"Thought I was getting Parkinson's. Drink plenty of water, strong, 59, and take ubiquinol. Was losing the ability to orient in space and time, fell on brick stairs, could not get on or off escalator, tremors, muscle and joint pain. Relatively severe cognitive impairment, I would forget the subject of the conversation mid-sentence. Luckily, forgot to take the atorvastatin medicine for 2 days. The side effects started clearing. Read a research article-high insulin levels cause high cholesterol and high triglycerides. Ordered the test for insulin levels high. The research also suggests that high insulin levels are festering possibly for years before diabetes is ever diagnosed. Amazingly, it looks like I do not have any plaque buildup in my coronary arteries. Not one doctor recommended an increase in fiber. ... started taking 25 grams of fiber every 1000 calories and taking alpha-cyclodextrin, my numbers improved greatly. Will start niacin 4 times a day with food, and hopefully that will help as well."
