Onewa Road Veterinary Hospital Ltd
Independent, locally owned and operated veterinary care for the North Shore and Central Auckland.
A nutritional supplement to help maintain a healthy central nervous system and normal brain function.
Aktivait contains a complex mix of antioxidants (Vitamins C, E, CoQ10, alpha lipoic acid and N-acetyl cysteine) and compounds necessary for optimum metabolism and function of the nerve cells (Carnitine, DHA/EPA and Phosphotidylserine). It may also help to prevent free radical damage and improve electrical transmission between nerve cells.
Animal behaviourists have identified four distinct symptoms of cognitive dysfunction- Disorientation, Loss of house training, Irregular sleep patterns and reduced interaction. This can be due to the harmful free radicals that are naturally produced in the body.
In a young and healthy animal, antioxidants are produced to neutralize the free radicals and maintain equilibrium. As your pet ages they produce less antioxidants and an imbalance occurs. This leads to an excess of free radicals, which damage the cells and cell contents especially DNA, lipid membranes and proteins. This in turn can lead to the development of disease and related problems.
As dogs grow older the brain can become damaged by free radicals which can cause biological and physical damage to the brain tissue. This can lead to behavioural changes such as disorientation, disturbed sleeping patterns, loss of interest in other group members, and loss of house training.
