| | List of medications that deplete CoQ10 | Dear Reader,
There's not a shadow of a doubt among cardiologists and immunologists — if you don't have enough CoQ10 in your system, your heart and immune health are in trouble.
With just a 25% drop in CoQ10 levels you can get sick.
At a 75% drop... well, let's just say you're toast.
And when it comes to CoQ10 depletion, cholesterol lowering drugs — called statins — are the #1 culprit.
But statins aren't alone.
Medications for blood sugar control, beta-blockers to help blood pressure management and even some of the most common antidepressants deplete your body's supply of CoQ10.
List of medications that deplete CoQ10. Is what you take on the list? >>

| | Breaking Updates | | Medical Groups, Doctors Express 'Serious Concerns' about Gender-Transition Treatment for Minors | Eighteen health-policy and medical organizations have raised significant concerns about gender-transition treatment for minors, citing issues with informed consent and the lack of long-term follow-up studies on interventions. The "Doctors Protecting Children" declaration, signed by conservative groups like the American College of Pediatricians and the Catholic Medical Association, emphasizes that gender confusion in minors often resolves naturally with puberty and recommends psychotherapy for underlying mental health issues instead of medical interventions like puberty blockers and hormones. | The statement highlights the serious risks associated with gender-transition treatments, including potential sterility, and argues that evidence-based research shows little to no benefit from these interventions for adolescents experiencing gender dysphoria. It also references leaked internal documents from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), which revealed concerns among experts about the lack of understanding and potential consequences for young patients undergoing life-altering medical procedures. | Despite public advocacy from WPATH for access to puberty blockers and surgeries for individuals with diagnosed gender incongruence, leaked documents and expert opinions suggest significant uncertainties and risks associated with these treatments. Concerns include potential impacts on fertility, sexual development, and overall health, prompting calls from medical professionals to reevaluate current transgender treatment protocols for minors. | Read more updates here |

| Florida High Schoolers Plunge Head First Into NIL Waters — Part of Sea Change For Young Athletes | The landscape of college sports has undergone a significant shift, with new rules empowering student-athletes to capitalize on their name, image, and likeness (NIL), and this trend is extending to high school athletics. Numerous states, including Florida, have joined this movement, providing high school athletes with opportunities for financial gain, albeit with stringent regulations. For Orlando-area wide receiver Vernell Brown III, a highly sought-after recruit, this development signifies a milestone in recognizing the dedication and hard work of high school athletes. Brown III has already secured a sponsorship deal with Adidas, signaling a new era where high school athletes can monetize their talents. | The implementation of NIL rules in Florida awaits ratification by the State Board of Education in July. These regulations aim to prevent abuse and maintain fairness in endorsements by prohibiting certain products and imposing restrictions on transfer students seeking NIL deals. The influence and demand for high school athletics are evident, particularly in elite leagues like "OT7," where top talent showcases their skills, attracting attention even from platforms like the NFL Network. This exposure highlights the transformative potential of NIL arrangements for young athletes like Brown III and their families. | NIL deals present opportunities for financial empowerment and broader visibility, particularly for communities historically underrepresented in sports like the NFL. However, they also underscore the importance of financial literacy and parental involvement in navigating endorsement agreements. While deals are typically structured for one year or until the athlete enrolls in college, careful consideration is required to ensure alignment between high school and collegiate sponsorships. For athletes like Brown III, the focus remains on performance, but the advent of NIL in high school athletics undoubtedly marks a significant shift with implications for personal branding and future opportunities. | Read more updates here | | | American Sports & Culture |  | New date announced for rescheduled bout between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul | Mike Tyson's return to boxing will now take place against Jake Paul on November 15, after it was postponed due to the former champion experiencing a medical issue. |
