Here is information about mito cocktail

Typically for mitochondrial dysfunction a mito-cocktail can be used. A typical

mito-cocktail consists of the following in the following dosage. One doctor from

Hopkins states the under as the constituent of a mito-cocktail.

Carnitine 50 mg/kg/day (22.72mg/lb/day)

Thiamine 15 mg/kg/d()

Riboflavin 15 mg/kg/d

Pantothenate 15 mg/kg/d

Coenzyme Q10 5 mg/kg/d Some give 10mg for the first 2-3 months

Vitamin E 15 mg/kg/d

Vitamin C 25 mg/kg/d

Lipoic acid 15 mg/kg/d

I have described how to use Carnitine in the section above under Methyl-B12. I

will describe here how to dose L-Carnitine. We started L-Carnitine at a slow

rate although above it states 22.72mg/lb/day. We started L-Carnitine at 7mg/lb

of body weight per day. So start DS with 200mg of L-Carnitine per day. Although

a mito cocktail consists of Alpha Lipoic Acid, we will not add this for DS as he

will be getting that while following the Andy Cuttler protocol. Always give

L-Carnitine in the morning with a FAT, like COD LIVER OIL.

The mito

Coenzyme Q10: Coenzyme Q10 is also a part of the mito-cocktail. The dosage is as

follows: 2.27mg/lb of body weight per day. That means for DS at 28 lbs you can

start him with 60mg/day and then increase it depending on his weight. You should

give it to him at the same time in the morning as L-Carnitine, with a FAT, like

COD LIVER OIL. Although the recommended dose is 2.27 mg/lb, I think we should

start really small at 1mg/lb/day. So let's start this at 30mg/day for DS and

increase the dosage gradually to 60mg/day. Always use Pure-Encapsulation brand

of CoEnzyme-Q10. I ordered the liquid brand, which is expensive. It already has

fish oil in it, so I think it should be good. I guess we could start with 2.5ml

of this liquid, which would contain approximately 50mg of Coenzyme Q10.
