From another post I just wrote:

I read the recent studies, and was surprised they used oxidized CoQ10 vs reduced, which is absorbed multiple times better – and also focused on improved symptoms vs halting further symptoms, which I always read was the purpose of the Ubiquinol. Although, in the 2nd CoQ10 study, they did have good results in helping with symptoms, but the 3rd study didn’t bear that out. But I’m still confused as to the type of CoQ10 they selected.

My friend, David, agreed to try this, but wants to wait until he finishes his CoQ10 standard drug store stuff – 100mg twice a day. The Ubiquinol should make a difference at 1200mg, per the 2nd CoQ10 study, especially since, not only is it a higher dosage, it is 3X+ better absorbed. Wish we didn’t have to wait.

My friend, David, and I tried this diet when he started to show obvious symptoms. After a couple of weeks, his physical therapist noticed a difference and so did I. But he could not keep it up, since he likes sugar and bread. I read in this thread that someone is concerned about meat. We only used local, free range meat, which has the healthier animal fats that the keto diet was suggesting. We limited carbs, and heavy on the leafy greens. The keto chili was the best! The leafy greens also helped in keeping regular. Since it would have been difficult to have two separate meals to prepare, I ate the same foods. I also eat mostly raw, so it all fit well. I gave him my raw milk, which has great probiotics and more animal fats.

I recently gave him some organic coconut oil, unrefined, since some patients say it helps with brain fog and more stable walking. Will be posting about Ubiquinol/CoQ10, and hoping to hear from others who may have tried this. I read the recent studies, and was surprised they used oxidized CoQ10 vs reduced, which is absorbed multiple times better – and also focused on improved symptoms vs halting further symptoms, which I always read was the purpose of the Ubiquinol. Maybe someone else can shed light on this. Again, will post elsewhere if I can find a chat, or start a new one, if OK.
