HBP and protocol

My blood pressure is very unstable at the moment and I dont know if it because of ubiquinol coQ10 which I started recently so I have stopped it till I find out. My organics test shows that I really need it as my oxidative stress is very high so I am gutted to have this happen.

I am showing 150/75 in a morning going down to 135/60 at times. Previous to this it was a little higher than recommended around 130/60 I am taking Hawthorn berry extract and vit E to lower it. Is there anything else I can do and is it ok to start the protocol with HBP? I am already on the Douglas B complex one third a day.

hi brenda,
My blood pressure shot up like crazy when I was on ubiquenol recently. Every doctor (and researcher) I know has said that I need this, but I truly cannot tolerate it at this point. Maybe when things stabilize, I will try a low and slow dose. I am about 10 months into the protocol, but just 4 months into noticeable healing.
