Epigenetic Nutrition Therapy for animals - Vivo series for cat´s and dogs`s.
Nutrition and exercise are among the most well-known environmental epigenetic factors influencing developmental and functional lifestyle, with potential beneficial or detrimental effects on human health status. Several studies have reported the epigenetic effects of diet on human phenotype and disease susceptibility throughout their lives.
When it comes to animals, the level of research regarding the epigenetic effect of feed is nowhere near as developed and well-researched, yet. VetCur is the first company worldwide to use epigenetic nutritional therapy from the outset as our primary tool to optimize the animals' quality of life.
In general, it is the case that all food affects the body as a whole, since the body is built up, maintained and repaired by the food the body has available. In relation to using nutrition therapeutically, it is important to understand that there are feedstuffs that are rich in bioactive components that contribute to important key epigenetic processes that help the body to maintain or restore health balance.
Epigenetics does not involve changes in the DNA sequence, but the control of gene activity (phenotype). Nutrients can turn genes on and off, thereby changing/transforming/balancing the activity of critical genes involved in physiological and pathological processes, including embryonic development, weight, organ and system function, aging and gradual breakdown of healthy processes.
In this respect, nutritional epigenetics is a highly effective, innovative and at the same time safe tool to contribute to animal welfare.
The Viv0 series consists of five products for companion animals that contribute epigenetic building blocks to five important areas. The Vivo series can be used in combination with our other supplementary feed and complete feed products, and they can be given individually if needed:
