Cycle Support without red yeast

**jjohn** · 04-03-2008, 08:09 AM

According to my research, prolonged use of red yeast (statiins) can cause a lack of coq10, and many other sides we aren't aware of yet. So did you guys make this formula for prolonged use? I'm just curious.

It was made, primarily, for people who did not want to take Milk Thistle during a cycle cause of liver toxicity or throughout the year as a staple. So to answer your question, yes that is why we made it.

I should add though, that Idebenone is an analog for coQ10 so i wouldnt worry so much about that.

I know it does hinder your capability to produce CoQ10, so dosing it year long wouldn't be a good idea IMO.

Thanks for the prompt answer.

I think he meant Red Yeast Rice.

And to further what Zbtboy said about idebenone:
From what I have read idebenone has all of the same qualities as CoQ10, but it isn't a pro-oxidant. That's why this particular analogue of CoQ10 was chosen over just CoQ10 itself.

Good question jjhon and and good response Zbtboy

Yes, thanks for that correction.
