Dosage:
CoQ10:
The suggested dosage of CoQ10 products varies widely. In this review alone, it ranged from 22 mg to 400 mg of CoQ10 or ubiquinol. It is probably better to determine your dosage based on amounts that have shown to be clinically efficacy (as described below) and the recommendation of your health care provider.

Using CoQ10 to treat congestive heart failure should be considered an adjunct to, not a replacement for, other medications; a daily dose of 100 to 200 mg of CoQ10 is generally used, with the dose dependent on the individual's weight. However, some doctors believe that higher doses (600 mg per day) are more effective. Be aware that improvement in symptoms may take more than one month. Don't suddenly stop taking CoQ10, because symptoms may worsen. Tapering off the supplement is recommended. Similarly, you may want to work up to the full dose over a period of weeks when starting therapy, as some people experience heart pain with full dose therapy.

CoQ10 in a daily dose of 300 mg may help prevent migraine headaches, but doesn't affect the severity or duration of migraines once they begin. It can take up to three months to achieve the full migraine preventing benefits of CoQ10.

For other diseases, the following daily doses have been used, although optimal dosage levels have not been determined: For Parkinson's disease 300 to 1,200 mg; for reducing the risk of pre-eclampsia during pregnancy 200 mg (Teran, Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2009); for hypertension 120 to 200 mg; for angina 150 mg; for reducing the likelihood of future heart problems in people who've had a first heart attack 120 mg; for HIV/AIDS 200 mg; for muscular dystrophy 100 mg; for mitochondrial encephalomyopathies 150 to 160 mg and sometimes higher; for increasing sperm motility 200 to 300 mg (Safarinejad, J Urol 2009); for increasing ubiquinol ratios in children with trisomy 21, 10 mg of ubiquinol (liquid form) per kilogram of body weight.

While daily doses for reversing "statin" side effects have not been determined, an average daily dose of 240 mg was reportedly effective in a series of 50 people treated for "statin" side effects.

A very small Japanese study of eleven healthy elderly subjects given 100 mg per day of ubiquinol showed increases in self-assessed “vitality’ and “mental health”. This dose increased plasma concentrations of ubiquinol by four-fold and increased the ratio of ubiquinol to CoQ10. Interestingly, the effects were correlated with the increased ratio rather than the increased concentration.

Divided dosing (taking two or three equally divided smaller doses instead of one large dose a day) is recommended when the total daily dose exceeds 100 mg. It is also recommended that you take CoQ10 with fatty meals to help increase absorption.

Natural vs. Synthetic:
Naturally formed CoQ10 is 100% in the "trans" isomer form. Synthetically formed material is also predominantly in the "trans" form with a small amount in the "cis" form. Since the fermentation process using bacteria or yeast is much cheaper than chemical synthesis and provides 100% natural (trans) CoQ10, most, but not all, CoQ10 found in the marketplace today is made by a fermentation process.

See the discussion of "Absorption, Formulation and Dose" in the What CL Found section above.

Concerns and Cautions:
CoQ10 is generally safe when taken by adults in appropriate amounts, but be aware that CoQ10's safety has not been evaluated for pregnant or breast-feeding women. CoQ10 has been used safely in children, under medical supervision, in doses up to 10 mg/kg/day for up to nine months. A small percentage of people may experience gastrointestinal side effects, such as nausea, which may be minimized if the dose is divided over the course of the day.

Individuals with diabetes and those taking blood thinners are strongly advised to consult a physician before taking this supplement because of potential drug interactions.

CoQ10 may lower blood pressure. It can have an additive blood pressure lowering effect when used with antihypertensive drugs. It should be discontinued at least two weeks prior to surgery as it may interfere with blood pressure control.

Certain medications, including some cholesterol-lowering "statin" drugs, beta-blockers, antidepressants, and antipsychotics may decrease the body's natural production of CoQ10; therefore, the CoQ10 dosage for individuals taking any of these drugs should possibly be higher than generally recommended.

In a 2010 report, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) concluded that most individuals currently receive enough calcium for bone health, with the exception of girls ages 9 – 18, who often do not take in enough calcium. In contrast, postmenopausal women taking supplements may be getting too much calcium, thereby increasing their risk for kidney stones.

The recommended daily intake of calcium as determined by the IOM varies by age.
For adults ages 19 to 50, 1,000 mg/day is recommended.
For those 51 to 70 it is 1,000 mg/day for men and 1,200 mg/day for women.
For people aged 71 and older it is 1,200 mg.
For younger individuals the recommended amounts are 1,300 mg/day (ages 9 through 18), 1,000 mg/day (ages 4 to 8), and 700 mg/day (ages 1 to 3).

While the recommended intake is not higher during pregnancy or breast-feeding (because women's bodies are better able to absorb and maintain calcium during these times), it is particularly important for these women to have sufficient calcium intake because it can significantly affect the bone density of their children.

Women taking a daily calcium (1,000 mg) and vitamin D (400 IU) supplement showed a 17% increase in kidney stones compared to women who did not receive the supplement (Wallace, Am J Clin Nutr 2011). The increased risk, however, is small, as only 0.35% of the women taking the calcium/vitamin D supplement reported kidney stones, compared to 0.30% of the women in the control group. A similar (17% to 20%) increase in kidney stones has been reported in studies with calcium supplementation alone, suggesting that calcium, rather than vitamin D, is the causative factor. The increased risk of kidney stones in women has been observed with calcium from supplements but not with calcium from dietary sources.

февочки, а какие нибудь саплементс для мужчин после 40-ка не посоветуете? ну для профилактики которые. что мужьям даете?

Меня сегодня прорвало . Подкину ещё полезную, на мой взгляд, инфу про воду. Немножко раздражает этот dude , но он рассказывает много важного. Если кликнуть на окошко с видео, то можно его смотреть прямо на youtube и там есть остальные части видео.

Внизу под видео - podcast с дополнительной информацией.

Мариноид, гляньте вот это http://www.kp.ru/daily/25635/800340/

А дикий мед от недикого отличается только тем, из каких цветов или насекомых он сделан. Разные сорта отличаются по цвету и вкусу в зависимости от региона, времени сбора и т.д. Я бы не стала сравнивать фермерский мед с фермерской рыбой, совершенно разные вещи.

Главное, мне кажется, покупать сырой мед, непастеризованный.
А про дикий - это, наверное, больше вопрос убеждений, чем вкуса и полезности.

Вот, я балда! Сссылку-то забыла дать! http://www.bewellbuzz.com/podcast/water-facts/

Мне кажется это именно имеется в виду дикие леса, типа, как есть wild crafted herbs или wild harvested herbs. A мёд мне кажется органическим быть не может, ну только если во всей округе где эти пчёлы пасуться, только органические растения растут Я думаю, дикий всё же полезней, но если всё так как Марина описала, мне пчёлок жалко.

Пошла смотреть, Ян! Спасибо огромное! Я так люблю читать и смотреть всякое такое!

Брала этот когдиционер на тридцатигривенную карточку, и еще чего-то, очень понравился, пахнет миндалем, такая натурашечка по текстуре, понравился

Ну дык, я ж для тебя и постю . Там ещё на предыдущей странице статья про минераллы, ты уже смотрела?

Интересно, спасибо за инфу.. Жалко пчёлок, надеюсь, они не исчезнут с нашей планеты
