247.556 | EPA | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=247556 | publish | EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) is a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid crucial for producing signaling molecules called eicosanoids, which help regulate inflammation and other critical biological processes. |
 |
248.977 | ALA | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=248977 | publish | ALA (Alpha-linolenic Acid) is a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid and a precursor to EPA and DHA, the more bioactive long-chain omega-3s. Although ALA can be converted into EPA and DHA, the process is inefficient in dogs, making direct sources of EPA and DHA more beneficial. |
 |
248.976 | DHA | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=248976 | publish | DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) is a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid essential for maintaining cell membrane structure, particularly in the brain and eyes. It also plays a key role in supporting cognitive function and reducing inflammation at the cellular level. |
 |
261.286 | Inulin | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=261286 | publish | Inulin is a naturally occurring soluble fiber and prebiotic found in plants like chicory root and Miscanthus grass. It bypasses digestion in the small intestine, reaching the colon where it feeds beneficial gut bacteria, supporting a healthy microbiome, improved digestion, and stool quality in dogs. |
|
261.287 | Bromelain | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=261287 | publish | Bromelain is a natural enzyme complex derived from pineapple, valued for its ability to break down proteins and reduce inflammation. In dogs, it supports digestive health by aiding protein digestion and nutrient absorption while also promoting joint health and recovery from injuries. |
|
261.288 | Papain | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=261288 | publish | Papain is an enzyme derived from papaya that aids in protein digestion. In dog supplements, it supports gastrointestinal health and may help soothe digestive upset. |
|
261.289 | Lipase | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=261289 | publish | Lipase is a digestive enzyme that breaks down dietary fats into glycerol and free fatty acids. For dogs, it ensures efficient fat digestion, promoting energy and supporting skin and coat health. |
|
261.291 | Vitamin K2 | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=261291 | publish | Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for calcium regulation and bone health. It supports the activation of proteins that prevent calcium buildup in arteries while directing it to bones, enhancing skeletal strength and cardiovascular health in dogs. |
|
261.292 | Boron | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=261292 | publish | Boron is a conditionally-essential trace mineral that supports bone health by enhancing calcium transport, improving osteoblast activity, and promoting the regeneration of soft tissue proteins like collagen. It also aids muscle health and regulates key vitamins and minerals like Vitamin D and magnesium, contributing to overall skeletal and joint health in dogs. |
|
261.293 | Curcumin | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-compound&p=261293 | publish | Curcumin is a polyphenol derived from turmeric with potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It supports joint health, immune function, and overall well-being in dogs, often combined with piperine to improve absorption and efficacy. |
