Aging is associated with chronic, low-grade inflammation in the body, which affects the dog's ability to function in many ways. As a result, the dog's joints wear out and muscle mass decreases at an ever-increasing rate. The function of the energy factories of the muscle cells, the mitochondria, in old dogs weakens. This is partly due to the harmful effects of oxygen radicals (i.e. oxidative stress) and partly because there is not enough ubiquinone in the body. A young dog produces enough ubiquinone in its body, but as it gets older, the production of ubiquinone, or Q10, decreases. Ubiquinone is both a coenzyme and an antioxidant. As a coenzyme, it catalyzes the production of energy in cells. As an antioxidant, it protects cells from the harmful effects of oxygen radicals that are produced during energy production.
Real omegas, vitamin E and ubiquinone in one
Nutrolin® Senior is a nutritional oil that contains fish oil, vitamin E and ubiquinone. The combination supports the body of an older dog in many ways. Thanks to its exceptionally diverse omega-3 and antioxidant content, Nutrolin® Senior is a good nutritional support treatment for dogs of all ages suffering from heart failure. According to studies, the combination of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E and ubiquinone in fish oil supports heart function (Freeman et al. 1998, Sagols & Priymenko 2011)
