Coenzyme Q10 and diabetes Part 2

Another problem with CoQ10 sold in health food stores is that the dose of the supplement is not regulated. It is available in a wide range of concentrations and sold under many generic names. And each product appears to have a different concentration of CoQ10.

There are also reports of contamination of CoQ10 products with various chemicals. Since many of these health supplements are made in the Orient and not well regulated, it is wise for all diabetics to check with their health care provider before they start CoQ10.

For the present, all diabetics should know that CoQ10 is not a substitute for insulin or any of the other oral diabetic medications.
