SBH,
Thanks for being totally honest related to CoQ10. I only wish that the
subscribers to this newsgroup that are making money from statins would
be just as honest. It's obvious to most of us that some subscribers promote
the use of statins. I realize that some people benefit from statin. For
example, my sister-in-law weights over 250 pounds and NEVER exercises. She
does not even take CoQ10 and has not had any side effects related to the
many medications (including a statin) that she takes each day.
