Coenzyme Q10 is a supplement that supports the immune system, cardiovascular functions, and periodontal health, in dogs and cats of all breeds. Coenzyme Q10 increases the energy and exercise tolerance in older animals; giving them renewed health and vigor!
Coenzyme Q10 is a fat-soluble nutrient, also known as ubiquinone, that is produced naturally in mammals. It is recognized by veterinarians for its preventive and therapeutic effects. As a cofactor, it is essential in the production of ATP.
Cardiovascular System
Coenzyme Q10 seems to control the flow of oxygen within individual cells, and it increases cellular energy production. The role of this vital nutrient in cellular respiration may help reduce low-oxygen states in the heart, thus protecting it from damage. The heart contains the highest concentration of Coenzyme Q10 because of its high energy demands. If sufficient levels of Coenzyme Q10 are not maintained, then the heart can weaken and be susceptible to malfunction resulting in insufficient blood circulation. This is especially critical in older animals since Coenzyme Q10 production drops off significantly with age.
Periodontal Health
A deficiency of Coenzyme Q10 in gum tissue cells can lead to periodontal dysfunction and may lead to pain, tooth loss, and malnutrition due to an inability to chew properly. Regular supplementation with Coenzyme Q10 provides nutritional support to keep gum tissue healthy.
The Immune System
Coenzyme Q10 production slows as as animal ages. By supplementing with Coenzyme Q10, the age-related decline of Coenzyme Q10 is corrected. Coenzyme Q10 also functions as an antioxidant and free-radical scavenger (similar to Vitamin E) to support immune system function.
Suggested Use
As a dietary supplement, give 1 capsule per 10 lbs of body weight. If feeding is more than 1 capsule, divide between AM and PM.
