>>1. Would someone who has taken it be willing to tell m what dosage is best
>>for NADH?  I just got my first in the mail today: ENADA  brand NADH, 5 mg.
>>The box says one in the morning.  Is there any reason to take more?

>>Also, Q-10?  It comes in 30 mg to 150 mg capsules so presumably 150 mg per

>>2. I recently offered on the List all my leftover, tried-but-untrue,
meds -
>>permax, mirapex, tasmar, eldypryl, etc. to members who have to buy their
>>own. I got requests for all of it and then when I sent it I got back
>>heartwarming thank yous for these very modest amounts of pills, including
>>two of those rarest of things - actual old-fashioned snail mail thank you
>>notes!  Don't let your unused pills expire in your cabinets - give them to
>>other, needy List members. If you are hard-up for $ yourself having paid
for
>>them yourself, offer them at half price.  Whichever, you'll feel good
about
>>you for a day !
