My Aunt

September 9, 2010

I am sorry if I offended anyone by sharing about my Aunt's side effect to Co Q

10. I have no idea if she used a cheap brand or spoke to her doctor before. I

was just trying to help and I don't know if insomnia is a common side effect or

not. I also didn't mean any harm in saying that I personally would not use

wikepedia as a credible source for information for my child and was only going

by the quote I read to use that to search. I have met many wonderful people in

this group and appreciate all that I have learned here. I once was a new member

too not that long ago. I was just trying to help because others have helped me.

I am putting your entire message below that I responded to again to say I am

sorry. The reason I pulled out the one sentence about wikapedia was not to

attack you. I did that because to me the rest of your message provided dosage

information that made me uncomfortable due to my Aunt and what happened to her

and then you stated to check with your doctor " if you feel unsure about the

doseage " and didn't mention to check with your child's pediatrician for not just

dosage but use and safety of Co Q 10 in children. I was sharing to help because

it took awhile to figure out that the Co Q 10 was the cause of my Aunt's

insomnia and she was exhausted. I can't imagine how parents would deal with a

child with insomnia! Again I don't know if insomnia is common in adults taking

Co Q 10 as I don't know many people that take it. It's also the first I have

heard of Co Q 10 for children so don't know if it is a side effect in children

too. I hope I explained why I only quoted the part about wikapedia. Again was

trying to help you and others. Kate

Hi ,

Jonah is almost 4 and is 44 lbs. His DAN doctor(Defeat Autism Now) said 50 mg of

ubiquinol was well within safe levels for Jonah. Though there is limited

research with children, parent's of autistic children were taking greater

amounts of ubiquinone coq10 without side effects. I chose ubiquinol COQ10 since

you get better results with a much smaller dosage. If you would like to know why

Ubiquinol COQ10 is so important for cells, google Ubiquinol and wikipedia to

start. I encourage you to speak to your pediatrician or nutritionist if you feel

unsure about the doseage.

" Ubiquinol and CoQ10 are very closely related. Ubiquinone, or CoQ10, is the

oxidized form of the molecule. This means it has to be converted to a

non-oxidized form before it can perform its work. Ubiquinol is the active form

of this nutrient. Our bodies convert CoQ10 to ubiquinol ï¿½ which is the form

needed to produce cellular energy. "

I hope this helps.
