COENZYME Q10

Another good supplement to consider taking regularly is coenzyme Q10 (CoQlO). CoQlO is known to be crucial to the production of en­ergy in all human cells. Langsjoen et al. demonstrated that patients with cardiomyopathy (poorly contracting heart muscle) who take CoQlO have increased survival rates and increased strength of heart contraction.²⁰ CoQlO has also been shown to be effective in helping to control the progress of breast cancer. Lockwood et al. demon­strated that taking this supplement can result in objective regression of breast tumors as well as regression of cancer at sites where it had spread beyond the breast.²¹ Anything that can retard tumor growth is by definition strengthening the immune system. In fact, Folkers et al. demonstrated that taking CoQlO reliably increased levels of immune globulins and protective lymphocytes.²²
