Question

Could Nano-Q10 help our 37-year-old mare that is already getting 60 mL of EO-3? This is what AI collated when I Googled the question: “Coenzyme Q10 plays a vital role in cellular energy production, particularly in the mitochondria, which is essential for maintaining energy levels, especially in ageing animals. Since coenzyme Q10 levels naturally decline with age, supplementing with a bioavailable form like Nano-Q10 could potentially enhance energy metabolism, support cardiovascular health, and improve overall vitality in older horses." Is this synopsis correct?

Answer

In this case, AI is spot-on!

Nano-Q10, a source of coenzyme Q10, will help with a process called inflammaging. Systemic low-grade inflammation begins to occur as horses age. This increases oxidative stress and cellular damage as well as decreases the immune response.

By using EO-3, you are already supporting a healthy immune response and promoting anti-inflammatory properties. Adding Nano-Q10 would support your mare at a cellular level, fostering her body’s ability to generate and recycle antioxidants. It can also have positive effects on energy production, which can have an impact on aging horses as well.
