My vitamin D is at 150, and I'm good with it. My LDL cholesterol is high as well (150), but low triglycerides (<70) and high HDL(60+). I aim for high cholesterol and low triglycerides.
Benfotiamine is necessary for the absorption of all the other B vitamins; B1 is a powerhouse that powers metabolic processes in ATP. Its essential to tackle fatigue and fight illness. People focus a lot on B12 but forget with B1, you wont get any Bx as that's the foundation vitamin and the first B vitamin discovered. Forgot to mention I take Vit A(Retinol Palmitate) when I fall as its crucial for IgA(mucosal) immunity. Ubiquinol is more bioavailable, have heard CoQ10 is an end product so better to take Ubiquinol for getting better CoQ10. NAC is a great antioxidant. It breaks down mucus, keeping the lungs clean. I take milk thistle for the liver, which I forgot to mention above.

i am going to do a post on my cholesterol at some point, my LDL was always quite high and i couldn't get it into range. i wasn't super bothered but becuase i couldn't get detailed labs on the sub-particles i decided to get it into range, just in case.
any thoughts on the links between vitamin A and risk of some cancers? (haven't looked deeply into this, but seen headlines pop up)
also, isn't it weird nac is a banned supplement in the US?
