Properties per ingredient: The extremely essential fatty acids can be divided into two large families: the omega-3 family (alpha-linolenic acid group) and the omega-6 family (linolenic acid group). Since the animal body cannot produce these fatty acids itself, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids must be obtained through feed or dietary supplements. These essential fatty acids were previously also known as vitamin F.
In the 20th century, the ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids in the diet has shifted sharply in favor of omega-6 fatty acids. The increasing use of vegetable oils and fats rich in omega-6 fatty acids stimulates the formation of arachidonic acid at the expense of EPA and DHA. Arachidonic acid itself is abundant in the Western diet. It is estimated that the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in the Western diet is about 20-25:1. Researchers argue that a ratio of about 5:1 is more desirable. Evolutionarily speaking, the dog (and its predecessors) has consumed omega-6 and omega-3 in a (probably) 1:1 ratio for millions of years.
The enzyme delta-6-desaturase controls both the conversion of linoleic acid into DGLA and the conversion of ALA into (possibly) EPA. An excess of linoleic acid means that ALA can hardly use the enzyme, so that EPA and DHA are hardly formed. This enzyme is already the slowest step in the chain, and the function of this enzyme is also inhibited by many factors in the diet (including trans fatty acids, saturated fats, zinc, magnesium and/or vitamin B6 deficiency, alcohol) and metabolic factors (hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, certain medications). As a result, many animals in our western society can hardly produce GLA and EPA themselves and these fatty acids must therefore be supplied through food.
Dosage and application:
Unless otherwise prescribed by a physician.
The optimal dosage is once daily: (increase the dosage slowly).
Dog 1 - 3 capsule(s)
Cat 1 - 2 capsule(s)
Instructions for use In an acute situation, the dosage may be increased on veterinary advice. When administering Omega-3 oil, loose stools may occur at first. If necessary, build up slowly.
treatment duration
Omega-3 fatty acids are incorporated into cell membranes. This is a process that takes a few days to 2 weeks. The effect is usually visible after 1 to 3 weeks. Once symptoms have reduced, a maintenance dose can be used. This is usually half the dosage stated on the packaging. When administering this product, pay attention to the animal's reaction. A higher dosage may be required at the beginning; this product can be safely administered at double the dosage. Gradually reduce the dose to the lowest possible dose when symptoms have reduced or disappeared. This product can be administered permanently for chronic complaints.
storage
After opening, store in the refrigerator. Under the influence of light and oxygen, the effectiveness of polyunsaturated fatty acids may decrease. Keep out of the reach of children.
Synergy and combinations with other products
This product can be safely used in combination with other natural health products and regular medications.
contraindications
There are no known contraindications in the indicated dosage.
side effects
When taking fish oil in high doses (more than 5 g EPA + DHA per day) there is a risk of loose stools.
interactions
Since omega-3 fatty acids have the property of preventing blood clotting, animals taking blood thinners, suffering from vitamin K deficiency or taking other drugs that inhibit blood clotting (aspirin) may experience internal bleeding if they take high doses of omega-3 fatty acids (more than 5 g EPA + DHA). In these cases, it is recommended to adjust the dosage. The effect of omega-3 fatty acids on blood clotting is maximum after 6 weeks of treatment.
