Buy Coq10

Question: Is it safe to take coq10 after taking vitamin d? I took a vitamin D supplement a few hours ago and just bought some coq10...is it okay to mix the two?

Answer: Not safe. People spend $20 billion per year on vitamins and supplements.  According to Everyday Health, here's an article that will tell you why . . . those PRODUCTS by any other name do NOT WORK.  It is false advertisements

Question: why is coq10 so expensive and wheres the best place to buy?

Answer: It is a very complex molecule, thus it is expensive to manufacture. There are significant issues with absorbability of different CoQ10 products. Unfortunately, the cheapest ones are usually the least absorbable, and the more absorbable products cost more.

Question: What is the difference between softgels and tablets? i am trying to buy coq10 vitamins from ebay and there is a big difference in the price of tablets and softgels. would the tablets be anything inferior or is it just the absorbency that is the difference? i know softgels tend to be absorbed faster.

Answer: soft gels are a gelitan shell filled with the medication and when the gel melts the meds work right away. Tablets have to desolve and go to work.

Question: Where can i buy good quality vitamins online? Can anyone provide me with a site which sells good quality products like amino acids,coq10,vitamins (like B!,B2,B3,folic acid,etc). The site should be selling safe products & quality should be top criteria.Also every site claims to be selling good stuff but i really need to be sure. Price does not matter, i will pay for a good product whatever may be the price. Please use your personal experience with products to answer.

Answer: Allstarhealth.com is simply the best... GNC doesn't have that many supplements compare to allstarhealth

Question: What supplements do you recommend and why? I recently started studying supplements and am now taking Omega-3, CoQ10, and milk thistle. I'm curious what others take (and dosage) and what the benefits are. Also - what brand? I buy from Swanson Vitamins online.

Answer: I am unsure of you diet so I can not make a proper recommendation. If you are not eating fruits and vegetables on a daily bases, take Nutrilite Concentrated Fruits and Vegetables. It has 10+ servings of fruits and vegetables in just 2 tablets. You may need a multivitamin so take Nutrilite Double X Vitamin/Mineral/Phytonutrient. As you can see, it is more than a multivitamin. It also contains minerals and phytonutrient. There is also Nutrilite Daily Multivitamin/Multimineral if you are wanting something simple. Vitamin source is really important to me. I don't like the synthetic stuff which I believe Swanson is. Nutrilite is an organic vitamin company. Organic is gentle on the stomach and has a higher absolution rate. They have organic farms in Washington State and California and were the first supplement company. Go to http://Arcameda.com and click on vitamins then Multivitamin to get more information on these or search for fruit in the search box. You can also click on Women's Health for more organic options. If you have any further questions, go to my profile to email me. Hope all is well.

Question: Is Co-Q-Max Daily by Purity Products worth the money? 1 bottle costs about $40 on their super saver plan. There are 60 capsules and 1 daily serving is 2 capsules. The 2 main ingrediants are CoQ10 and Resveratrol. 1 daily serving includes 100 mg CoQ10 and 30 mg of Resveratrol. There are also some additional vitamins included. I also bought 1 bottle of CoQ10 from Carlson which has 90 soft gels where each soft gel has 200 MG of CoQ10. The price of the Carlson bottle was about $26 on Amazon.com. It doesn't have the resveratrol but it has about 9-10 times the CoQ10 for the money. The other vitamins that are included in the Purity Products product..i get from other supplements. So, is the Purity Products Co-Q-Max Daily product worth $40 a bottle? I suspect much of the cost is to pay for all their advertising and whatever. I would appreciate non-biased comments on this. Thanks.

Answer: www.purecaps.com has the best CoQ10 product line and many other products. I buy stuff from them for my personal use and for my patients.

Question: what is a good website for vitamins? I want high quality vitamins at rock bottom prices. I am tired of the higher prices at Vitamin World and GNC. I just checked into Puritan's Pride, and they say, "Buy 1 bottle of Omega 3-6-9 for $19.00 (way more than I want to spend on just ONE item when I need about 5 different vitamins right now to round out my arsenol of about 10 things I take besides my regular every-day multi-vitamin) anyway, they say, "buy one bottle at $19.00....get 2 free." To me, that is no deal. I want one bottle of Omega 3-6-9 for $4.00....biotin for $3.00.....alpha lipoic for $3.00......CoQ10 for $4.00....etc etc. I want to spend about $25.00 on five bottles plus cheap shipping and handling for "quality" vitamins....Thanks!

Answer: bodybuilding.com by far the best!

Question: Acne, new birth control, fish oil, flaxseed....help!? Hi, well, I have had pretty good skin for awhile now. I had trouble with breakouts (cystic at times), some blackheads, whiteheads, etc. when I was in high school (about 3-4 years ago). My dermotologist put me on Differin Gel and it worked really well. Since then, skins been great, I don't even need to use the Differin all the time, just once or twice a week. Around my period every month i might get a a few pimples but nothing too big or bad. I even went for months recently without having to buy a new concealer after I ran out because I didn't need it! My skin was great! Now...out of NO WHERE...i've been breaking out. Lots of smaller pimples, and now just yesterday ive started developing a big cystic one on my forehead. As a result of the earlier acne, 2 weeks ago I bought some concealer/powder that is oil free and I used to use in the past. I havent been using it too much but obviously more than I have in a long time. I know this could be the cause of the acne, but i don't think so, my skin has never been sensitive to oil free makeup and i don't use it in excess and I rinse it off at night/when I get home. SOOOO....there are a few other culprits. I started birth control for the first time in maybe a year about 3 mos ago. It has been like 2 years since I was on it for a long period of time. It's Yaz birth control and its been ok. My period is always nuts...esp. on birth control for the first few (up to 6) months. It will do what it wants...AKA come when it was supposed to (before I was on BC) and then keep coming when I start taking the placebo pills, so this month I've had my period for like 10 days. My doc says its ok as long as it regulates in a few months. Buuuut...birth control is supposed to help/stop acne! Not cause MORE! One other thing might be the vitamins ive been taking. Ive been taking this Heart Healthy Pack for like 6 months now...it contains: a fishoil capsule, a flaxseed capsule, vitamin B complex, vitamin E, and COQ10 enzyme. I also take 2 capsules of milk thistle a day. I more recently (but at least a month ago) started adding another fish oil capsule on in the evening because i found out i was only taking half the reccomended amount to help hair, nails, and skin. I think the only possible things contributing to acne could be the birth control, the extra fish oil (but ive researched and found NOTHING that says fish oil can cause acne, only help skin), or the milk thistle (but i researched that and there are no reports of milk thistle effecting the skin at all). Sooo this is long and I doubt anyone will take the time to read it...but I need help! Has anyone gotten acne from birth control...especially yaz? Or from fish oil, milk thistle, or flaxseed?? Helpppp.

Answer: What's happening is the breakouts are hormonal. The Birth control is supposed to regulate your periods and therefore your hormones. But you're also taking all these vitamins for a longer time frame already. Now your body does not know what it's supposed to do with so much you're taking. Try this: Cut out milk and dairy products from your diet. Eat a low carb like little sugar as possible. No white rice, stick to brown rice and wheat bread. Eat grilled chicken, baked fish as little fried foods as possible. Cutting out these foods will make you less hormonal. By eating better, it will make your skin better. Also how late are you sleeping? Sleep early as possible, before 12am. Sleeping late causes havoc on your skin too. I had acne while on Yaz and I was taking Multi vitamin everyday. And I had the cystic acne. It was until my dermatologist told me to sleep early, and eat better, that I saw the acne go away. It took about 2 weeks to see results. If the cystic acne is really bad and painful go to your dermatologist. Get a cortisone shot to heal the acne quick. Good luck!

Question: How to Break the Vitamin Buying Habit ? In this small office alone I have sixteen bottles of vitamins. I have 2 double kitchen wall cabinets so jammed full that one falls out when you open the door. I have 2 new ones on order. I totally believe , obviously, in the power of supplements and I am Never sick. I cannot stand the thought of not taking fish oil or flaxseed oil daily, a probiotic and spirulina pills, cal/mag, PreserVision, CoQ10, green tea weightloss pill, sometimes an Amla or Aloe Vera capsule. I just cannot stop buying the latest supplement. Maybe I'm terrified of being sick. Once in a while I throw out a bottle that has expired. I even MAKE an ointment for cold sores out of honeybee products. I'm living in a heap of jars--I have 2 quart sized liquids in the fridge I never touch. They taste too bad and I can't afford to spare the room they're taking up. Maybe I should at least throw them away?

Answer: It sounds like you might have OCD or some other issue that compels you to collect or buy certain things. It could also be some traumatic event that happened in your life that makes you want to not get sick.. it's hard to say for sure what it is. I would suggest contacting a counselor in your area to talk it out and see what you can find out. They can make recommendations for what may help you the most. Considering that you talk about the jars and lids you have (and that "once in a while, I throw out an expired bottle" part), that sends up the red flags..... it has nothing to do with the supplements themselves, it's how your mind sees them. Good luck!

Question: Chronic burning sensation of neck and face skin with little outward signs.? I am a fair skinned male age 38. This has gone on for the past 6 months now. I've seen a dermatologist for the past 5. She doesn't have a clue. She's also done no diagnostics at all. All meds she gave helped little, if at all, and many worsened the sensitivity. I have literally bought a new soap nearly every day over the past 5 months. I have also reduced washing of any skin or even my hair to once a day at most and even sometimes once every 3 or 4 days. I likely average once every other day. I used to shower once every morning and wash my face every evening. The skin is too sensitive to apply nearly anything. Lotions strangely offer no comfort and even often agitate the discomfort. I have also bought new lotions nearly every day over the past 5 months to try. One strange thing about this and perhaps a reason why I can't seem to get my dermatologist to take me very seriously at all (speculating) is that the skin doesn't look too bad at all. It feels as though it is both extremely dry and tight. However, it is rarely red. When it is red, it is a very faint red and is very irregular in shape. The skin never chafes (sp?) or peels. The skin doesn't appear appreciably thickened or thinned or wrinkled or anything, and yet it burns as though it is bone dry, and to look at the skin, one will not see signs of "moisture"/sebum/oil either, but also no apparent damage from this chronic dryness. In fact, to the touch, the skin feels rather nice, though different. It is kind of smooth and yet dry. The feel is almost like tanned animal hide, though not the polished and tanned feel or look or the rough tanned skins. It's more like a suede texture. All day, every day, there is no sign of oil production, as if my skin has forgotten how to make oil. If I apply oils or lotions, the skin feels the same or perhaps even agitated. A few lotions have made the skin noticeably red. Queen Helene's PURE (100%, nothing else) Coco butter is one of a handful of examples. Those that do not irritate, when I wake in the morning after applying these, I wake with my skin looking bone dry, but again not stressed from the dryness. The skin appearance seems nearly unmoved by the level of dryness. It nearly always looks the same except when it blotches occassional occassioanlly apparently as the result of washing or applying a lotion. I do not do anything to "deafen my body" to the pain as I feel I need the accuity of sense to tell that something is wrong with my skin and when NOT to wash it or get to abrasive with it (by rubbing or wearing something to tight around the neck, like a shirt with a small whole for my head.) I eat healthy, blanced meals. I sleep fairly regularly -- typically 11pm-8am. I work 9am-7 or 8pm. For most of my life I have taken vitamins. Early in life, the Centrum variety with mostly 100% USRDA of the most "fundamental" nutrients. In my late 20's and early 30's, I commonly did the "Super, Ultra, Mega" (lol) vitamins like Source of Life or GNC Ultra Mega Green or my own home-made cocktails even throwing in things not a part of the USRDA guidelines, like CoQ10, Zeaxanthine (sp?), Acai (not at all impressed), fish oils, green tea, "shrooms" and on and on... About 3 months into this skin pain, I got paranoid that perhaps I'd screwed up my body by experimenting with these "super nutrients" so I stopped taking them alltogether. This didn't improve things. Though I eat healthy, I am sedentary. I am not overweight. I am 165# at 5'9". I do not smoke. I have never smoked. I essentially do not drink, though occassionally I will have a drink or 2 or 3, but never to excess and probably less than once a month. The only other symptoms I have are: pretty major acne -- which came on a few months into the skin pain, perhaps from reduced washing and frequent soap changing or perhaps somehow tied to this whole skin problem. Whichever, I find it amazing that almost anywhere you read on the acne, acne is linked to sebum, sebum, sebum and other oils. MY SKIN SEEMS TO NOT BE MAKING ANY SEBUM!!! HELLO??? And only recently have I began even allowing myself to use oil containing moisturizers. In fact, I am tempted to try Jojoba which I read is nearly identical to human sebum. However, I'd like to know why my body has seem to shutdown sebum production. I can go days without wahing and still have no signs of sebum in hair or skin. I have read on sebum production, and I am providing all the needed nutrients so why are my body's oil glands apparently on strike??? And why is my skin so resilient as if it doesn't need "no stinking oil" anyways, though my pain sensors disagree? Unfortunately, the bizarre random pinkness is never present for my dermatologist appointments. When it is at it's most pronounced, I find it quite disturbing b/c it looks unlike anything I have read about or seen. It is not raised. It is flat. It is not red. It is pink. There are no bumps. There is no scali Yahoo cut my question approximately in half. It does this all the time and doesn't show this in the preview. I wish I knew how many characters they limit me to. I wish they'd stop allowing me to type when that limit is reached as they do in this dialog and the dialog for the "title." Anyways, I have tried a whoooole lot. The 1st few months, going the doc+scripts+OTC routes and the last month, conservatively, with the "natural" route, favoring soaps, oils, moisturizers and the like with as few ingredients as possible. Starting taking Evening Primerose Oil, Fish Oils, Biotin, Niacin and Folic Acid ~ 1 week ago, and Burdock ~ 1 month ago. No improvements still. I know there are many other things to try. Also, do skin scrapes hurt? Skin biopsies? Does a biopsy scar? How do I get a doc to do a test?

Answer: I have the same thing. My face feels like its burning under the skin. Do drink plenty of water and try flax seed oil capsules. Don't use any lotion and when you have to wash your face, use tepid water and pat the skin dry. I tried olive oil and it burned, and so does that aveeno calming cream

Question: Will taking these vitamins help me with running? I run 6.5 Miles a day, and am trying to build up my endurance for when I run 5k's (3.1 miles), but I have a hard time pushing myself hard when training. I just bought these 2 vitamins, do you think they will help me get that extra pop in my step when training, if I take them an hour before going running? I have read mixed reviews on both of these products. Once a Day Energy & Qunol Ultra CoQ10 Thanks so much. =)

Answer: 1) Vitamins would only help if you have a vitamin deficiency. 2) If you just want to finish a 5k you are doing more than enough. 3) If you want to run a 5k to the best of your potential then there is more to it than running 6.5 miles daily. Certainly don't run hard every day. I don't even suggest running every day, take a day off a week. These last two points are probably why you don't feel that extra pop in your step. You run one day hard, one day easy. The easy day is just as important, if not more, than the hard day. 4) I would suggest the following: 1 long run day with the goal of running an hour and a half SLOWLY, the only purpose is to keep running for an hour and a half A tempo run day which is a half hour run about 30 seconds per mile slower than your current 5k pace An interval run day of 8-12 400m at your current 5k pace The other days you run, go about 4-5 miles easy. Save yourself for the 3 workouts above. Good luck!

Question: Will my indoor/outdoor lotion ruin the acrylic in the tanning bed? I just bought an indoor tanning lotion. It was cheap so I thought I'd give it a try. European Gold: Sweet Brown this is the product description: Triple bronzers with DHA and Biotan Complex provide gorgeous color, while Hemp Seed Oil and CoQ10 complex, and skin firmers make your skin soft, supple, and simply beautiful. Add in our new exotic Wine Extracts, it's simply the most intoxicating way to tan! Hempseed Oil, Sesame seed oil, jojoba oil, green tea extract.... are some of the ingredients. I did some internet research and mainly found that lotions with mineral oil or baby oil are bad for the acrylic. This lotion doesn't contain those. Is it safe for acrylic?

Answer: It's difficult to say without knowing what the carrier liquid is. You could test it on a small area of the sheet and leave it for a week or so. If you spot fine cracks or crazing then the lotion is causing damage to the acrylic and making it weaker. If you decide to use it then it would be best to give the acrylic a clean after you have finished with the bed using soap / water on a damp cloth with the electrics off !

Question: Is it safe to take coq10 after taking vitamin d? I took a vitamin D supplement a few hours ago and just bought some coq10...is it okay to mix the two?

Answer: Herbs are tricky and it is best for you to invest in an herbal encyclopedia of some type. Yes it is safe to mix the two. From what I understand COQ 10 is not good for people on blood thinners.

Question: Where can i buy good quality vitamins online? Can anyone provide me with a site which sells good quality products like amino acids,coq10,vitamins (like B!,B2,B3,folic acid,etc). The site should be selling safe products & quality should be top criteria.Also every site claims to be selling good stuff but i really need to be sure. Price does not matter, i will pay for a good product whatever may be the price. Please use your personal experience with products to answer.
