Nu-Vet Plus Ingredients
Alfalfa
Alfalfa (Canines only) 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.
Alpha Amylase
Alpha Amylase is a soluble fiber digestant. We believe NuVet 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 NuVet Plus™'
powerful antioxidant capabilities.
Beta Carotene
Beta Carotene is converted into Vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is essential to
skeletal growth, testicular and ovarian function, embryonic development and
differentiation of tissues. It is crucial for the formal functioning of the eyes and
possible reduction of cataracts. Studies have shown the use of Beta Carotene
reduces cancerous tumors in animals.
Blue Green Algae
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
Brewer's Yeast is a balanced natural source of B-Complex vitamins. (See
Desiccated Liver) Studies show that another beneficial effect of brewers yeast
supplementation is that it significantly reduces the number of fleas.
Cat's Claw
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. Research in
different countries including Germany, Austria, England, and Hungary has shown
that Cats 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.
Desiccated Liver]
Desiccated Liver contains B-Complex vitamins. Vitamin B1 helps the body
metabolize carbohydrates and is known to strengthen the nervous system.
Vitamin B2 helps in digesting and assimilating fats, proteins and carbohydrates. It
is essential for proper enzyme formation, normal growth and tissue formation. B3
is believed to promote good physical and mental health. It helps the body
produce cortisone, insulin and female and male hormones. Vitamin B5 is found in
every living cell in the body. It helps with digestion and producing various
hormones. Vitamin B6 is essential for proper chemical balance in the body and
helps convert fats and proteins into useful energy. B6 is required to help produce
red blood cells. Vitamin B9 is important to the entire nervous system. Iron, found
in liver, is a necessary metal required to combat anemia and to maintain healthy
blood values. B12 maintains the health of all body cells by production of nucleic
acid. It also helps preserve nerve tissue and enhances blood formation and the
production of DNA and RNA.
Evening Primrose Oil
Evening Primrose Oil is high in gamma linolenic acid (GLA) an essential
polyunsaturated fatty acid that is converted into prostaglandin. Evening Primrose
Oil is a digestive stimulant, and decreases the tendency of the blood to clot.
Recent studies have shown it to be of value in the management of arthritis and
rheumatism as well as exhibiting significant clinical improvements in certain skin
diseases.
L-Methionine
L-Methionine (Canines only) is an essential amino acid that is not synthesized by
the body and must be obtained from food or supplements. It improves the tone
and pliability of the skin, conditions the hair and strengthens nails. The mineral
sulfur, found in airborne pollutants, such as smog, slows down the aging process
in the cells, and is involved with the production of protein. L-Methionine is
essential for the absorption and transportation and bio-availability of selenium
and zinc in the body. It also acts as a lipotropic agent to prevent excess fat
buildup in the liver, and can help reduce fatigue and may be useful in some
cases of allergy because it reduces histamine release. Recent studies show LMethionine deficiencies may be associated with the development of age related
cataracts, and supplements may delay their development.
Deficiencies in L-Methionine have shown to slow growth in children, cause low
levels of essential proteins in the blood, edema, liver damage, loss of muscle and
fat, skin lesions and weakness.
Oyster Shell
Oyster Shell is extremely rich in calcium, the major constituent of 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 to clot, and for the nervous system
to function properly.
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 more easily.
Papain
Papain is one of the most powerful plant enzymes, and is a catalytic agent that
will act in protein digestion. Papain helps to cleanse the tissues and intestinal
walls of all waste matter in the form of excessive mucus and dead tissue. It is
harmless to living tissue and is a must for maintenance of health in the intestinal
tract. This unique ability of papain to break down protein and to convert a portion
of it into arginine is extremely important, because arginine in its natural form has
been found to influence the production of growth hormones produced in the
pituitary gland. Growth hormones are directly responsible for DNA and RNA
replication as well as synthesis in liver, muscle, cartilage and adipose tissues.
Growth hormones help to increase muscle tone and decrease the amount of
body fat. Arginine has also been found to inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells
in in vitro studies.
Pine Bark
Pine Bark, also known as Proanthocyanidid has the ability to inhibit the activity of
certain enzymes, which cause inflammation, and they function as a formidable,
highly potent antioxidant (free radical scavenger). The proanthocyanidids in pine
bark has 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 (Proanthocyanidid) helps relieve the 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 attack by
the mutagens that cause cardiovascular disease. In this way capillary integrity is
restored, circulation is improved and it becomes easier for each cell to get the
nutrients needed to function optimally.
Pine Bark's (Proanthocyanidid) remarkable ability to "seek and destroy" free
radicals is a tremendous boon to health. By reducing oxidative damage to cells
and vital tissue, what we recognize as aging: stiff joints, wrinkled skin, problems
with degenerative diseases such as arthritis, circulatory disorders, diabetes,
heart disease, etc., is held to a subdued rate. What's more, unlike virtually all
other dietary antioxidants, proanthocyanidids, readily crosses the blood brain
barrier to protect vital brain and nerve tissue from oxidation.
Potassium (Citrate)
Chelated Potassium (Citrate) is important for the proper functioning of muscles,
including the heart. Potassium is a crucial regulator of the amount of water in
cells, which determines their ability to function properly. It helps in the
transmission of nerve impulse, and is a buffer for body fluids and catalyzes the
release of energy from carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
Symptoms of Potassium deficiency include weakness, paralysis, low blood
pressure, and irregular or rapid heartbeat that can lead to cardiac arrest and
death. The loss of potassium ions can cause the body cells to function less
effectively and eventually die.
Selenium (Yeast)
Chelated Selenium (Yeast) is an essential trace mineral found in the soil in its
inorganic form. Plants and microorganisms convert selenium to naturally
chelated organic forms.
In recent studies selenium yeast was proven effective in producing consistent
elevations of blood selenium concentrations in a large-scale human intervention
trial, supported by the National Cancer Institute
Selenium supplements may help protect against cancers of the lung, colon,
rectum, and prostate. (The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).
12/24/96)
Larry C. Clark, M.P.H., Ph.D., from the Arizona Cancer Center, College of
Medicine, University of Arizona, Tucson, studied the effectiveness of selenium
supplementation for preventing cancers and for reducing cancer mortality. These
results indicate that when all cancers were studied, the selenium group had a 37
percent reduction in cancer incidence and a 50 percent reduction in cancer
mortality.
Shark Cartilage
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 that shark cartilage shrinks
some cancerous tumors, including those unaffected by standard treatments. 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 Massachusetts Institute of Technology have shown that Shark
cartilage contains a protein that impedes the formation of blood vessels to
tumors.
Taurine
Taurine (Felines only) is one of the most abundant amino acids in the body. It is
found in the central nervous system, skeletal muscle and is very 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
in maintaining the solubility of cholesterol. It helps to stabilize cell membranes
and seems to have some antioxidant and detoxifying activity. It helps the
movement of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells,
which helps generate nerve impulses.
Taurine is necessary for the chemical reactions that produce normal vision, and
deficiencies are associated with retinal degeneration and age-related cataracts.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is essential for the formation of collagen and fibrous tissue; for normal
intercellular matrices in teeth, bones, cartilage, connective tissue and skin, and
for the structural integrity of capillary walls. It aids in fighting bacterial infections,
interacts with other nutrients, and has been shown to protect the circulatory
system from fat deposits.
Vitamin C is a key factor in many immune functions, including white blood cell
function and interferon levels. Due to it's antioxidant properties it combats the
effects of free radicals while lowering the risk of cataracts and also promotes
growth and tissue repair. A large U.S. survey conducted by the National Center
for Health Statistics (NCHS) demonstrated a strong correlation between Vitamin
C intake and decreased mortality.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an essential fat-soluble vitamin that includes eight naturally
occurring compounds and each of these compounds exhibits different biological
activities. The most widely accepted biological function of vitamin E is related to
its antioxidant properties. Vitamin E is the most effective chain-breaking lipid-
soluble antioxidant in the biological membrane, where it contributes to membrane
stability. It protects 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.
Recent research has shown Vitamin E, through its antioxidant properties, can
significantly improve immune responses and reduced the risk for coronary heart
disease.
Whey Protein
Whey Protein (Felines only) The importance of protein supplementation (one of
the most important nutrients for animals) is critical for building and maintaining
muscle mass. Protein has been called "the building blocks of life" and they are
involved in virtually every body function. Many of the pet foods lack the digestible
protein your pet requires.
Protein deficiency can lead to retarded skeletal and muscle growth, a weak
immune system that causes susceptibility to infections and diseases, and also a
weakening of the bodies natural defense mechanism that protect against viruses
and bacteria.
Zinc, Dipeptide Chelate
Zinc, Dipeptide Chelate (Felines only) is a component of nearly a hundred
enzymes involved in major metabolic process, most of which work with the red
blood cells to move carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs. Zinc functions
as an important antioxidant, promotes normal growth and development, aids in
wound healing, enhances cell division, repair and growth: maintains normal
levels of vitamin A in the blood and helps synthesize DNA and RNA.
Zinc deficiencies have been linked to prostatic hypertrophy, cancer, and slow
recovery from head injuries, diabetes, arthritis and reduced immune system
processes. Alfalfa
Alfalfa (Canines only) 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.
