About low Vit D and high Cholesterol;

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking!
I have gone carrfully through your concern.
The Vit D level is slightly decreased and you should take supplements during winter season; Vit D3 ( there are different comercial names, depend on the country you live), 1000 UI per day, recommended to be taken after the most fatty meal.
The cholesterol level is not to be concerned if you do not have other diseases such as; Diabetes, High blood pressure or obesity.
You may take CoQ10 supplements, one tb per day for 6 months.
Hope the imformation will help.
Best wishes,
Dr.Mirjeta
