Hello, I've been taking B12 for some time. Before I started that I was having to sleep a couple of hours every afternoon. Now I don't have to and don't miss it. I've got CA

Try it...

🙂 CoQ10 used to be the most well known supplement recommended by both AtaxiaUK and the National Ataxia Foundation. Lots of people confirm it has been helpful, but then others say it has made no discernible difference. My last Neurologist just raised her eyebrows when I mentioned it 🙄 It can be expensive depending on the dosage, I’ve read posts from people who take up to 1200mg daily 😯

I don’t know anything about dosage I’m afraid to say. Thanks for answering, I was thinking of trying CoQ10 as it was previously recommended plus the B12as recommended byJean. I was hoping for recommendations for supplements that help the Cerebellum (I read it’s the protein that causes the shrinkage) so it can’t regenerate.....Angela

Look up the posts from Sunvox on this site. He has held off symptoms of CA by taking a regime of supplements. You would need to have lots of will power (and money) to follow his recommendations. I admire him for his tenacity and research into the science of all the supplements but don’t feel a failure if you are not able to follow.
