Specific Canine COD Omega Plus Support 7.5kg

SPECIFIC Canine COD Omega Plus Support has unique high levels of omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, from fish oil and the omega-6 fatty acid GLA, from borage oil. These fatty acids can affect the immune response and processes in the body by altered eicosanoid production. Through production of less-inflammatory eicosanoids, EPA, DHA and GLA can dampen hyper responsive inflammatory reactions. In dogs with atopic dermatitis, EPA, DHA and GLA can dampen the inflammatory response in the skin, making SPECIFIC CΩD Omega Plus Support an optimal diet for dogs with atopy. Altered eicosanoid production can also support other immune related and inflammatory conditions like asthma and colitis. Key Benefits: Contains beta-glucans, and increased levels of zinc, selenium, arginine and n-3
fatty acids to support the immune status. Beta-glucans can bind to macrophages and alert the immune system, resulting in an enhanced anti-microbial activity and cellular defence and an anti-inflammatory response. High energy density, high concentration of essential nutrients, high digestibility and excellent palatability support recovery from disease, surgery, injuries or periods of debility. The unique high level of n-3 fatty acids counteracts cachexia related to e.g. canceror cardiac disease. The increased level of immune-supporting nutrients enhances the immune status for increased resistance towards infections. L-carnitine and taurine are added to the diet to support the heart muscle function. In combination with the moderate level of sodium to help to reduce water retention and
hypertension and the high level of omega-3 fatty acids to help to counteract cachexia and to improve arrhythmia, the diet provides nutritional support for dogs with reduced heart function. The skin has an active metabolism and high demand for skin-related nutrients. The increased levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, total fat, vitamin B complex, vitamin A, vitaminE, protein, zinc and selenium support a healthy skin and coat.
