Cherokee Custom Script Pharmacy
What is CoQ10
Do you take a statin drug such as Lipitor, Crestor, Pravachol, Simcor or Zocor?
Do you feel tired? Is your energy level dropping?
If so, CoQ10 could be the answer for you!
Statin drugs deplete your body's natural levels of CoQ10, a naturally occurring compound that is found in every cell in your body. More importantly, it plays a key role in producing energy that your body needs.
 
  • A Columbia University study found that 30 days of statins (80 mg/day) decreased CoQ10 levels by half. 
  •  

  • Another study by researchers at Kanazawa University in Japan found that smaller doses of statin drugs can reduce CoQ10. After 8 weeks of 10 mg a day statin therapy, CoQ10 levels decreased by 40 percent.
  •  

    What else happens when the body is deficient in CoQ10?Atherosclerosis, gingivitis, fatigue, fibromyalgia and high blood pressure can develop.

     

    In addition, because CoQ10 is used by heart cells to create energy, a deficiency can result in less efficient heart pumping action and arrhythmias. Low CoQ10 levels can also impair male fertility. And, of particular concern when facing serious influenza outbreaks, decreased levels of CoQ10 can lead to a weakened immune system.

    Lose Weight the Right Way
    FirstLine Therapy Introduced
     
    Cherokee Custom Script Pharmacy is introducing a new approach to weight loss. This program, FirstLine Therapy, could help you make dramatic changes not only to your weight, but to your life as well.
     
    If you are overweight, your chances of developing a chronic illness increase. Approximately 108 million American adults are overweight or obese. If you are one of these people, you have significantly increased your chances of:
    • High Blood Pressure
    • High Cholesterol
    • Type 2 Diabetes
    • Heart Disease
    • Gallbladder Disease
    • Stroke
    • Osteoarthritis
    • Sleep Apnea
    • Certain Cancers
    Cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes account for nearly 2 of every 3 deaths in the US, at a cost of $700 billion. While healthcare costs skyrocket, the national investment in preventing these diseases is estimated at less than 3% of the total annual healthcare expenditures - meaning we treat the symptoms rather than preventing the disease.
      
    FLT not only helps you lose weight, but also gain control of your body, putting your health back on track. Most chronic diseases are caused by unhealthy habits. For example, 91% of Type 2 diabetes is caused by unhealthy habits.
     
    FLT helps you adopt habits of living that may correct, or delay illness. If you battle with a large waistline, high cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease or other chronic illnesses, or if you just want a healthier body, FLT may be the solution for you.
     
    Cherokee Custom Script Pharmacy will host an informational seminar on FLT on November 13 at 7 p.m. Come find out about this new lifestyle change. There is no obligation and no charge to attend the seminar. Simply call the pharmacy at 770-704-6161 to register for the one hour seminar.
