If you take statins you neeed CoQ10

People who are taking statins significantly decrease the CoQ10 levels in the body. Many researchers feel the underlying reason why some people who are taking a statin drug develop muscle pain and even muscle destruction is because of these very low CoQ10 levels in the muscle.

With age, the body’s natural production of CoQ10 decreases, making CoQ10 crucial to protecting against cell deterioration, supporting energy production, and providing antioxidant protection.

CoQ10 protects against cell deterioration in the heart, and helps strengthen heart cells by converting fats and carbs into energy.
