CoQ-10 and other supplements

It's always great to hear what others are taking to maintain and improve their health. I thought I was taking a decent amount and my CoQ-10 is low compared with yours.

Since my cholesterol is a bit high, I've been taking Solaray (love this brand!) of Red Yeast Rice Plus CoQ-10 twice a day and I see that there's only 30 mg. of CoQ-10 in each capsule. So, maybe I'd better add a separate one to up the dose a bit.

As for my other supplements, I take NutriCology's Multi-Vi-Min without copper & iron, Vit. D-3 (2,000 IU), MSM, Turmeric, RXOmega-3 Factors (EPA 400 mg/DHA 200 mg), and Cal-Mag Citrate.

Big virtual hugs,

Vicki Z
