Allergy, Joint and Dental Guard
This formula includes a variety of ingredients that are commonly used for supporting the health and well-being of dogs. Here's a breakdown of each ingredient and why they are included in this formula:
- Marine Collagen: Collagen supports joint, skin, and coat health, which can be particularly beneficial for aging dogs or those with joint issues.
- Inulin: Inulin is a prebiotic that helps promote healthy gut flora, improving digestion and overall gut health.
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids (EPA & DHA: Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for reducing inflammation, supporting heart health, improving skin and coat condition, and promoting cognitive function.
- Turmeric: Turmeric has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. However, it can cause staining, so producing it without colour (or with minimal colour) could be beneficial to avoid staining.
- Saccharomyces boulardii: This probiotic yeast helps in managing gastrointestinal issues, especially diarrhea, and can support gut health.
- Quercetin: Quercetin is a flavonoid that acts as an antioxidant and has anti-inflammatory properties. It is also used to manage allergies in dogs.
- Bromelain (50mg): Bromelain is an enzyme that can help with digestion and has anti-inflammatory properties, often used in combination with quercetin for allergy relief.
- Lactobacillus salivarius: This is a probiotic that supports oral health and gastrointestinal health in dogs.
