The Claim
High-intensity interval training combined with CoQ10 supplementation reduces homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) to a greater extent than high-intensity interval training alone in healthy older adults aged 65–75.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
In healthy adults aged 65 to 75, combining high-intensity interval training with CoQ10 supplements lowers insulin resistance more than doing high-intensity interval training alone.
See the scientific wording
High-intensity interval training combined with CoQ10 supplementation improves homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) more than high-intensity interval training alone in healthy older adults aged 65–75.
CoQ10 helps muscle and liver cells produce energy more efficiently while reducing harmful byproducts from energy production. This allows insulin to work better, so more sugar enters muscle cells and less is made by the liver, lowering overall blood sugar levels.
What the research says
1 studyFor older adults, doing intense exercise plus taking CoQ10 helped lower insulin resistance more than doing the exercise alone. The study showed CoQ10 made the exercise even better at improving how the body uses sugar.
