Fish oil for dogs and Omega-3 supplements are a healthy trend in
the dog and pet industry right now. The truth is, fish oil for dogs and Omega-3
fatty acids are an essential supplement for dog health. There are many benefits
to giving your dog fish oil supplement:
- Fish oil acts as
a source of energy, insulating the body against heat loss and preventing
the skin from drying and flaking. The result is a vibrant coat and
healthier, more supple skin.
- Extensive
research has shown that omega-3s help to reduce inflammation.
Inflammation, experts consider, is the root cause for most chronic
diseases and allergies in dogs.
- Just like
essential fatty acids, EPA and DHA, insulate the skin, these nutrients
cushion the joints and tissues. For younger dogs, and adult dogs, regular
fish oil supplementation can assist with healthy aging and general
wellness.
- Lower risk of
heart disease and cancer.
- Support healthy
blood lipid levels and blood viscosity.
- Provides high
levels of vitamins A and D necessary for the development of strong bones
and teeth; healthy skin and mucous membranes; and healthy night vision.
