Omega-3 is one of the most potent supplements you can give your dog. Many studies have shown its wide-ranging positive effects on dog health. It is essential for many physiological functions, including cell membrane structure, skin and coat health, vision, and joint function.
The most powerful Omega-3 Fatty Acids are Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). Although dogs can convert limited amounts of the less powerful Alpha-linolenic Acid (ALA) to EPA and DHA, the process isn't very efficient. This is why dogs generally need help to receive these fatty acids in sufficient quantities. The Dog Doctors Allergy Aid Antioxidant Soft Chews are a great option for these vital nutrients. They support the dog's anti-inflammatory response, reduce skin inflammation, decrease secondary infections, and lower the risk of self-trauma from licking, chewing, or scratching.
One of the main functions of these nutrients is supporting the dog's anti-inflammatory response. Thus, skin inflammation is reduced, secondary infections are decreased, and the risk of self-trauma from licking, chewing, or scratching is lessened. All of this leads to considerable improvements in skin and coat health.
This flowering plant from the ginger family plays a significant role in treating a dog's allergies and strengthening its immune system. Curcumin, the main compound of the spice, gives it anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, and antioxidant properties. Its naturally occurring antihistamine also works well as a decongestant.
First, let us clarify that grape seed extract is not toxic to dogs. While grapes and raisins are known to be harmful to canines, this substance, derived from the ground-up seeds, has a long and powerful list of benefits.
It has a high concentration of antioxidants which attack free radicals, helping to remove them from your dog's body. The extract also contains active ingredients that are anti-allergen and anti-inflammatory, providing benefits for asthma, food allergies, skin allergies such as eczema and psoriasis, and environmental allergies such as hay fever.
This powder is an amazingly versatile supplement. Combining vitamin A and zinc will help moisturise your dog's coat and skin, leading to less shedding and more suppleness. The high levels of vitamin C and fatty acids are integral for soothing inflammation and healing damaged skin.
Quercetin is a plant pigment, or flavonoid, with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Known as 'Nature's Benadryl,' it is an all-natural and safer option for improving allergies in dogs.
Bromelain, an enzyme found in the pineapple plant, helps digest and break down proteins and reduces inflammation. Combined, these two substances have a much greater anti-inflammatory effect and boost the immune system.
