I’ve thought about this a lot and it seems that, since most people don’t want to take dozens of pills a day, the best approach is to try to define the minimum effective dose and then discuss conditions/situations that would probably respond best to higher doses. For example, a healthy person trying to prevent heart disease would benefit from taking 100 mg of CoQ10 a day, but a heart failure patient should probably take several times that amount. I’ve taken supplements since I was a teenager, so fortunately I have managed to
avoid obesity-related diseases. This is really most remarkable given the fact that I had
juvenile-onset morbid obesity that was so extreme that I was put in a research hospital
around the age of ten, and my top weight was over 600 pounds. (Later in life, of course. At any rate, keep in mind that, although my supplement program is geared toward preventing obesity-related diseases, this is an individualized experimental program that might not be appropriate for you. See our Terms of Service for more info. In addition, before we get into my personal supplement program, I'd like to discuss a few things that people can do to individualize their supplement programs and improve the results:

I
noticed you allude to a number of other supplements throughout your writing, which has me
curious: what supplements, minerals, etc. do you take, and in what quantity/frequency? I
can understand your hesitating to provide this info on your site; you'd rather persuade
and inform, rather than have someone blindly follow what you realize might be an imperfect
system or one tailored to your needs. I'd just like to use it as a jumping off point to do
my own research. So if you could provide me a list of what you take (brand products or
actual ingredient names, I can of course find one from the other) I'd really appreciate
the effort.
I really need to write more
about using supplements to prevent obesity-related diseases. Eventually my site is going
to have in-depth information on a much wider variety of health topics. It's really just a
matter of time. It is difficult (and time consuming) to reference everything and try to
put it all in perspective because (as you said) so many things need to be individualized.
) Given my medical history,
doctors trip when they see how good my blood work, blood pressure, etc. looks. I know
firsthand how beneficial (in my case, life-saving) ECA and a science-based supplement
program can be, so that is why I get aggravated by inaccurate anti-supplement propaganda.
