Dear Brooks

I am not a researcher but if I may, I would like the dosage protocol you 
used.

Here is some information from another list you may be interested in: 
suggested dosage to be taken 3 times a day.
ALC  500mg
ALA  250mg
COQ10  80 mg
CREATINE 5g.

Costing based on Beyond A Century prices $1.82 per day.
