Supplements & Vitamins
Here's a list of some of the most commonly used supplements and their benefits. Please remember that while supplements can be beneficial for certain people, everyones nutritional needs are different. It's always a good idea to consult with a specialist before adding any new supplements to your routine, as individual needs may vary.
Multivitamin: Provides a range of essential vitamins and minerals to support overall health and fill potential nutrient gaps in your diet.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Promote heart health, brain function, and reduce inflammation. Typically derived from fish oil or algae.
Vitamin D: Supports bone health, immune function, and may have a positive impact on mood. It's commonly obtained through sun exposure, but supplements can be useful, especially in winter or for those with limited sun exposure.
Probiotics: Help promote a healthy gut microbiome, aiding digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune function.
Magnesium: Important for muscle and nerve function, bone health, and energy production. It may also help with relaxation and sleep.
B vitamins: Help convert food into energy, support brain function, and maintain healthy hair, skin, and nails.
Vitamin C: Boosts immune function, acts as an antioxidant, supports collagen production, and aids in iron absorption.
Zinc: Essential for immune function, wound healing, and cell division. It also supports normal growth and development during pregnancy, childhood, and adolescence.
Iron: Required for red blood cell production and oxygen transport. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia and fatigue, but it's essential to get iron levels checked before supplementing.
Calcium: Crucial for bone health and muscle function. It's often combined with vitamin D for better absorption.
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10): Plays a vital role in energy production within cells and acts as an antioxidant. It may benefit heart health and cellular energy metabolism.
Curcumin (Turmeric extract): Possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, potentially supporting joint health and cognitive function.
Ashwagandha: An adaptogenic herb that may help reduce stress, promote relaxation, and support cognitive function.
Green Tea Extract: Contains antioxidants and may support cardiovascular health, weight management, and cognitive function.
Glucosamine: Commonly used for joint health and may help alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis.
Chondroitin: Often taken alongside glucosamine, it may help reduce joint pain and improve joint mobility.
Probiotics for Gut Health: Certain strains of probiotics can help restore and maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria, supporting digestion and immune function.
Melatonin: A hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles, melatonin supplements can help with insomnia or jet lag.
Vitamin E: An antioxidant that supports immune function and may help protect against cellular damage.
Ginseng: An adaptogenic herb that may help increase energy, reduce stress, and support cognitive function.
Prebiotics: These are non-digestible fibers that promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, supporting gut health and digestion.
Magnesium: In addition to its previous benefits, magnesium may help reduce muscle cramps, improve mood, and promote relaxation.
Probiotics for Vaginal Health: Certain strains of probiotics can help maintain a healthy balance of vaginal flora, reducing the risk of infections.
Cranberry Extract: Often used for urinary tract health, cranberry extract may help prevent urinary tract infections.
Resveratrol: Found in grapes and berries, resveratrol has antioxidant properties and may support heart health and longevity.
L-theanine: An amino acid commonly found in green tea, L-theanine may promote relaxation, improve focus, and reduce anxiety.

I returned the obedience ring gates today, I could have had them for another couple of months but we won't be practicing obedience much for a while.
Aayla is sore again. She was a little sore a week or so ago, we took it easy and then I took her out for another easy, mostly flat hike (under 4 miles) and she started limping again after.
So she is now only doing 15-20 minute walks and on anti inflammatories. The only training she is doing is the scentwork stuff right now. I might wait until next year to freshen her up in obedience so she can finish her OTCh in March and then assess if we even try for her UDX with ASCA. (Needs 7 more 2Qs)
Seeing her sore and in pain makes me think not but I have to remind myself that she does have one bout of lameness every two years it seems like where she needs to take it easy for 6-8 weeks.
I really want to start her on Librela but money is so tight that we can't really spare the $100/month for extra vet care when she is mostly comfortable. I'm debating if I should get cheaper food, maybe stop the glucosamine supplements (which I've heard have been guessed to actually have no benefit with a recent study?) and then I could swing getting the Librela. I just don't know what combination will help her the most with the funds I do have.
Ryker has one more agility class I paid for a while ago, but he will be stopping classes until after Aayla is on Librela and I can afford his class after that. Heck I trained Aayla to do agility all on my own, I can get Ryker there too during this time.

Most GP vets I know recommend glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate supplementation for dog at risk of osteoarthritis. They're both precursors to substances naturally found in cartilage, and the general claim is that supplementation reduces joint inflammation and protects cartilage from damage. Typically these are sold under the names Cosequin or Dasuquin. They're very popular with dog owners, and very commonly sold by both pet stores and vets.
I just went to a talk on osteoarthritis by an orthopedic specialist, and she claimed that these supplements were a waste of money, because they're not very bioavailable. The molecules are too large to make it through the GI system intact, and don't get to the joints where they'd be useful. So they're promising in vitro but aren't clinically useful.
So, rather than take her word for it, I looked it up. I found a 2017 literature review on the subject. Their conclusions are so frustrating that I want to quote directly from the article:
"Despite the trend towards more stringent criteria for veterinary nutraceutical products, the research community continues to conduct and publish novel, low-quality studies without consistent evaluation methods and varying products/doses...
These results are of questionable validity due to several trial shortcomings. First is the absence of therapeutic standardization. The sources of active ingredients, manufacturers of products, formulations, combinations of active ingredients, treatment doses, regimens, and durations of therapy differed significantly between trials. Second, multiple potential sources of bias were present in the trials, including the lack of a standardized follow-up timeframe, unexplained loss to follow-up, flawed study protocols, and incomplete data sets. Moreover, all of the clinical trials relied on subjective outcome measures to some extent, and the absence of standardized owner and veterinarian assessments increased the risk of bias in the reported results and diminished internal study validity.
The trials generally lacked peer review and were at risk of funding bias due to company sponsorship. Finally, there was an overall lack of generalizability of trial results. The trials were small in terms of the number of subjects used and subject baseline characteristics were not always disclosed...
Based on the available literature, the potential benefits of glucosamine and chondroitin use in osteoarthritic canines can neither be confirmed nor denied."
We are still so far behind human medicine in terms of evidence-based medicine...and human medicine is already worse than you'd hope. It's maddening. So in conclusion, I have no idea whether Cosequin/Dasuquin is helpful at all, and neither does anyone else.

The pet insurance said that PT isn't covered and I'm numb from what it implies. I'm so scared, all of this because I forgot to click yes on something I wanted 6 months ago.
- They did say that treatment and medications with an orthopedic vetenerian would be covered, so I think I'm going to at least see them once, maybe they can give me advice on exercises and conditioning.
It's going to take me a while to save enough, but I'll try.
- I don't know if Elliot and Bean will use them, but I also want to get a car ramp (if they sell some for side doors), some stairs for getting on the bed and couch.
- The one that's going to be quite expensive, is going to be saving for PT (I'd like at least 1-3 sessions to gather knowledge) and covering the entire house in nonslip rugs or yoga mats.
- I'm going to get Elliot some safe-in-the-summer boots for store trips, work time, etc. It might take him a while to accept them, but I'll try. If he doesn't opt in to wear them, I'll look at alternatives.
- The vet recommended glucosamine supplements (there's no research confirming the benefit, but I figured it can't hurt) and to switch food, so we're doing that. Hills made a research about their joint food, so I might try that, but for now, I'm trying the more affordable one for a bit.
I wish so desesperatly that I could do more, but I'll at least try. I will try.

there's a certain kind of article on the internet that pisses me off so badly. it's written by a person with a surface-level understanding of the topic and little-to-no personal experience, who collates a few sources and then litters the information highway with yet another piece of trash
today's trash article is a discussion of bone broth.
my position on bone broth is that it has personally done a lot for my physical health, energy levels hair, skin and nails. but it matters a lot HOW i've been doing it. first, i've been cooking it myself, from organic bones, and with alcohol and certain kinds of vegetables, which increases the breakdown of the bones and release of nutrients in the water. second, I have been eating Mass Quantities, that is 1-2 bowls a day, with seaweed and other vegetable nutrients added, for almost 2 years now. the level of healing i've experienced is directly. proportional. to the amount and quality of the broth.
so it can help you. but you have to use quality ingredients, and invest time and energy into cooking it right, and you have to eat A LOT. and yes, many people don't have the time, resources and money etc, of course! so of course this can't help people who don't have the time, resources, money etc. this is not a cure all.
what makes me mad is the stupid black and white thinking the internet is prey to. like, if not everyone can benefit, then NO ONE can benefit. if vegans and vegetarians cannot benefit, then NO ONE can benefit. if poor and under-resourced people cannot benefit, then NO ONE can benefit. (the biggest of eye rolls)
and like, yes. people who don't beleive in eating animals exist. people with lack of access to resources exist. I feel a lot of compassion for both of these groups, but I can't! do anything! about their concerns! does that mean I am not supposed to share a method that CAN work for SOME people?
I myself am a former vegetarian. I've discovered that vegetarianism, combined with overwork and a lack of sleep, fucked my health right up. Do you know what I've found that fixed that? fucking bone broth. Is abandoning vegetarianism right for you??? maybe not! is bone broth right for you?? maybe not!! and that's okay!
so but, along comes this article which apparently is a gotcha about that bone broth is useless. which, if it were actually sourced from actual studies about actual bone broth, I might consider its arguments.
but you know what it actually argues?
that a) collagen supplements provide more and better collagen than bone broth, and b) you need the minerals from vegetables to make them available. Okay, but where do you think the fcuking collagen in supplements comes from? Fucking industrially produced fucking bone broth. just, y'know in giant factories, not in your kitchen, and reduced water content so it's a gell or a pill and not a soup. so what they're actually arguing is that industrially produced bone broth is better. which...okay, but that's bone broth. and it's true about the vegetables by the way, which is why you cook the fucking bones with vegetables when you make the broth, to make the bones more bioavailabile. So the recommendation here is actually: don't make bone broth yourself, take our pills and eat your salad like a good little girl.
that because proponents of bone broth tell you that glucosamine is one of the components of bone broth, and that glucosamine supplements don't work, therefore bone broth doesn't work. but we're not talking about fucking glucosamine supplements? we're talking about bone broth? which you haven't shown a study about the uselessness of?
then they're like, "okay, there's supposed to be protein and calcium in bone broth, but you can get more protein from other sources, and the calcium is actually very little, so you see, it's not very useful". you know what's very high in calcium? milk. do you know how bioavailable the calcium in milk is? Not Very! because you need magnesium to put calcium in the right places in your body. without magnesium, calcium ends up in your joints, causing stiffness and arthritic symptoms. magnesium signals calcium to go to the right places, your bones. If you cook bone broth right, with vegetables, then you have the magnesium to do the job right. but also, you have to drink a lot, on the daily. it's not like taking concentrated vitamins, it's broth, it's just soup, it's going to take greater quantities. Also the amount of daily calcium you need is not as much as milk ads have made people think.
here, all they say is they have no evidence to support that bone broth helps leaky gut syndrome. how and why does this merit its own number on their list? "Uh.....we got nothing, but we're going to make it a bullet point" okay there player
aaaaand this is the only point I agree with, because I'm also sick to fucking death of all of the claims of detoxing around. you can't detox your body. your liver does that shit. you can maintain your liver and kidney health to HELP them do that shit, but you can't eat stuff to do their job FOR them.
and so the article's grand conclusion? what they actually write is that maybe bone broth is okay, it's neutral. SO their main point is actually that bone broth is okay? Even though the tone of the article is trying to lead you to believe that it's a big scam, even though they have maybe one point that supports that?
so how is this article actually informing you in any way about the supposed failures of bone broth? all they're saying is that collagen supplements--industrially produced bone broth--is better than home-made, that glucosamine supplements are not bone broth, that bone broth doesn't have 'enough' calcium without discussing bioavailability and actual studies of the amount of calcium needed and the actual amount of bone broth required, they can't even back up their argument about gut health and they have to concede that it's still actually nutritious.
okay so that's your gotcha article.
Listen I understand that bone broth has become trendy, and i'm also sick to death of food trends that take off because they've been passed around the internet looking for the next big thing to promote. but articles like this are also fucking shady, because they're using false equivalencies and ad hominem and faint praise to do their takedown, instead of actual fucking facts and studies. it's just as lazy as all the next-food-trend promoters.
I just want the internet to actually be the accessible central repository of all human knowledge that we all think it is, is that too much to ask?

The Benefits Of Beauty And Health Supplements For Children, Seniors And Adults
Tumblr media
Many people believe that supplements can only be beneficial to adults and seniors. But the truth is that supplements benefit anyone of all ages, which includes children as well as seniors. The article will explore the beauty and health benefits for all age groups in this post.
Benefits of Children's Education
When children get older, they need specific nutrition. Supplements are an ideal way to ensure they are receiving all the nutrients they require for thriving. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential to the brain's development and functioning. In children who don't consume enough omega-3s can suffer from cognitive impairments as well as behavioral issues.
Probiotics can also benefit children's digestion. Probiotics are beneficial for the development of children's immune systems. They can support healthy microbiome balance in the gut and boost overall immunity.
Vitamin D supplements are beneficial for kids living in regions with only a little sun exposure. Vitamin D is crucial for the health of bones and immune system function. Children who aren't getting sufficient vitamin D may be susceptible to developing rickets and other bone-related ailments.
Benefits for adults
Adults' nutrition needs vary as they grow older. Supplements are an effective method to improve overall health and wellness. As an example, omega-3 fatty acids are beneficial to heart health and reducing inflammation. In addition, women who are expecting or are trying to get pregnant are able to benefit from folic acid supplements, which can help reduce the risk of birth defects.
Probiotics may also be helpful to adults' digestion health. Probiotics can be a fantastic method to ensure a healthy microbiome in the gut as we get older. Digestion enzymes also aid in improving the absorption of nutrients, and alleviating symptoms of digestive distress.
Supplements like collagen are beneficial for improving the health of hair, skin, and nails. Collagen helps to maintain the structure of skin, and its elasticity. It can also help with signs of ageing.
The Benefits of Senior Citizens
youtube
As seniors get older, their nutritional requirements alter once more. The use of supplements can aid in maintaining overall wellbeing and overall health throughout your life. Vitamin D and calcium can support bone health, reducing the chance of fractures or any other bone-related issues.
Furthermore, omega-3 fatty acids can aid in reducing inflammation and supporting cardiovascular health. CoQ10 can be beneficial for improving heart health, as well as to increase endurance to exercise.
Supplements such as glucosamine or chondroitin may also help in reducing the stiffness of joints and reduce joint pain. These supplements work by supporting the health and function of joint cartilage, which may degrade over time.
Summary
Supplements can benefit individuals at all ages all the way from infants to senior citizens. They may help to fill nutrition gaps, support overall health and wellness as well as reduce the likelihood of certain health conditions. It is also crucial to keep in mind that supplements should be used in conjunction with regular exercise and a healthy diet. It's also important to speak with a physician before you include supplements in your daily routine in particular if you're dealing with any medical issues or prescriptions that may affect the regimen.
When it comes to choosing supplements, you must be thorough and pick top-quality supplements from trusted manufacturers. Search for products that have undergone safety and effectiveness testing and are supported by research. In order to ensure that supplements are as potent as is possible, it's essential to follow the dosage recommendations and to store them properly.
In conclusion, health and beauty supplements can benefit individuals of all ages. No matter if you're a young person, adult, or even a senior, there's supplements that will meet your unique requirements for health and well-being. With the right supplements and a healthy way of life, you'll maximise your chances of optimal health and well-being.

We Humans aren't designed to live forever, but we can live longer than we do!
Tumblr media
Most “anti-aging” supplements that many popular websites and books recommend do NOT slow down your aging process, they mostly benefit your health as you get older, and you are still ageing at the same rate you always have.
These are substances like vitamin A, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10, lipoic acid, B-vitamins, calcium, omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, multivitamins, curcumin, EGCG, nicotinamide riboside (NR), mushroom extracts and many more are great supplements but they won't slow down your aging!
This means many touted “anti-aging” supplements are nothing more than antioxidants, which do improve your health as you age, like vitamin A, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10, lipoic acid and so on. But they don’t slow down aging. Some antioxidants can even accelerate aging, like lipoic acid or vitamin A and vitamin E.
Ya see,... We human beings aren't supposed to live forever so we have an aging process which triggers (kicks in) at a certain age, and it's downhill from there on. We have a built in fail point, just like automobiles do, so they can keep selling us cars forever.
Ya wanna know what does slow down your ageing process, and they SLOW DOWN not stop it..........
1. "Fisetin", a natural ingredient found in vegetables and fruits, especially in strawberries. Fisetin is mostly known for its senolytic activity, meaning it can clear away senescent cells, ..... zombie cells literally that have done their job biologically but reuse to die off, and are still hanging around sponging off of other healthy cells, like many of our political leaders do.
2. Alpha-ketoglutarate (the calcium form)
Alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) is a substance that naturally occurs in our bodies. When we get older, the levels of AKG decline. Most studies show in mice that they live 14% longer than mice that didn't take Alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG).
3. Microdosed lithium
Lithium is a mineral found in nature. It seeps from rocks into water, including drinking water, like natural spring water.
Various studies show the more amount of lithium in the drinking water the longer people have been living in that area, and had less neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.
So the further you are from the city the better off health wise you are.
Can you see the stars at night,...... if not your still to close to the city!
4. Glycine
Glycine is an amino acid that occurs naturally in our body. When we age, glycine levels decline.
Glycine has many functions in the body. It improves the epigenome (the machinery that determines which genes are switched on or off, a process that goes increasingly awry when we get older). Glycine especially improves the epigenome of mitochondria, the power plants of our cells.
5. Pterostilbene
Pterostilbene is the better brother of the famous anti-aging substance resveratrol.
Resveratrol has long been hyped as a longevity substance. However, it unfortunately did not live up to that hype. Studies showed disappointing results when it came to resveratrol extending lifespan.
6. Malate or malic acid
Malate, also called malic acid, is found in apples, and in our own bodies.
Malate is an important substance in the mitochondria. In fact, malate is a component of the Krebs cycle, which consists of various substances that are chemically modified to provide the energy that keeps all cells going.
7. Magnesium
Magnesium is an indispensable mineral for the body to function properly.
Magnesium helps innumerable enzymes in our body to function properly. Cells shuttle magnesium in and out to propagate nerve signals and to generate muscle impulses, including the beatings of our heart.
Magnesium also sticks to our DNA, stabilizing our DNA, protecting it against damage. Increasing DNA damage is one of the reasons why we get older.
8. Glucosamine (the sulfate form)
Most people know glucosamine as a substance to reduce wear and tear of cartilage and to improve joint health.
Few people know that glucosamine can also extend lifespan in different organisms, including mice.
Studies show that glucosamine is one of the few supplements associated with reduced mortality in humans, and also reduced risk of cardiovascular disease in humans.
9. Hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is an important component of the skin. But hyaluronic acid (HA) surrounds and embeds many other cells in the body than just the skin cells.
The older we get, the less hyaluronic acid there is in the body. A 70-year-old has only about 19 percent of the amount of hyaluronic acid of a young person.
Studies show that hyaluronic acid, taken orally, can improve skin appearance by reducing wrinkles, improving moisturization of the skin and increasing skin radiance. It can also improve osteoarthritis, which makes sense given joints and cartilage contain a lot of hyaluronic acid.
10. Ginger
Ginger is a well-known spice. But it’s not just any spice, it's THE SPICE for longevity.
Many scientific studies demonstrated multiple beneficial health effects of ginger, like reducing inflammation and protecting cells against damage.
Ginger has been found to extend lifespan in simple organisms, like fruit flies.
Ginger can improve type 2 diabetes and inflammation in humans.
11. Rhodiola rosea
Rhodiola rosea is a very interesting plant that grows in the northern regions of Europa and Asia.
Rhodiola rosea has been used for centuries as an adaptogen, a substance that can improve resilience against both physiological stress and mental stress.
Rhodiola can also improve nerve regeneration.
Studies in humans show that Rhodiola rosea can improve memory, concentration and can reduce fatigue.
12. L-theanine
Theanine is a substance found in green tea, and is one of the reasons why green tea is healthy.
Theanine has been shown to extend lifespan in simple organisms.
Theanine has been associated with healthier blood vessels, and could reduce blood pressure and even obesity.
Theanine has shown to reduce neurodegeneration and protect neurons in the body.
13. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN)
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is needed to make NAD+.
NAD+ is a very important substance in the cells. It provides energy for cells and is also a cofactor for proteins that repair and maintain our epigenome and our DNA.
NMN improves metabolism and reduces inflammation.
In conclusion I can say I've studied anti-aging for decades and many anti-aging supplements are based on outdated insights and don’t have any or just very little science backing up their claims.
Also, they do not contain substances that have been shown to act on aging mechanisms.
I personally have been taking 5 of these 13 supplements for a decade, so I should outlive your grandchildren, Lol
I would say if you just took one of these 13 it should be L-Glycine, because Glycine is like the switch that turns on the light in the room, and if the switch doesn't work nothing else gets what it need to illuminate you.
Ginger being a close second to take, which both are fairly cheap in cost to get pharmaceutical grade supplements, and remember only pharmaceutical grade supplements are worth a damn, because Choosing a pharmaceutical-grade supplement is the only way to know for sure that you're giving your body the highest, purest, and most bioavailable form of an ingredient possible, so if it doesn't say "pharmaceutical-grade" on the label, it isn't!!
As Spock from Star Trek would say "Live Long And Prosper", and you do that by knowing how!

Combine Supplements To Get The Best Health Benefits

Many people choose to take one supplement to treat an issue with their health. But research indicates that mixing certain supplements can result in synergistic effects, meaning that the combination of different supplements can produce a greater effect than each supplement alone. In this article, we will explore the advantages of mixing supplements for the best well-being.
Synergistic effects
The combination of supplements may result in synergistic effects. As an example, vitamin D as well as calcium can be combined to support the health of bones. Calcium can help increase vitamin D absorption, while vitamin D helps in absorption of calcium. They have a greater impact when consumed together, than if they were each taken in isolation.
Combining omega-3 fatty acid and vitamin E have the same positive synergistic effect on inflammation. Vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acid provide anti-inflammatory benefits. Oxidative stress can be a major contributor to inflammation.
In the end, mixing probiotics with prebiotics could result in an effect synergistic to digestive health. Prebiotics, which are fibers that are not digestible by humans, but that nourish the healthy bacteria found within our digestive tracts and are also known as probiotics. They can improve digestion and functioning of the immune system when taken in combination.
Combine supplements for certain health problems
In addition to producing a synergistic effect, combining supplements can also be helpful to address specific health issues. Combining glucosamine with chondroitin may benefit those who suffer from joint stiffness or pain. Both chondroitin and glucosamine work to improve joint health and reduce inflammation. This can reduce stiffness and joint pain.
Similar to this, people suffering from memory loss or cognitive issues may benefit from combining omega-3 fatty acids as well as phosphatidylserine supplements. Omega-3 fatty acids are beneficial to brain health and cognitive function as well as phosphatidylserine helps improve memory and attention span.
CoQ10 combined with omega-3 fatty acids could be beneficial to those with heart conditions. CoQ10 is a powerful antioxidant that promotes heart health while omega-3 fatty acids can aid in reducing inflammation and improving the lipid profile.
Quality and the Importance of Quality

In the event of combining supplements, you must choose high-quality products from reputable manufacturers. Select supplements that have passed safety and effectiveness testing as well as research-based support. To ensure that supplements are as effective as possible, it is crucial to stick to dose guidelines and to ensure that they are stored properly.
You should also keep in mind that some supplements can be combined with other medications. For example, combining blood-thinning supplements such as fish oil or vitamin E with blood-thinning medications can increase the risk of bleeding. Combining a supplement like St. John's Wort with antidepressant medication can also reduce its efficacy.
Contact a healthcare provider
Talk to your doctor before mixing any supplements. This is especially important in the case of taking medication or have underlying medical issues. It is possible to ask your health physician for recommendations on what supplements to mix and how many of them to mix. They will also be able to provide specific information on the potential interactions between medicines as well as the supplement.
Your doctor will be able to help you determine which supplements you need for your particular health concern. Instead of jumbled the various supplements, focus on addressing specific health concerns with targeted supplements.

Better Together: The Synergistic Effects Of Combining Supplements For Optimal Health
Tumblr media
With regards to supplements, many people take one or two supplements in order to treat a particular health concern. Research suggests, however, that some supplements have synergistic benefits, which means that they can be superior to the supplement alone. In this piece we'll explore the benefits of combining supplements to achieve optimal well-being.
The Synergistic Effect
When supplements are combined, they can work together to create a synergistic impact. Calcium and vitamin D as an example, are frequently used to boost bone health. Calcium aids in increasing the absorption of vitamin D, and vitamin D assists in the absorption of calcium. Together, they produce an even greater impact for bone health than each supplement by itself.
Combining omega-3 fatty acid and vitamin E has a similar positive synergistic effect on inflammation. Vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acid have anti-inflammatory effects. Oxidative stress can be a major contributor to inflammation.
In the end, mixing probiotics with prebiotics may result in an effect synergistic to digestive health. Probiotics are living bacteria that support a healthy gut microbiome and prebiotics are not digestible fibers that feed the good bacteria that live in your stomach. They are able to improve digestion and immune system function when taken together.
Take supplements in conjunction with particular health issues
Combining different supplements isn't just beneficial for producing synergistic effects, but it can also help address specific health issues. Combining chondroitin and glucosamine could be beneficial for individuals suffering from joint pain and stiffness. Both reduce inflammation and support healthy joints. This can alleviate joint pain.
In the same way, those suffering from memory loss or cognitive problems may be benefited by combining omega-3 fatty acids with phosphatidylserine supplementation. Omega-3 fatty acids help support cognition and brain health, while phosphatidylserine can help improve memory and attention span.
Finally, individuals with heart health concerns could benefit from the combination of CoQ10 along with omega-3 fatty acids supplements. CoQ10 is an antioxidant that's potent which promotes heart health while omega-3 fatty acids can aid in reducing inflammation and improving lipid profiles.
The Importance of Quality

If you are combining different supplements, you must pick high-quality items from reliable manufacturers. Select supplements that have passed tests for safety and efficacy as well as research-based support. To make sure that the supplements are as potent as possible, it is essential to follow the dose guidelines and to store them properly.
It is important to keep your eyes on the fact that certain supplements can be combined with other medications. For example, combining blood-thinning supplements like fish oil and vitamin E with blood-thinning medications could increase the chance of bleeding. Similarly, combining supplements like St. John's wort with antidepressant medications can reduce the effectiveness of medications.
Contact a Health Care Provider
Consult your healthcare provider before mixing any supplements. This is especially important when you take medication or have medical issues. You can ask your healthcare doctor for guidance on the best supplements you should mix, and in what much of each. They will also be able to provide information about potential interactions between medicines and the supplement.

This nutritional blend tastes good and provides many health benefits to your Cane Corso, which we will discuss in this blog. So keep reading
What is Bone Broth?
Bone broth is a liquid made by cooking bones for a long time on a low flame. This slow cooking of animals' bones extracts all the nutrients, such as collagen, minerals, vitamins, and amino acids.
The extracted dense blend of nutrient-rich liquid serves as a flavorful broth and a supplement to your dog.
What are the benefits of bone broth for Cane Corso
There are several health benefits that bone broth offers to your dog. These are;
Boosts Joint Strength
The Cane Corsos are heavy, muscular dogs more prone to joint problems than lighter breeds. Collagen, which makes joints and cartilage healthy, is a vital nutrient in bone broth.
Collagen is mainly responsible for keeping the connective tissues intact and reducing any risks involved in arthritis or joint pain.
Chondroitin and glucosamine, present in bone broth, make joints easily mobile.
Makes Digestion Better
Bone broth has gelatin, which is crucial for improving the digestive system. Dogs with sensitive stomachs or digestive disturbances should be offered bone broth as the gelatin helps heal the lining of the gut and heal it quickly.
When your dog has a healthy gut, it will enable him to absorb the nutrients better and improve his digestive function.
Boosts Immunity
Bone broth has vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, crucial in boosting immune function. If you offer your Cane Corsos bone broth, they can fight off infections better.
Improves the Skin and Healthy Coat
Dogs who regularly have bone broth have better skin and shiny coats due to the presence of collagen and amino acids that broth contains. Amino acids such as glycine and proline take part in skin repair. Collagen increases skin elasticity and makes it fresh and healthy.
Hydration status
If your Cane Corsos recently suffered from an illness or is anorectic, bone broth can help improve hydration as it contains a lot of water and electrolytes.
How to make Bone Broth?
It's a pretty simple process, which is explained below
Take one to two pounds of beef or chicken bones
Add one tablespoon of vinegar to it
Cook the bones after adding water and bringing it to a boil, and then let it simmer for 4 to 6 hours slowly to extract all the nutrients.
After the bone is cooked, strain the broth and let it cool before offering.
Serve the bone broth in small amounts initially and check for your dog's response.
Conclusion
Introducing bone broth to your Cane Corsos diet provides a nutrient-rich blend that helps aid the digestive system and boost the immune system.
