Heart Health Powder For Animal Health

ThorneVet Heart Health combines the antioxidant potential of CoQ10 with other cardio-protective nutrients and botanicals. Because Heart Health promotes oxygen utilization it enhances the animal's physical stamina.

• CoQ10 promotes the utilization of oxygen in the heart and helps maintain the health of the muscular tissue of the heart (the myocardium).
• The amino acid L-carnitine promotes cellular energy production in the mitochondria and supports heart muscle metabolism.
• Magnesium supports vascular smooth muscle tone.
• Unlike humans and dogs, cats are unable to synthesize the amino acid taurine, so it must be supplemented.
• Gluten-free
• NASC Member

According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, one in 10 dogs has less than optimal cardiovascular health. Heart Health combines the unique antioxidant and cardio-protective qualities of CoenzymeQ10 (CoQ10) with the amino acid taurine, whose support for healthy cardiac function in cats is well established. In addition, other ingredients in Heart Health include L-carnitine, which has been shown to improve appetite and exercise tolerance in dogs; vitamin E, which provides essential antioxidant activity in all tissues including the heart; and magnesium and potassium, which are necessary for healthy cardiac contractility and for maintaining a healthy heart rhythm. Three botanical ingredients - Crataegus laevigata (hawthorn extract) and Terminalia arjuna (arjuna extract), which contribute to healthy heart muscle function, and Eleutherococcus senticosus (eleuthero root extract), an adaptogen that supports physical stamina - are also included in the Heart Health powder formula.
