Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have AFIB and my heart only pumps 35-40 % of what it should , I am on a blood thinner , lisinopril and metoprolol ... I have been self prescribing COq10 , to aid the heart muscle .. my VA Doc just told me , that COQ10 does nothing to help a heart condition .
Hello, Thanks for the query. There are many benefits claimed by the use of CO enzyme Q 10. But there is hardly any definitive evidence. A few of the persons who use say they have been benefited. This more of an anecdotal evidence. The opinion voiced by your doctor is right. Thanks
