Description
NEW! Soothing solution for the Digestive Tract: Ingredients like Slippery Elm Bark and Marshmallow Root create a protective coating on the gastrointestinal lining.
Pets with pancreatitis have a sensitive digestive system that requires careful management to avoid exacerbating their condition. Our product contains ingredients specifically chosen to support gastrointestinal health, and administering it before meals can provide several key benefits:
- Soothing the Digestive Tract: Ingredients like Slippery Elm Bark and Marshmallow Root create a protective coating on the gastrointestinal lining. When given before food, this coating can help prevent irritation during digestion.
- Reducing Inflammation: Pancreatitis involves inflammation of the pancreas. Taking anti-inflammatory ingredients such as Milk Thistle and Dandelion Root before meals can help reduce this inflammation, providing a more stable environment for digestion.
- Preparing the Digestive System: L-Glutamine supports the integrity of the gut lining, and Pectin helps absorb excess water, forming a soothing gel-like substance.
Administering these ingredients before food prepares the digestive system, making it better equipped to handle meals without causing additional stress or discomfort.
By giving the supplement 30 minutes before meals, you help ensure that your pet’s digestive system is as calm and prepared as possible, minimizing the risk of discomfort and promoting better overall digestion.
For pets without pancreatitis but with other gastrointestinal issues, our product can be taken with food because:
- Enhanced Digestion: Mixing the supplement with food helps distribute the soothing and supportive ingredients evenly throughout the digestive process, enhancing their effectiveness.
- Optimal Nutrient Absorption: Ingredients like L-Glutamine and Pectin can work synergistically with the food to support gut health and aid in nutrient absorption, promoting better overall health.
- Convenience and Compliance: For many pets, taking supplements with food is more convenient and ensures they receive the full dose without resistance.
By administering the supplement with food, you help your pet manage their gastrointestinal issues effectively, ensuring they receive the full benefit of each ingredient in a manner that supports their digestive health.
