot of fiber such as cooked barley, brown rice and oatmeal, lots of water, no coffee creamer - only soy milk. I also used supplements of red yeast rice, niacin, calcium, and a really good multivitamin. Within 6 weeks I lost 10 lbs. and had a perfect blood test. My doctor was amazed.

You might have your dad do a detox and colonix which would be very beneficial to his liver and glandular system. Go to www.dr.natura.com (site #1) and click onto the products to get the colonix and detox. If nothing else have him at least do the detox. Then keep him on the Detoxigreens (that is their multivitamin) and the Toxinout. I use both of these and will for the rest of my life. These are very high quality products and worth every penny!

Good Luck to your dad - in time all of this can be reversed!

I took "lipitor" for two years and had leg cramps,fatigue.I kept telling my doctor about these symptoms but he would just ignore me.Even though the pharmacist told me to stop taking them,that the symptoms were allergic reactions to the medication.
Finally I took myself off and started eating right ,along with taking 500 ml a day of garlic.I eat a bowl of oatmeal every day and my cholesterol came down,way down.It did take me a while to get back to my old self,but I will never take another satin drug again.First of all, it can cause damage to your muscles and liver.And your heart is a muscle. Good luck,hope he feels better soon..Ladybug

I quit taking Lipitor and all other meds with statins because of terrible leg cramps. I take a 100 mg niacin tablet every two days and it works as long as I stay on low cholesterol cooking oils like 0mgs- mazola corn oil, and get enough basic exercise like walking one mile a day.
