Do you take Lipitor or
another cholesterol-lowering drug? If yes, you should be aware
that one of the side effects of statins is reduction of co-enzyme Q10,
an essential nutrient required by your body for proper heart and muscle
function.
Dr. Duane Graveline, a former USAF flight surgeon,
former NASA astronaut, and a retired family doctor, says:
"The
heart is usually the first to feel statin associated CoQ10 depletion
because of its extremely high energy demands. Physicians are seeing this
as cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure but chronic fatigue is
also being reported and we must remember that every cell in the body is
dependent upon adequate energy reserves. In addition to it's critically
important role in energy production, CoQ10 has a possibly even greater
role within the mitochondria as an anti-oxidant, with a free
radical-quenching ability some 50 times greater than that of vitamin E."
