The woman was started on the nutritional regimen described above in October 1991. In November 1993, the tumor was no longer palpable. Encouraged by this complete regression of a breast tumor, they began to give 390 mg per day of Co Q10 to a 74-year old woman who had refused further surgery after learning that her breast cancer had not been eradicated by previous surgery. Mammography revealed no residual tumor. As of February 1994, therapy continues with 300 mg Co Q10.
Clinical condition is excellent.
With Co-Q10 Dr. Folkers has found that breast cancer patients have significantly lower blood levels of Co Q10 than normal people. This finding, combined with the remarkable results of treating breast cancer patients with Co Q10 in Denmark, is persuasive evidence that taking supplemental Co Q10 can protect women against breast cancer. For breast cancer prevention, a dose of 100 mg per day of Co Q10 is recommended. Women who are at high risk for breast cancer because of a family history of the disease, should consider 200-300 mg a day of Co Q10. This increase was sufficient to restore levels of coQ10 to those seen in young animals.
