CoQ10 is the primary antioxidant the human cell provides to protect and support mitochondria. It helps generate ATP within the mitochondria, the main energy driver we have.
CoQ10 is ubiquitous and produce within the body, however after the age of 20 levels start to drop, so it makes sense to consider supplements to top levels up if you're north of 30.
I love the stuff myself. I went from a tired feeling 45 year old with brain fog, to having a lot more energy and a mind keen to engage all day with whatever I have going on at work
Do you have a medical condition? that's a lot of calories to take on for Breakfast, that's almost half my daily quota.
What cool stuff should I look at as I am willing to be sold on this.
The tape stays on very well. You want Micropore Surgical Tape - 2.5cm x 9.14m. Also it helps if you don't have a beard. This was the only down side for me, but I will take the better sleep / improved health over a beard.
Just keep putting it on at night, and before you know it you will wake up in the morning and have completely forget you still have it on.
Tape your mouth at night! On your easy runs, breath solely through your nose.
For the record, I am an ultra runner. Nose breathing is hugely beneficial for endurance athletes. I have seen my pace come up while heart rate / perceived effort remains the same.
I did the last years entire Montane Spine Challenger just breathing through my nose (108 mile race).
You don't need to spend $90 on some patented thing. Use simple 3M Micropore Surgical Tape 2.5cm x 9.14m, its what every one else uses for mouth taping and its exactly what a lot of dentists will suggest is used, although a few more folks are using SomniFix Sleep Strips as well. Tape works absolutely fine though, and its the consensus go to by most users.

It fixed my apnoea and chronic sinus issues. Seems I was constantly developing nasal polyps from mouth breathing all night.
Here is a dentist recommending mouth taping:
Mouth breathing is horrendous for your health and well being. There is a good reason why it was ostracized in the past ("mouth breather" was an insult). It was a clear sign of poor health in an individual.
It's one of the best unknown health hacks out there.
Which is just what you did before.
"A statistical error in the estimation of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for vitamin D was recently discovered; in a correct analysis of the data used by the Institute of Medicine, it was found that 8895 IU/d was needed for 97.5% of individuals to achieve values ≥50 nmol/L. Another study confirmed that 6201 IU/d was needed to achieve 75 nmol/L and 9122 IU/d was needed to reach 100 nmol/L. The largest meta-analysis ever conducted of studies published between 1966 and 2013 showed that 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels <75 nmol/L may be too low for safety and associated with higher all-cause mortality, demolishing the previously presumed U-shape curve of mortality associated with vitamin D levels. Since all-disease mortality is reduced to 1.0 with serum vitamin D levels ≥100 nmol/L, we call public health authorities to consider designating as the RDA at least three-fourths of the levels proposed by the Endocrine Society Expert Committee as safe upper tolerable daily intake doses. This could lead to a recommendation of 1000 IU for children <1 year on enriched formula and 1500 IU for breastfed children older than 6 months, 3000 IU for children >1 year of age, and around 8000 IU for young adults and thereafter. Actions are urgently needed to protect the global population from vitamin D deficiency."
And admit that the waters around you have grown
And accept it that soon you’ll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth saving
Then you better start swimmin' or you’ll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'
So this is essentially protectionism. I mean if engineers outside the US are just as talented and productive, why should a company only use US engineers, especially if their marketplace is global.
We had a school 'computer room' which hosted ten BBC Micros. The mathematics teacher at the time ran an after school computer club and it was alleged that the last 30 minutes were unstructured and some students had managed to get a cassette tape copy of Elite (now Elite Dangerous) loaded onto some Micros. This absolutely blew my mind and I had to get in there somehow. The problem was I knew nothing about computers and I had no computer at home to practise on (this was also not likely to change as I was part of a financially stretched single parent family).
What I did manage to do however, was get a copy of Computer Weekly from WH Smiths. This particular edition was running a monthly section on 'Programming in Basic'. Now as said I had no computer, but I was not deterred into letting that stop me, so I wrote my first program on some A4 paper. As with many first time programmers, It was a text based adventure game with a multiple choice engine:
You find yourself facing the dragon. Do you?
A, Fight the dragon B, Run away C, Use the magic potion the elf gave you. D, Do nothing.
The program itself consisted of nothing more than print statements, capturing user input and then conditionals leading to "goto line X" statements. Quite soon this got hugely un-manageable and I realised this programming stuff was not as easy as I thought. Somehow though, I summoned the confidence to take it to the math teacher for his feedback and thought perhaps he might see some promise in me sufficient to get me into the club. He leafed through a few pages and said I could join. He later told me that he was more impressed that someone would attempt such an effort, more than myself showing any sort of genius.
Years later now, that snotty nosed inquisitive 11 year old is now a Principal Engineer with a long career spent building many, many systems with many engineers. I have always remained a software engineer , while colleagues have drifted off into management. I will be honest, I am still as excited about tech as I was when I was young upstart. I am also still all to willing to take risks, fail and bite off more that I can chew. In reflection that sense of false bravado is what has led to my career being as successful as it has been. It's never been about how beautiful my code is or how well I understand the deep idiomatic nature of whatever the new language is. It’s been my naive over confident nature to always take on more than I can handle.
