VITAMINS SUPPLEMENT SUGGESTION
hi, Richard,
I take b1 and b12 jabs once a week, they seem help.
I take CO Q10 (Co-Enzyme Q10) capsules. The body ready form - Ubiquinol. Gives energy to each cell. Take a look on line.
B vitamins (especially B12) are good too.
I try various supplements such as Q10 and HTP for energy levels but cant say I have found any great difference. I always take vit C and multi vit and mineral plus a multi B vit,
I take vitamin b12. It can be taken orally or injected. I take it orally.
I get it from my GP
I think so.
Thanks
I have B12 injections privately because unable to get them on the NHS, although my neurologist agrees that they help.
How much are the😃
Frequency is weekly
Is it just B12
I pay £25 but don't go every week. This is just for a B12 injection.
Great how often?
There is a lot of information on B12 deficiency on healthunlocked.com/pasoc
Frequency seems to vary from person to person
Great noted I'm reading
I have a B12 issue due to surgery - no Terminal Ileum ...
You can buy Jarrow B12 Methylcobalamin Lozenges to dissolve under the tongue from Amazon. 5000mcg and 1000mcg. I would advise having a test first to check your level - if it is below 500 then take the 5000mcg. If it is VERY low in the range - or even below - then you should have B12 injections on the NHS. There are Guidelines that should be followed by your GP ...

Of all the vitamins and supplements I take I believe the 3 most important are:
1) trehalose - I take 2 heaping tablespoons in coffee every morning. Trehalose is a type of sugar substitute. One can buy it in the U.K. through this website:
2) Niagen - This is an expensive form of vitamin B3. One MUST understand that Niagen is NOT like other older forms of vitamin B3. It has some VERY different chemical properties. Niagen is currently in clinical trials being studied as an aide for Parkinson's. I take 4 pills in the morning and 4 pills at night for a total of 1200 mg per day. This is very expensive.
3) thiamine - also known as vitamin B1. This vitamin is heavily discussed over on the Parkinson's discussion here on Health Unlocked. Many people with Parkinson's report improvement in their symptoms after taking 2,3, or 4 g per day. I take 2.5 g. That is 5 pills of vitamin B1 every morning. Thiamine is very cheap.
BUT . . .
I also believe the single best treatment for people with ataxia is to walk on a treadmill, holding on to the rails if needed, as fast as you can for 30 minutes every day.
Hi Joe,
Since Niagen/TRU is very expensive, is it happened to find any less expensive substitute?
Already on your regimen a few selection, and shell revert with results after a passing a span. Trust, it would be too early to say anything.
Thanks a lot for being at forum for expert guide :):)
