I started taking CoQ10 based on Dr. Mike's suggestion. However, after a day or so, I started feeling really energized and worried that I was too stimulated, so I stopped.

If you've never taken CoQ10 before and you're in your 20s or 30s, you've probably lost a lot of CoQ10 already. If you start taking a high quality form of CoQ10, all of a sudden you have all of this cell energy because of how well your body absorbed it. Dr. Mike suggests starting off at a lower dose like 50 mg, and once that evens out, you can gradually increase the dosage.

Should I be taking AMPK activator or CoQ10?

Dr. Mike suggests taking both. Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is found in every cell in your body and acts as a crucial source of cellular energy. AMPK also helps prevent against obesity and diabetes.
