Has Jeff had CPK enzyme tests? Is he still taking a statin?
Statins affect the muscles in some people, raising the CPK levels. This is potentially dangerous if not tested for as it can damage the kidneys too. People on statins should take a quality CoQ-10... to replace what is lost because of the statins. If not the heart muscle weakens, and it can be very serious. Qunol is a new high performance CoQ-10 which has solubility technology built in. Qunol CoQ1 Supplement | Coenzyme q1 | Ubiquinol Supplement : Qunol CoQ1 Some people taking Crestor, need dose reductions, if they have a specific enzyme in the P450 cytochrome group missing genetically.

Please read the label of the product you have. If it is not solubilized like the new Qunol, then most of the 200mg is not being absorbed by the GI tract.
Like other insoluble types of supplements, there are new versions becoming available to improve bioavailability. Alpha lipoic acid, and curcumin are examples that have new forms available to improve their actions. One Qunol capsule of 100mg is about equivalent to 300mg of the older version of Co Q-10. You can find Qunol at WalMart and Costco at affordable prices.
