Convalescence in dogs
Surgeries put a strain on our four-legged friends, but how can I be supportive?
Dogs should maintain their weight during the regeneration phase, gain weight again and of course one also wants to alleviate the accompanying pain during this time.
For animals in the recovery phase after illness or surgery, not only nutrition is an essential factor, but also the accompaniment with medication.
Early nutritional support, fluid intake and nutrients are essential. Digestion should be supported during this time and the immune system can also be very well supported in this demanding time in the recovery process.
With our entoVITAL DOG insect based food, which is easily digestible, your four-legged friend can be given a good helping hand to protect the digestive tract and ensure the supply of important amino acids.
What more can I do?
With TAMACAN CBD veterinary preparations you have the opportunity to support the organism in healing, during this time your animal’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) relies on receiving exogenous cannabinoids to bring homeostasis back into balance so the organism can heal easier and faster. By supporting with our CBD veterinary preparations for dogs, you can help your pet recover in a purely natural and gentle way.
- Your pet will be supported in feeling hungry when the endocannabinoid system is functioning.
- Physical therapies will work better.
- The recovery process will be shortened.
- Your four-legged friend gets the inner peace it needs for healing.
The way we understand ECS in animals has opened doors for new approaches to pain management, cancer therapeutics, modulation of neurological disorders, stress reduction, anxiety management, and inflammatory diseases. Both endogenous and exogenous endocannabinoid-related molecules may act as direct ligands or affect the ECS in other ways.
ECS systems have been detected in all animals, including vertebrates (mammals, birds, reptiles, and sheep) and invertebrates (sea urchins, leeches, mussels, nematodes, and others).
CB-1 and CB-2 receptors are involved in numerous biological processes. Some of these include: Neuron plasticity, pain, anxiety, inflammation, neuroinflammation, immune function, metabolic regulation and bone growth.
The CB-1 receptor is also found in the peripheral nervous system as well as cardiovascular, immune, gastrointestinal, and reproductive tissues.
CB-2 was found mainly in cells of the immune system as well as the spleen and tonsils.
The CB 1 and CB 2 receptors are structurally quite similar, although they are located in different anatomical sites in the central nervous system and immune system, respectively.
In the immune system, they can modulate the release of cytokines (cytokines have effects on inflammatory processes, bacterial proliferation and the development of cancer). Activation of lymphocyte CB-2 receptors by cannabinoids leads to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. CB 1 and CB 2 receptors decrease adenyl cyclase activity and downregulate the cAMP signaling pathway.
CBD (cannabidiol) is an extremely positive aspect for your pet in a completely natural way.
