Apart from incorporating regular exercises and creating a safe space in your home for your pet to retreat and take time to calm down, we highly recommend a regular intake of nucleotide. Studies have found that the requirements of Nucleotides are greater during periods of rapid growth, health challenge, injury and stress.
Nucleotides are the building blocks for the synthesis of bases and doubling of the DNA (cell division). Hence feeding CAHO Nucleotide to your pets is can help to maintain their health status and offers great support during challenging periods. Additionally, it protects the integrity of the gut lining; leading to stronger gut health and better nutrient absorption.
CAHO Nucleotide is available here. You are only a sprinkle away to a healthier pet.
