Effects of Coenzyme Q 10 Administration in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis ( ALS ) . Report of a Case and Review
@inproceedings{Kawasaki2012EffectsOC, title={Effects of Coenzyme Q 10 Administration in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis ( ALS ) . Report of a Case and Review}, author={T. Kawasaki and R. Singh and Corn{\'e}lissen Germaine and F. Halberg}, year={2012} }
Objective: Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) appears to be a promising agent in neurodegenerative disorders because they are associated with defects in the inner mitochondrial membrane and in oxidative phosphorylation. This report aims to highlight the role of CoQ10 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Methods: A 75 year old medical scientist (1 author TK) unbiased for treatment with CoQ10, volunteered for CoQ10 administration. He himself recorded his symptoms, mood, sensations, body weight, using limb Norris… CONTINUE READING
