I am taking natural products to help and to lower my choles http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32709?item=10429 Fri, 25 Jul 2008 10:15:51 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32709?item=10432 I would encourage you to read the recent article (Feb. 2008) by Dr. Peter Langsjoen, MD/Cardiologist: http://www.lef.org/magazine/mag2008/feb2008_Alleviating-Congestive-Heart-Failure-With-Coenzyme-Q10_01.htm The following information from this article http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32709?item=10432 Fri, 25 Jul 2008 10:21:06 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32709?item=10433 Have you started taking coQ-10?
