Canine Health Defense
The 42 active ingredients in Canine Health Defense support increased antioxidant production, free radical reduction, and lowered oxidative stress through cellular Nrf2 activation providing healthier eyes, heart, brain, and other internal organs. Science has shown that fewer damaging free radicals over time promote improved health and enhanced physical fitness with the goal of the longest and healthiest life possible.
Provides Proactive Ingredient Support For:
Free Radicals
Eye, Heart, & Brain Health
Oxidative Stress
Directions For Use
Dosages may be administered once a day or split and provided twice daily. Sprinkle product onto any canine diet. Mix in or moisten to make a tasty, protein rich broth. To assure freshness and avoid settling, shake periodically, keep sealed, and store in a cool, dry place. Whenever introducing a new animal health supplement to the diet, it is always best to start with half the recommended dosage for the first week.

BE ON THE DEFENSE WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR PET’S HEALTH
How Canine Health Defense Reduces Free Radicals & Oxidative Stress
The concept of defending pet health in order to create optimum health is based on what we can do to prevent the onset of serious health issues, delay the onset of age-related diseases and extend the number of healthy years we have to enjoy our best friends.
Science tells us that one of the greatest threats to an animal’s health is Oxidative Stress. Oxidative stress is the resultant imbalance between the daily production of free radicals, also known as Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), and the existing free radical scavenging capacity or antioxidant system capability of the dog and cat.
In order to understand what a free radical is and how it is formed a little background information is needed. Our pet’s bodies are made up of many different types of cells. Cells contain the structures that allow it to perform specific tasks vital to the health and well-being of the animal.
For Puppies
During the process of weaning and traveling to a new home, puppies can become stressed to the max. At this time, their antioxidant system is slowly developing and incapable of managing the amount of free radical attacks that occur daily. Additional antioxidant production provided by the proprietary Health Defense blend would be beneficial to overall health as it reduces harmful levels of oxidative stress.
For Adult Dogs
Starting around 1 year of age, antioxidant production in the dog reaches its peak and then begins to drop off as they reach their senior years. Unfortunately, there are many periods throughout a dog’s life where the safety threshold of protective antioxidant levels can be surpassed by an overwhelming number of free radicals. These periods can lead to premature cell death, potential disease, or a shorter life. The additional antioxidants made possible by Canine Health Defense would be useful at this time as they could reduce the harmful free radicals, thereby lowering overall oxidative stress levels and improving health and well-being.
For Senior Dogs
Senior life brings on a decline in natural antioxidant production while oxidative stress (the number of free radical attacks) increases. This phenomenon contributes greatly to the rapid aging and organ decline seen during a dog’s senior years. Protection is just a scoop away with Canine Health Defense – an Nrf2 triggering Animal Health Supplement that helps any dog produce millions of extra antioxidants when needed.
For Performance Dogs
Unfortunately, throughout life, there are many periods where the maximum threshold of antioxidant protection is surpassed. This can cause irreversible damage to critical organ systems. The ingredients found in Canine Health Defense are capable of producing millions of additional antioxidants via the Phase II Response – a well-documented gene survival system triggered by the transcription factor Nrf2. These additional antioxidants are able to neutralize the harmful free radicals, thus lowering the dog’s oxidative stress level. This process is also known for its ability to inhibit numerous disease-causing genes including many of the age-related diseases such as diabetes and cancer.

I often hear pet owners, pet food manufacturers and even veterinarians describe modern day canines as omnivores based solely on their being fed a diet consisting of both plant and animal matter. Few stop to think that today's domesticated dogs consume what we have decided is best for them.
Dogs evolved as carnivores, getting their nutrients from other animals. Their living conditions included fresh air, lots of exercise, sunlight, and grass and soils rich in trace minerals. Here's a biologically appropriate approach to your dog diet plan.
The best thing you can do to promote longevity is to ensure that your dog or cat is eating a biologically appropriate carnivore diet.
At birth, puppies and kittens only have partially functioning immune systems, which makes them more vulnerable to diseases as they are unable to protect themselves. To help protect them from dangerous diseases, maternal immunity is bestowed on the puppy or kitten in its mother’s “first milk”.

I love that this product has tons of natural ingredients and antioxidants in it! My dog is a breed that has a higher risk of cancer, so I use this as a preventative measure. So far, so good (any my dog loves the taste!)
