According to Science Magazine, animals on
synthetic vitamins found in all dog foods dropped dead long before the animals on no synthetic
vitamins.
One of the most perilous deceptions is
the passing off on a gullible public, phony, synthetic vitamins and
preaching THAT THE BODY DOES NOT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE. At the very best,
synthetic vitamins can function in the body as a DRUG OR PHARMACEUTICAL
AGENT; certainly not as a natural nutrient.

YOUR PETS HAPPY !
Read this carefully:
Dr. Daniel Mudryk writes:
Synthetic Vitamins
vs Whole complex Natural Vitamins
KEEP YOUR PET'S IMMUNE SYSTEM STRONG!
Whole food supplements are what their name
suggests: Supplements made from concentrated whole foods. The vitamins found
within these supplements are not isolated. They are highly complex
structures that combine a variety of enzymes, co-enzymes, antioxidants,
trace elements, activators
and
many other unknown or undiscovered factors all working together
synergistically, to enable this vitamin complex to do its job in your pet's
body. Nutrients from within this complex cannot be taken apart or isolated
from the whole, and then be expected to do the same job in the body as the
whole complex is designed to do. For instance, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) or
vitamin E (alpha tocopherol) you can find on most health food store shelves.
They are parts of an entire complex that serve a purpose when part of the
whole. However, they cannot do the job of the entire complex by themselves.
Vitamin C for instance in a lab created standard multi-vitamin is missing
P,K,J Co-Factors, Ascorbinogen, Bioflavonoid, Tyrosinase and more. Whole
food vitamin C or “living” Vitamin C has all of these things bound to it to
make it fully bioactive in the body right when you take it. One can analyze
what a typical synthetic multivitamin truly is. The automobile equivalent of
creating a multivitamin would be going to a junk yard, finding all of the
separate parts you would need to make up an entire automobile, throwing them
together in a heap (or capsule in terms of the multivitamin) and expecting
that heap to drive like a car! Obviously, there is a difference.
Science cannot create life. Only life can
create life!
When
you don't use or stop giving your pet these vital nutrients missing from
their food, you will not
know when your pet has a low immune system until it is too late.
Here come the needless pain and suffering as well
as the Vet Bills Guaranteed!
Why not try to avoid mental anguish , Vet
bills or worse, an early death caused by ignorance. Keep your beloved pet healthy.
Take a proactive stance
instead of a reactive one.
Below are the three distinctly different and
very important supplements we use for our Golden's
each and every day to boost and maintain a high immune system and protection
of
their joints.
The Right Supplement Given
Every Day Will Help With:
* Allergies
* Skin and Coat Problems
* Scratching, Itching, Biting
* Hot Spots *
*Arthritis Joint Problems (incl. non-genetic)
* Premature Aging
* Low Energy
* Diabetes
*Liver Problems
* Cancer (certain types)
* Cataracts Tumors
* Digestive Problems
* Tearing
* Heart Disease Safe /Natural /Water Soluble
(easy on the stomach)
This
is, in part, what I recommend for you to keep your Golden Retriever and other
family pets
healthy.
When
you order on Auto-ship, expect a 15% discount on ALL orders not just
the first order.
Folks, these
three supplements are
what we use with our Golden's with every meal to keep them healthy and free
of cancer. Together they work as a very powerful natural immune booster. Food
alone will not create a strong defense against cancer and disease.

I recommend both
1) Nu-Vet Plus K-9 Wafers (for the immune system)
and
2) Nu-Joint DS K-9 Wafers (for the Joints)
The Third Supplement I recommend below is
3) ALSO very important!
If your Dog has ever had Antibiotics and/or drank unfiltered
chlorinated tap water OR been in a swimming pool or you are feeding him
kibbles. This product, when added to
his/her diet will help Him/Her greatly by opening up the pathway in the gut to allow absorption of nutrients into the blood stream..
Given with every meal, the enzymes in this product will also help
to prevent bloat and IBD.
Look for "Dogzymes
Probiotic Max" on this web site
A dog's health is only as good as what he/she is able to
absorb, this includes supplements! Once the bad bacteria is eliminated from
the gut, your pet will regain his/her health provided you supplement his/her
diet every day along with a well balanced food diet.
--------------------------------------
Below are the ingredients
listed alphabetically found in
Nu-Vet Plus
ALFALFA
Alfalfa is known as the "King of Plants", and its roots have been used for
centuries in many cultures. The herb belongs to the legume family, closely
related to beans and peas. Alfalfa is an excellent source of vitamins D, E
and K, beta-carotene, minerals, fiber, chlorophyll, calcium, proteins and
fats. It is especially rich in the amino acid tryptophane. It is considered
to be a very nutritious herb, and is used to increase appetite, alleviate
certain allergic reactions and help poor digestion. It may also reduce the
inflammation due to arthritis and rheumatism. (Canine formula)
ALPHA AMYLASE
A soluble fiber digest ant. We believe Nu-Vet Plus™ is the finest pet
supplement available, however it must be able to be digested as efficiently
as possible. Alpha Amylase creates the means by which the ingredients will
be absorbed into the body as rapidly as possible without diminishing Nu-Vet
Plus™' powerful antioxidant capabilities.
AMINO ACIDS
Necessary for the synthesis of body proteins and many other tissue
constituents. Amino acids aid in building new muscle, bone and tendon cells;
play a vital role in metabolism, stamina, and brain function; and enable
vitamins and minerals to be properly absorbed and assimilated. There are
approximately twenty-eight amino acids that combine in various ways to
create hundreds of different types of proteins. Some amino acids enhance the
immune system by stimulating the antioxidant activity of certain enzymes and
can help prevent skin and coat problems. Others prevent premature aging,
tumors, nerve disease and connective tissue disorders.
Pet foods high in protein may or may not contain all the necessary amino
acids to maintain proper health of a pet. This deficiency could cause a host
of problems ranging from indigestion, stunted growth, nervous disorders, or
worse. Nu-Vet Plus™, with its specifically blended natural ingredients,
contains all the critical amino acids that must be introduced through the
diet for proper health.
BETA-CAROTENE
The precursor to Vitamin A becomes a powerful free radical scavenger in the
body. Vitamin A is essential in skeletal growth, testicular and ovarian
function, embryonic development, and differentiation of tissues. It is
crucial for proper eye function and possible cataract reduction. Vitamin A
is necessary for healthy skin and mucous membranes, the body’s first line of
defense against invading microorganisms and toxins, and promotes the immune
response. Beta-Carotene and Vitamin A destroy carcinogens (cancer-causing
agents), guards against heart disease and stroke, and lowers cholesterol.
BLUE GREEN ALGAE
1st ingredient
Blue Green Algae is nature's most basic food. Existing at the beginning of
the food chain, it provides nutrition in its simplest form. Blue Green Algae
has a greater amount of protein than any other whole food. It provides the
essential nutrients for the health of the physical body, and the smooth
operation of the brain and nervous system. Blue Green Algae is a very rich
chlorophyll source and has been shown to enhance the health of the entire
body, strengthen the immune system, promote intestinal regularity and the
healing of wounds, boosts hemoglobin production and helps purify the blood.
The trace minerals found in blue green algae are Boron, Calcium, Chlorine,
Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Fluorine, Geranium, Iodine, Iron, Magnesium,
Manganese, Molybdenum, Nickel, Phosphorus, Potassium, Silicon, Sodium, Tin,
Titanium, Vanadium, and Zinc.
BREWER’S YEAST
A balanced, natural source of B-Complex vitamins (also see Chicken Liver).
Studies show another beneficial effect of Brewer’s Yeast supplementation is
significant reduction of body fleas on companion pets.
CAT’S CLAW (UNA DE GATO)
Cat's Claw, also known as Una de Gato, is an ancient herb, found in the rain
forest of Peru. This singular and wild woody vine is known for its amazing
healing properties and has been used by native people for centuries. It
cleanses the intestinal track, enhances the action of white blood cells, and
acts as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. It is good for intestinal
problems and viral infections. Research in different countries including
Germany, Austria, England, and Hungary has shown that Cat’s Claw can
stimulate the immune system and may help in the treatment of diseases
including cancer, AIDS, viral or respiratory infections, allergies,
arthritis and rheumatism.
CHICKEN LIVER
We use 100% chicken liver, which is paddle-dried in order to retain the
omega fatty acids and vitamins A, C, and the B-complex vitamin group.
Contains minerals including calcium, copper, phosphorous, and iron. Chicken
liver is good for anemia and aids in building healthy red blood cells. It is
known to increase energy, fight liver disorders, and help relieve stress in
the body.
COPPER
Aids in the formation of red blood cells, and works with Vitamin C to form
elastin, an important protein that makes up bone, skin and connective
tissue. It aids in the healing process and energy production. This mineral
is needed for healthy nerves and joints. A sign of copper deficiency is
osteoporosis.
EVENING PRIMROSE OIL
High in gamma linolenic acid (GLA), an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid
that promotes cardiovascular health. It is known to prevent hardening of the
arteries, heart disease and high blood pressure, and aids in lowering
cholesterol. It is helpful in the management of arthritis, rheumatism,
certain skin disorders, and can relieve pain and inflammation. Studies have
shown it can increase the release of sex hormones and thereby improve
reproductive health.
IRON
Necessary for hemoglobin and myoglobin (a type of hemoglobin found in muscle
tissue). It is necessary for the oxygenation of red blood cells. Iron helps
in protein metabolism and promotes growth. Iron is also necessary for energy
production and a healthy immune system. Iron deficiency can cause weakness,
anemia, digestive disturbances, fragile bones and hair loss.
L METHIONINE
An essential amino acid that is not synthesized by the body and must be
obtained from food or supplements. It is a powerful antioxidant and a good
source of sulfur, which neutralizes free radicals and helps prevent skin,
coat and nail problems. It can help to detoxify harmful agents such as lead
and other heavy metals found in airborne pollutants. L Methionine is
essential for the absorption, transportation and bioavailability of selenium
and zinc in the body. It also acts as a liptropic agent to prevent excess
fat buildup in the liver, and can help to reduce fatigue. It is useful in
some allergy cases because it reduces histamine release.
Recent studies show L Methionine supplementation may help delay the
development of age-related cataracts. Deficiencies in L Methionine can slow
growth and cause low levels of essential proteins in the blood. Lack of it
can result in edema, liver damage, loss of muscle and fat, skin lesions and
weakness. (Canine formula)
MAGNESIUM
Acts as a catalyst in the utilization of carbohydrates, fats, protein,
calcium, phosphorus, and potassium. It is important for energy and healthy
maintenance of bones, teeth, arteries, heart and nerves. Research has shown
that magnesium can help prevent cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and
certain forms of cancer.
MANGANESE
An enzyme activator that plays an important part in tissue respiration and
carbohydrate and fat metabolism. Necessary for normal skeletal development
and to maintain sex-hormone production. Manganese deficiency can lead to
paralysis, convulsions, dizziness, deafness and blindness.
OYSTER SHELL
Extremely rich in calcium, the major constituent in the structural framework
of bones. Practically every cell in the body, notably those in the heart,
nerves, and muscles rely on calcium to function properly. Some experts
recommend higher levels of calcium in order to prevent bone loss. The heart
requires calcium to maintain a normal beat. Muscles need it for contraction
and relaxation, and calcium is essential for blood clotting and proper
nervous system function.
Over time, if not enough calcium is consumed, the body takes calcium from
the bones to keep the heart and muscles working properly. This process will
gradually weaken the bones until they break easily. (All oyster shell used
in our product is farm-raised and tested for lead content.)
PAPAIN
Fundamentally aids in the digestion of protein. Papain’s activity helps to
cleanse the tissues and intestinal walls. The unique ability of Papain to
break down protein and convert a portion of it into Arginine is extremely
important because Arginine, in its natural form, has been found to influence
the production of HGH. HGH, produced in the pituitary gland, is directly
responsible for DNA and RNA replication as well as synthesis in liver,
muscle, cartilage, and adipose tissues. HGH helps to increase muscle tone
and decrease body fat. Arginine has also been found to inhibit the growth of
breast cancer cells in test tube studies.
PHOSPHORUS
Works with calcium to build bones and teeth. Aids the body in the
utilization of vitamins, and conversion of food to energy. Deficiencies of
phosphorus can lead to loss of weight and appetite, irregular breathing,
pyorrhea, fatigue and nervous disorders.
PINE BARK
The proanthocyanidids in Pine Bark have been shown in clinical studies to be
20 times more effective than Vitamin C and 50 times more effective than
Vitamin E as an antioxidant. Pine Bark helps relieve pain and symptoms of
osteoarthritis, arthritis, rheumatism, and rheumatic fever. It has been
shown to reduce histamine production, thereby helping the lining of arteries
resist mutagen attacks which cause cardiovascular disease.
Pine Bark’s remarkable ability to “seek and destroy” free radicals is a
tremendous benefit to the health of our animals. By reducing oxidative
damage to cells and vital tissues, what we recognize as aging (stiff joints,
wrinkled skin, degenerative disease problems like arthritis, circulatory
disorders, diabetes, heart disease, etc.) is held to a subdued rate. In
addition, unlike virtually all other dietary antioxidants, proanthocyanidids
readily cross the blood-brain barrier to protect vital brain and nerve
tissue from oxidation.
POTASSIUM (CITRATE)
Important for a healthy nervous system and regular heart rhythm. Helps
prevent strokes, aids in proper muscle contraction, and works with sodium to
control the body’s water balance. Potassium is important for chemical
reactions within the cells, aids in maintaining stable blood pressure and
proper transmission of electro-chemical impulses. It also regulates the
transfer of nutrients through cell membranes. Signs of potassium deficiency
include abnormally dry skin, weakness, paralysis, low blood pressure, and
irregular heartbeat which can lead to cardiac arrest and death.
SELENIUM
An essential trace mineral whose principal function is to inhibit the
oxidation of lipids (fats). It is a vital antioxidant, especially when
combined with Vitamin E. It protects the immune system by preventing the
formation of free radicals. It has also been found to function as a
preventative against the formation of certain types of tumors. Selenium and
Vitamin E act synergistically to aid in the production of antibodies and
help maintain a healthy heart and liver. Selenium deficiency has been linked
to cancer and heart disease. It has also been associated with exhaustion,
growth impairment, high cholesterol levels, infections, liver impairment,
pancreatic insufficiency, and sterility.
SHARK CARTILAGE
Contains collagen and glycosaminoglycans. This combination makes shark
cartilage a powerful anti-inflammatory wound-healing agent that is non-toxic
and has no known side-effects. It is also an effective substance against
bacteria, virus and fungal infections, which stimulates the cellular and
humoral components of our immune system.
There have been numerous studies demonstrating the ability of shark
cartilage to shrink some cancerous tumors, including those unaffected by
standard treatments. In order to grow, a tumor must establish its own blood
vessel network for nourishment. Like all other living things, if the tumor
is denied nourishment, it will die. Studies performed at the Massachusetts
Institute for Technology have shown that shark cartilage contains a protein
that impedes the formation of blood vessels to tumors.
TAURINE
One of the most abundant amino acids in the body. It is found in the central
nervous system, skeletal muscle, and highly concentrated in the brain and
heart.
Taurine therapy is used in the treatment of ischemic heart disease. Low
Taurine and magnesium levels have been found after heart attacks.
Supplements decrease the tendency to develop potentially lethal abnormal
arrhythmia after heart attacks.
Another role played by Taurine is maintaining the correct composition of
bile and solubility of cholesterol. It helps stabilize cell membranes and
seems to have some antioxidant and detoxifying activity. It also helps the
movement of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells,
which helps generate nerve impulses. Taurine is necessary for chemical
reactions that produce normal vision. Deficiencies are associated with
retinal degeneration and age-related cataracts.
(Feline formula only; canines produce their own Taurine.)
VITAMIN A
See Beta-Carotene.
VITAMIN B COMPLEX
Necessary for carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. Helps the
functioning of the nervous system; maintains muscle tone in the
gastrointestinal tract; maintains the health of skin, coat, eyes, mouth and
liver. Contains folic acid.
VITAMIN B1 (THIAMINE)
Essential for normal functioning of the heart, nerves, muscles, skin and
digestive system. Necessary for carbohydrate metabolism.
VITAMIN B2 (RIBOFLAVIN) Necessary for carbohydrate-fat-protein metabolism,
and antibody and red blood cell formation. Good for healthy eyes, skin, and
coat.
VITAMIN B3 (NIACIN)
Promotes growth, proper functioning of the nervous system, maintenance of
healthy skin, tongue, digestive system, and carbohydrate-fat-protein
metabolism.
VITAMIN B5 (PANTOTHENIC ACID)
Assists in the release of energy from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
Aids in the utilization of some vitamins, stimulates growth, and aids in the
formation of antibodies.
VITAMIN B6 (PYRIDOXINE)
Necessary for carbohydrate-fat-protein metabolism, antibody and red blood
cell formation, and aids in digestion. B6 also helps maintain balance of
sodium and phosphorus.
VITAMIN B12
Essential for normal formation of red blood cells, carbohydrate-fat-protein
metabolism, and good appetite. B12 maintains fertility, promotes normal
growth and development, and prevents nerve damage by maintaining the fatty
sheaths that protect nerve endings.
VITAMIN C (ESTER C™)
A powerful antioxidant that also protects other antioxidants such as Vitamin
E. The cells of the brain and spinal cord, which frequently incur free
radical damage, can be protected by significant amounts of Vitamin C. In
addition to its role as an antioxidant, Vitamin C also increases the
synthesis of Interferon, a natural anti-viral substance produced by the
body, and stimulates the activity of certain key immune cells. Vitamin C is
a key factor in many immune functions, including white blood cell function
and Interferon levels. Due to its antioxidant properties, it combats the
effects of free radicals while lowering the risk of cataracts and promoting
cell growth and tissue repair.
VITAMIN E
An essential fat-soluble vitamin that includes eight naturally occurring
compounds, and each of these compounds exhibit different biological
activities. The most widely accepted biological function of Vitamin E is
related to its antioxidant activities. Vitamin E is the most effective chain
breaking lipid-soluble antioxidant in the biological membrane. It
contributes to membrane activity, protecting critical cellular structures
against damage from oxygen free radicals.
Deficiencies in Vitamin E may lead to reproductive failure, nutritional
“muscular dystrophy,” hemolytic anemia, and neurological and immunological
abnormalities.
WHEY PROTEIN
The importance of protein in any carnivore’s diet cannot be understated, for
it is critical in building and maintaining muscle mass and other necessary
metabolic functions. Protein deficiencies can lead to retarded skeletal and
muscle growth and a weakened immune system, which causes susceptibility to
infections and degenerative diseases. (Feline formula)
ZINC
Zinc is a component of almost one hundred enzymes involved in metabolic
processes, most of which work with the red blood cells to move carbon
dioxide from the tissue to the lungs. Zinc, functioning as an important
antioxidant, promotes normal growth and development, aids in wound-healing,
enhances cell division, repair and growth, and maintains normal levels of
Vitamin A in the blood. It also helps to synthesize DNA and RNA. Zinc
deficiencies have been linked to prostate hypertrophy, cancer, slow recovery
from head injuries, diabetes, arthritis, and reduced immune system
responses.

There Are Two
Kinds of Pet Owners
1) One that reacts to their pet's sickness
2) One that prevents their pet from becoming sick to

According to Dr. George C Pack, MD, a
cancer specialist at Cornell Medical School;
"Almost everyone has
cancer cells present at times in our bodies. If our immune system is working
properly, these cells are killed or reabsorbed by our defense system before
they begin to grow and threaten our health. The only real defense
against cancer is the immune system." Our pets are no
diffrent.

There are By and Large Two Reasons a Dog
will get cancer
1)
Your pet has a toxin present
2) Your pet has a
low immune system from eating only the food you give him
--------
In an effort to educate you on the
dangers of a low immune system
in your pet and how a low
immune system will shorten your pets life,
I have dedicated this page to add a
viable proven solution to the devastating effects of your pet eating just food without
the addition of
NATURAL supplementation with every morning meal.
Once added every day to your pets daily
diet, YOUR PET WILL live a healthier and
happier life..
It works for our Golden's.. It will
work for your Pets too.
THINK OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM LIKE THE
FOUNDATION OF A HOUSE
Sure your
house would be cheaper without the expense of a foundation but at what cost
down the road? Without a firm, solid foundation, your house will crumble in
a few short years and all the money you spent on that home will be LOST!.
Golden
Retrievers are no different. Sure you can feed
your pet food without adding specifically needed supplementation but
at what cost down the road? My good friends, your beloved pet cannot speak
to you and tell you he/she needs additional Natural nutrients every day to stay
healthy, they are solely dependent on you!
"Pet Longevity is not an accident, nor is it
the color of the hair or a stroke of luck,
Longevity must be learned and

Processed Animal food
and the Immune System
Most All dog and cat foods, even
the best of Holistic brands Dog
foods, have been heat treated to kill
E-Coli and Salmonella bacteria before
packaging. Thereby
rendering the NATURAL heat sensitive NUTRIENTS completely destroyed
in their packaged products. The
Vitamins listed on the package of even the best of processed dog foods,
(often referred to as "Fortified with vitamins") are synthesized
vitamins in a
laboratory DEVOID OF all natural vitamins
that contain CO-FACTORS found in Nature . All packaged and canned pet
foods contain
Synthesized vitamins that are manufactured in a laboratory derived from
the by-product of Fossil fuels! It is the very cheapest way for the
manufacturer to still comply with the law and stay competitive on the store
shelf.. These synthesized vitamins are only partially understood by the body
of your pet for a very, very short time. After two or three weeks
your pet's body passes them through. It is after this time when your pet's
health and immune system begins it's slow decline. Feeding your Pet this
processed food alone will not supply him/her with the
nutrition needed for a high immune system there-by leaving your loving pet
open for sickness, disease and possibly cancer 73% of the time between three
and ten years old. Your
medical bills will be staggering. Without a Natural whole
complex supplementation along with your pet's meal, your pet will become immune deficient.
That's right. It is as simple as that.
Cooking
your own meals for your dog will NOT give your pet a strong immune system to
defend himself against cancer and disease.
You are doing essentially the same thing to your dog's food as the
manufactures do before they package their food in a bags.
By cooking it, you will have destroyed any important nutrients once in
the food, thereby rendering the food you have just prepared for your pet
nutrient deficient. That being said, a raw diet is better but lacks the
nutrients for a strong enough immune system.
---------
THE LURE OF SYNTHETIC VITAMINS
Man made synthetic supplements are a combination of some of the separate
factors, never the whole complex of synergistic factors found in nature.
The whole family of B, C or E vitamins is known as a "complex". Synthetic
vitamins may cause improvement of certain conditions for a short time but
the whole complex goes even further. It is now believed that the "unknown"
co-factors found in natural vitamins, not found in synthetic forms, act as
catalysts which make the vitamins MUCH more effective. The reason why synthetic
vitamins are so popular is because they are easier and cheaper to
manufacture in a lab from petroleum products than to grow and harvest from
crops.
Are the synthetic vitamins your dog is getting from
his/her dog food causing deficiencies?
Research indicates that synthetic
vitamins may actually cause nutritional deficiencies. When your pet takes
the
synthetic vitamins found in ALL commercial pet food, it needs the co-factors normally found in the whole food,
in order to complete its action. If they are not in the foods they eat, it
will draw the co-factors from their body. Your pets may feel good for a while but
when the co-factors run out, they will begin to feel worse. The prolonged
action of the synthetics imitates the action of drugs; they over-stimulate
rather than feed their body. Science does not even come close to duplicating
nature. Many illnesses, pain and suffering are the result of our pet
owner dietary
ignorance.
Synthetic vitamins will never have the effects of natural
vitamins simply because they are missing many parts of the whole complex
found in Nature.
Give their body what it needs, and your pet's body will make everything else from that. To
sustain good health, their cells must have all the elements they need to
perform the jobs of growth and tissue repair. Their body does
not need hundreds of vitamins and minerals in order to maintain itself It
seems that every month a new miracle vitamin is being touted. Each cell in
Their body requires certain nutrients to maintain its basic metabolic
function and keep healthy. Their body will manufacture everything else from
these basic building blocks.
A word about labels.
Many consumers are confused by the labels. Many labels say "Natural" or
"Food based" or "Organic". "Natural" is a term used very loosely. Many
things are natural but they may not be ideal for Canine consumption. Food based simply means that it started with a food product
(such as a carrot) but the rest of it was synthesized in a lab. And if the
carrot was organic, then they can also add the word "Organic" to the label.
One way to tell if a product is synthetic is to use the word potencies. In
reality, high concentrations have nothing to do with potency. A 10,000 mg
capsule of Vitamin C may not necessarily be potent at all! Remember, you
will never see those concentrations or combinations in nature. They simply
do not exist like that except in a bottle manufactured in a lab.
This is why you need specific Natural supplements every day
along with your Pet's food every day.
Facts Regarding Synthetic vs. Natural Vitamins
