Fish oil has shown positive benefits in helping pets with disease. Fatty acids are among the most commonly used nutritional supplements used in treating dogs and cats.
Fish oil is good for dogs – and cats! Veterinarians first used
omega-3 fatty acids in the form of fish oil to treat canine
allergies but now recommend it for a wide variety of conditions
ranging from kidney disease to arthritis and high cholesterol.
Adding fish oil to your pet's food provides anti-inflammatory
effects and can help relieve itching and scratching an
allergy-related skin conditions.
Fish Oil and Healthy Pets
In research studies, fish oil has shown positive benefits in helping pets with disease. Fatty acids are among the most commonly used nutritional supplements used in treating dogs and cats. Fortunately, they have been used successfully long enough that most conventional veterinarians include their usage in the treatment of at least some diseases. Though some pet diets may include Omega-3 fatty acids, virtually none include satisfactory amounts of the most important Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. Many pet foods contain primarily Omega-6 fatty acids from vegetable oils resulting in a highly unbalanced ratio of Omega-6s to Omega-3s. Research has shown that a ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 of 5:1 to 10:1 is optimal for dogs and cats and therefore supplementing with a high quality Omega-3 fish oil supports pet health.
Omega 3 oils support heart, vision and joint health, provide important nutrients for proper immune function, and nourish the skin and coat. First suggested for use in treating allergies in pets, they are now advocated in cases of kidney disease, elevated cholesterol, and arthritis as well. Veterinarians are discovering that fatty acids can be valuable for a variety of conditions. Fish oil supplementation may be helpful for pets with inflammatory diseases including allergies, arthritis, kidney disease, heart disease, and cancers. Pets with any type of inflammatory disease may benefit from fish oil supplementation. In general, more severe disease requires doses higher than those commonly recommended.
Your dog is at risk for heart
problems if his teeth develop a
lot of tartar and gingivitis. The bacteria in the
plaque and tartar can enter the
bloodstream and attach to the
heart valves. This can cause
valve problems and congestive
heart failure. This is one of
the most important reasons to
take care of your
dog's teeth.
Fish oil is very effective
in some pets with allergies and skin disease. It is easy
to administer
(via gel caps or liquid) and can reduce the amount of
corticosteroid or antihistamine needed to control
itching.
Most pets take either form
well. For pets that are difficult to "pill," the liquid
form is quite popular. Owners of dogs and cats 20 pounds
and under find the liquid form more cost effective than
the large
bottle of fatty acid capsules that we
prescribe.
The
response is variable in other diseases (such as kidney
disease) but fish oil appears effective in research
studies. In pets with some types of cancer, fish oil has
slowed down the growth and spread of the cancer. While
more studies are needed on other types of
cancer, the
general recommendation is to add fish oil to the diets
of all pets with cancer.
As with
other supplements, the use of fatty acids often allows
doctors to lower the dosages
of drugs such as corticosteroids or antihistamines.
Choosing a
high quality Omega-3 fish oil supplement
with
exceptional purity and freshness, as well as, high
levels of Omega-3s is key
to supporting pet health.
Now it's
time to give our pets the benefits of the tremendous
healing
properties of
fish oil.
We know intuitively that our pets enrich our lives, so it is not surprising that a growing number of scientific studies are demonstrating the positive effects that animals can have on human health and development. Here is just a partial list of the health benefits of pet ownership, as reported by the Delta Society, a non-profit foundation that promotes research on the bond between humans and their animals:
-
Pet owners have lower blood pressure. (Friedmann,
1983, Anderson 1992)
-
Pet owners have lower triglyceride and cholesterol
levels than non-owners. (Anderson, 1992)
-
Pet owners have better psychological well-being. (Serpel,
1990)
-
Seniors who own dogs go to the doctor less than
those who do not. In a study of 100 Medicare
patients, even the most highly stressed dog owners
had 21 percent fewer physician contacts than
non-dog owners. (Siegel, 1990)
-
Contact with pets develops nurturing behavior in
children who may grow to be more nurturing
adults. (Melson, 1990)
-
Having a pet may decrease heart attack mortality by
3%. This translates into 30,000 lives saved annually
in the U.S. alone. (Friedman, 1980)
-
Children's cognitive development can be enhanced by
owning a pet. (Poresky, 1988)
-
Children owning pets are more involved in activities
such as sports, hobbies, clubs or chores.
(Melson, 1990)
-
Children exposed to pets during the first year of
life have a lower frequency of allergic rhintis and
asthma. (Hesselmar, 1999)
-
Autistic children with pets are more highly
socialized and are less self-absorbed. (Redefer,
1989)
Given the strong emotional bonds between humans and animals, it is not surprising that many of us will do almost anything to secure the health and well-being of our pets. According to estimates from the most recent National Pet Owners’ Survey, Americans in 2005 will spend $17 billion on veterinary care and medicine, and those costs are rising sharply.
It is an accepted medical fact that the same treatments are often found to be equally effective in both humans and animals. In fact, the US Food and Drug Administration reports that, since the passage of the Animal Medicinal Drug Use Clarification Act of 1994 (AMDUCA), it has been legal for veterinarians to treat pets with human drugs that have not been approved for animals. Fish oil, of course, is not a drug. Adding it to your pet’s food may very well be one of the best things you can do to help your animal companion to fight infections and to defend against debilitating chronic ailments. With fish oil, you will also know that the benefits you see are real.

How Quickly Will My Pet Benefit From Omega 3
Supplements? |
While the pet begins benefiting quickly, you may not notice a difference for 3-4 months. The pet’s body will change from the inside out—first the individual cells, then tissues, then organs. Gradually you’ll notice the coat and skin become more radiant. When you see this, you’ll know the internal organs, including the kidneys, liver, heart, and brain, are also experiencing more radiant health.
Because fats are an expensive component of pet foods, many commercial foods do not contain high levels, especially of the Omega 3 fatty acids. Most pets benefit from fatty acid supplements. We recommend SeaLogix Ultra Refined Pharmaceutical Grade Fish Oil
We have no one but ourselves to blame for the toxic contaminants found in fish oil. These toxins include mercury (from the burning of coal), PCBs (used in electrical insulation), and dioxins (the active ingredient in defoliants used in the Vietnam War). Although production of PCBs and dioxins has long been banned, they rarely break down and thus accumulate in the marine food chain that ends with fish. These toxins are known carcinogens and neurotoxins. In fact, the levels in the Eskimo population, who consume large amounts of fatty fish rich in EPA and EPA, are well above the safety standards set by the World Health Organization (WHO), and recent studies indicate that they are approaching the upper limits of safety in the Japanese population.
Here lies the dilemma - how to remove these toxins to obtain all the tremendous health benefits of EPA and DHA. The solution was the development of a new manufacturing process for producing ultra refined EPA/DHA concentrates.
If you or someone you know is using a fish oil that is not tested by an independent laboratory for concentration, purity and stability, it's buyer beware. Ask the manufacturer of that fish oil what it is trying to hide. It's one thing to print pharmaceutical-grade on a label, it's quite another to actually make a truly "pharmaceutical grade ultra refined" fish oil.
It's very difficult to remove the toxins out in fish oil. That's why most fish oils sold in health-food stores and supermarkets should be considered the "sewer of the sea." Since the contaminants in fish are oil-soluble, all the toxic contaminants are concentrated in the crude fish oil. Not a very appealing thought if you are taking fish oil for its "health" benefits. Obviously, all crude fish oil is highly contaminated. If you do some minimal processing, you can get rid of the mercury, but not the PCBs and dioxins. This minimally processed product is what you get when you purchase inexpensive brands of fish oil. In other words, you will also be ingesting a good dose of PCBs and dioxins. Slightly more expensive fish oils are given a "touch-up" via crude distillation to remove some of the cholesterol and slight amounts of the remaining toxins, but the EPA and DHA concentration is low. Therefore, to get an adequate dose of these critical long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, you have to consume large amounts of fish oil and, thus, large amounts of toxic contaminants. If you break apart the fatty acids to make ethyl esters, then it is possible to concentrate the oils to higher levels, but the PCBs and dioxins still remain.
The solution to this apparently "no-win" situation is true molecular distillation that removes the ethyl esters of EPA and DHA from the fish oil, leaving behind the toxic contaminants. This finally produces rise to ultra refined EPA/DHA concentrates like SeaLogix.
SeaLogix Ultra Refined Pharmaceutical Grade Fish Oil
Now the full spectrum of health benefits of EPA and DHA for pets can be realized without the toxins that limit long-term use with maximum compliance.
