Maqui

Aristotelia chilensis · Chilenische Weinbeere

Mechanism

Bei Maqui machen Delphinidin-Glykoside (v.a. Delphinidin-3-glucosid und -3,5-diglucosid) ueber 85% der Anthocyane aus (PMID 24497378). In-vitro-Arbeiten zeigen retinoprotektive und antioxidative Effekte (PMID 23561088). Ein standardisierter delphinidinreicher Extrakt (Delphinol) senkte bei prediabetischen Menschen Nuechtern- und postprandiale Glykaemie sowie Insulinaemie im oralen Glukosetoleranztest (DOI 10.1155/2016/9070537). Kontrollierte Pferdestudien fehlen vollstaendig; die Uebertragbarkeit dieser Humandaten auf den Pferdestoffwechsel ist offen.

Cautions

· Keine equinen Wirksamkeits- oder Sicherheitsdaten
· Theoretisch blutzuckerbeeinflussend (Humandaten) - bei diaetetischem Stoffwechselmanagement beachten
· Anthocyan-Standardisierung der Handelsware variiert stark

How the Equiterna Score is built

The Equiterna Score combines three dimensions into a value of 0-100: science (40%), practical experience (30%) and safety (30%). It is transparently derived from evidence level, attributed sources (PubMed/journals), legal classification and cautions. The FEI doping status is shown separately as a competition-law note and does not enter the score. Commissions and vendor relationships have no influence on the score. In addition, the editorial safety rating caps the result: it limits the safety dimension and the overall tier (orange: at most solid). For entries rated red, no score is calculated at all. The rating never raises anything — a green rating does not lift a calculated value.

An editorial assessment of the evidence and safety situation — not a healing claim and not an individual recommendation. It does not replace veterinary advice.
