Give Your Dog’s Health A Boost With Denamarin.

by Rebecca Foxton

We don’t need to tell you the liver is one of the most important organs in the body and also one of the most extraordinary.

Without liver function all animals die; and quickly.

Of all the major organs in the body, the liver is physically the largest, and is instrumental in the body’s metabolism.

Think of it as a kind of storage / disposal unit, as it stores glycogen and gets rid of toxins and red blood cells.

Hence you can see why the liver is essential for survival, and it needs to be healthy in order to function well and do the job it was meant to do.

This is the case in all vertebrates, including dogs and cats.

Did you know that the liver can grow back if part is cut out?

But it needs to be healthy to do this, if it is not in a good environment it may cease working, and death will quickly follow.

Chronic disease can also afflict the liver. But let’s talk about dogs in particular and how their livers can be affected. Don’t forget too that the liver can be affected by disease.

Dogs can suffer from a disease similar to cirrhosis, which is known as Chronic Active Hepatitis. It is not known what sparks this disease off but the effects on the liver can be devastating.

What happens is that a flood of antibodies are produced by the body and these affect the liver cells, making them tough and fibrous and therefore making it harder for the blood to feed the liver.

Toxic compounds exacerbate the problem, and if left unchecked liver failure can result.

Doberman Pinschers, Cocker Spaniels and certain terriers are predisposed to this disease.

Of course cancers and hepatitis can also take control of the liver.

Nutramax Denamarin with SAMe for dogs has been specially formulated to stimulate healthy liver processes by encouraging the production of a powerful antioxidant, glutathione.

It contains S-Adenosylmethionine SAMe and silybin, the former of which increases levels of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant.

SAMe also prevents cell death in the liver and is thought to aid in the repair and regeneration of the liver.

The benefits are two-fold as a healthy liver will eradicate toxins from the body much more speedily.

In this way the functioning of the liver will help the body get rid of toxins therefore reducing the chance of disease.

Manufactured in three strengths for different sizes of dog, Denamarin is a vital component to protecting your dog’s health, and it’s reasonably priced for something that could protect his major organs.

Doesn’t it make sense?
