Every dog owner wants to see their companion thrive, full of energy and comfortable in their daily activities. Yet, even in the healthiest dogs, a normal biological process is at play: oxidative stress caused by free radicals. This process is a natural part of aging and metabolism and can influence how a dog feels and functions over time.
For owners seeking to proactively support their dog's long-term wellness at the cellular level, a new class of powerful antioxidants is gaining attention. At the forefront is Carbon 60 (C60), a unique molecule that helps the body manage oxidative stress. This guide provides a deep dive into the science of C60 for dogs and explains how it can become a valuable addition to your canine’s overall wellness routine.
Understanding Oxidative Stress in Dogs
While we focus on diet and exercise, it's important to understand the processes occurring at a cellular level. All dogs experience oxidative stress. This happens when there's an imbalance between the production of free radicals (a normal byproduct of metabolism) and the body's ability to counteract them with antioxidants.
This balance can be particularly challenged in certain situations:
Active & Athletic Dogs: Performance dogs generate a high number of free radicals during strenuous exercise. Supplementing with C60 for dogs can be a key strategy for supporting their natural antioxidant defenses and helping maintain overall activity levels over time.6
Aging Dogs: As dogs get older, their body's natural production of antioxidants can decline, which may be reflected in natural, age-related changes in vitality and activity levels
Antioxidants from diet and supplements help the body maintain this crucial balance. Research suggests that diets rich in antioxidants support normal cellular balance and the natural aging process.
What Is C60 and How Does It Work?
Carbon 60 is a potent antioxidant. Also known as a fullerene, C60 is a molecule made of sixty carbon atoms arranged in a spherical structure. This unique shape gives it a notable capacity to interact with free radicals, earning it the nickname "free radical sponge."
For your dog to utilize C60, it must be dissolved in a high-quality carrier oil, such as organic olive or avocado oil. This process is essential for bioavailability. Research has begun to explore its effects. For example, one study involving beagle dogs given C60 in oil explored how C60 in oil may influence antioxidant activity at the cellular level.
