Vetri-Liver Canine Bite-Sized Chews

Vetri Liver Canine

Vetri-Science® Laboratories' Vetri-Liver Canine contains 15 synergistic ingredients in a highly palatable chicken liver flavored soft chew to support fat metabolism, antioxidant protection, glutathione and SAMe production, and methylation pathways, as well as both phases of normal liver detoxification. Phase I detoxification neutralizes unwanted chemicals by converting toxins like drugs, hormones, pesticides, pollutants, food additives into less harmful substances and producing free radicals in the process. Nutrients that support this process are B vitamins, vitamin E, folic acid, and glutathione. Phase II detoxification removes unwanted substances from the body by converting them into water-soluble chemicals that can be easily excreted via bile and urine. Ingredients that support phase II processes include glutathione cysteine and turmeric. Phase II is also called the conjugation pathway because this is where the liver cells add another substance (cysteine, glycine or a sulphur molecule) to a toxic chemical or drug to make it less harmful. It's during this process that free radicals are generated which, if excessive, can damage the liver cells. Important ingredients in Vetri-Liver include: Gluta-Syn to support the production of glutathione and normal detoxification of the liver; dimethylglycine to support glutathione, SAMe, and sulfur based amino acid production, and to support the immune system; betaine (TMG) to support the production of DMG, glutathione and methylation of homocysteine to methionine; N-acetyl cysteine for antioxidant support, sulfur donation and for glutathione production; milk thistle to support glutathione levels and normal liver detoxification; turmeric to support liver and gall bladder function by supporting the flow of bile; artichoke leaf extract to help normalize liver metabolism and support bile flow; zinc to act as an antioxidant; and B, A and E vitamins to protect the liver from free radicals and support methylation processes.
