Hi Fran... COenzyme CQ 10 has been commented on (as opposed to " prescribed" which are two different things!) by several if the neuros who have been guest speaker at assorted PD discussions, support groups, and the like which I've attended over the years. Generally, this is in response to specific questions by members in the audience as. MOST of the neuros kind of shrugged and mumbled something like "well this isn't considered to be LEGITIMATE medicine ..." and the next thing ya know, the neuro changes the subject! In the past coupla years, a few neuros have, if not espoused CQ10, have claimed that while it's still considered "alternative medicine" there MIGHT be some value for the PWP in it. BIG SURPRISE: DENTISTS are beginning to speak highly if CQ10's ability to hold gingivitis at bay and I've come across several articles on the medical-related Web pages by well respected dental-related Web sights which outright said that CQ10 is a BIG help in keeping ones gums healthy and recommended as an EDUCATED GUESS 300 mg (while claiming that no EXACT amount is known thru FDA or related testing. Personally, I've tried CQ10 300 mg. on a daily basis for a period of six months and found that overall I had more energy and generally felt more comfortable (and at that time the CQ10 was the ONLY new supplement I was trying out). My GUMS and overall dental health have never been so good as they were during the time I took CQ10! The ONLY reason I stopped taking the CQ10 was the price, which was waaay more then I can afford. I have no monetary interest in any pharmaceutical company and any comment I make regarding CQ10 or other drug of supplement is based upon my own experience.
