As an aside, do you take Coq10?
I am high risk for breast cancer and colon cancer. This has been a part of my life for 20 years. So yes, I live my life fighting cancer daily. You are SO RIGHT!

I take a product by Thorne - Q-Best 100 which is Coq10. I also take a bunch of other supplements.

I had a bit a scare last month (really scary) and they found I had a blood clot through a DDimer test (+3400). I thought I was having a heart attack, but it was a blood clot that had most likely broken off. Therefore, I am on natural blood thinners and tons of cardiovascular supplements. My heart and lungs (surprisingly) are strong and young.

I have an appointment next week with my naturalist and we will see where I am at and what supplements we need to add. Since taking her protocol, I feel healthier than I have in years. Though expensive - this is running about $250 a month, but my boss is paying for everything. In contrast to the $6 a month I would be paying for pharmaceuticals

I am happy to read Dapper that you are doing so much better since your colon cancer. It is so important for us to be vigilant with our bodies.
