Properties per ingredient: Polyunsaturated fatty acids can be divided into two main families: the omega-3 family (alpha-linolenic acid group) and the omega-6 family (linoleic acid group). Because the animal body cannot produce these fatty acids itself, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids must be obtained through feed or supplementation. These essential fatty acids were formerly also called vitamin F.

In the 20th century, the ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids in the diet shifted significantly towards omega-6 fatty acids. The increasing use of vegetable oils and fats, which are rich in omega-6 fatty acids, stimulates the formation of arachidonic acid, at the expense of EPA and DHA. Arachidonic acid itself is abundant in the Western diet. It is estimated that the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in the Western diet is approximately 20-25:1. Researchers suggest that a ratio of approximately 5:1 is more desirable. Evolutionarily speaking, dogs (and their ancestors) consumed omega-6 and omega-3 in a ratio of (probably) 1:1 for millions of years.

The enzyme delta-6-desaturase regulates both the conversion of linoleic acid to DGLA and the conversion of ALA to (ultimately) EPA. An excess of linoleic acid means that ALA can hardly use the enzyme anymore, resulting in very little EPA and DHA being formed. This enzyme is already the slowest step in the chain, and its function is further inhibited by many dietary factors (including trans fats, saturated fats, zinc, magnesium and/or vitamin B6 deficiencies, alcohol) and metabolic factors (hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, certain medications). As a result, in Western societies, many animals can hardly form GLA and EPA themselves, and these fatty acids must therefore be supplied through the diet.

Dosage and application:
Unless otherwise prescribed by the doctor or therapist.
The optimal dosage is 1 time per day: (Gradually increase the dosage).
Dog 1 - 3 capsule(s)
Cat 1-2 capsule(s)

Instructions for use: In an acute situation, the dosage may be increased on the advice of a veterinarian. Initially, thin stool may occur when administering Omega-3 oil. Gradually increase the dosage if necessary.

Treatment duration
Omega-3 fatty acids are incorporated into cell membranes. This process takes several days to two weeks. The effect is usually visible after one to three weeks. After the symptoms have subsided, a maintenance dose can be given. This is usually half the dose indicated on the packaging. When dosing this product, pay close attention to the animal's reaction. Initially, a higher dose may be necessary; this product can be safely given at double the dose. Gradually reduce the dose as the symptoms subside or disappear, to the lowest possible dose. This product can be given continuously for chronic complaints.

Save
Store in the refrigerator after opening. The effectiveness of the polyunsaturated fatty acids may decrease when exposed to light and oxygen. Keep out of reach of children.

Synergy and combinations with other products
This product can be used without any problems in combination with other natural health products and conventional medicines.

Contraindications
No contraindications are known for the indicated dosage.

Side effects
When using high doses of fish oil (more than 5 grams of EPA + DHA per day), there is a risk of loose stools.

Interactions
Because omega-3 fatty acids have the property of preventing blood clotting, animals that use blood thinners, have a vitamin K deficiency, or use other medications that inhibit blood clotting (aspirin) may experience internal bleeding when using high doses of omega-3 fatty acids (more than 5 grams of EPA + DHA). In such cases, it is recommended to adjust the dosage. The effect on blood clotting by omega-3 fatty acids is maximal after 6 weeks of treatment.
