[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP do you mind sharing what advice/feedback you about supplements and lifestyle changes from Shady Grove and GW?[/quote] GW said it couldn't hurt to try CoQ10, but advised against DHEA because of the low evidence in favor and high risk of side effects. They were also comfortable with my exercise (1-2/week), caffeine (1-2 cups/day), and alcohol (1 drink/day). SGF didn't seem to care about the CoQ10, I didn't ask about DHEA, and they encouraged more exercise and zero caffeine or alcohol. The research on all of those are pretty mixed and all of my intake is firmly in the "moderate" range, so I think it came down to one RE having more of an "you have to live your life while going through this process" attitude and the other erring on the side of minimizing any potential risk. My diet and weight are both fine to good and I never smoke (or use drugs), so neither RE commented on those. [/quote]
