Multiva breath control 45 chews (ndr)

Nutraceutical Supplement Formulated in High Palatability Chews to Help Control Bad Breath in Dogs.

Dogs are a social species with which we live
for many centuries, and with which we usually maintain close physical contact. This is one of the
main reasons why the presence of bad
odors in the environment or from the animal itself
(halitosis), is a common complaint from the owners of
dogs, being able to arrive, in extreme cases, to affect the
link between animals and people living together
with them.
Bad breath or halitosis can be due to different
causes, from processes originating in the oral cavity
such as periodontal disease, to others of origin
digestive, respiratory or renal. One of the possible
causes of halitosis is the formation of volatile sulfur compounds produced by the activity of
oral microorganisms. These bacteria degrade substrates present in the oral cavity, such as
food debris, epithelial cells... breaking proteins into amino acids rich in sulfur, such as
cysteine ​​or methionine, which in turn are broken down into volatile sulfur compounds.
However, the effects of these compounds are not limited only to the production of bad breath, but rather
it is believed that they can produce pathological effects by themselves, since they can increase the degradation of gingival collagen, predisposing to periodontal disease.
On the other hand, the bad fecal odor or its intensity can be a great discomfort in the case of
indoor living dogs Flatulence is common at home, and although studies do not seem to be
one of the main concerns of dog owners, it seems that most would be
willing to make changes in the diet of their dogs if they reduce flatulence. He
fecal odor is the result of the combination of different volatile components, such as compounds
sulfur compounds, phenols, ammonium, aliphatic amines, indoles and branched-chain fatty acids. Are
molecules are produced during the fermentation of carbohydrates and proteins in the intestine.
It can also be influenced by other factors, such as the degree of physical activity or the composition
of the diet. For example, sedentary dogs may have a more pronounced fecal odor, due to the
slowing of intestinal transit due to lack of exercise, which can increase fermentation.
On the other hand, there is evidence that both the composition and the activity of the intestinal microflora
of dogs and cats can be modified through diet. Some studies indicate that probiotic supplementation can increase the intestinal population of bifidobacteria, while reducing the
of pathogenic organisms.

Properties and Mechanism of Action:
MULTIVA® Breath Control has a unique formula specially designed to help reduce the
bad breath and halitosis in dogs. The combination of spirulina and parsley (which in turn are rich sources
of chlorophyll), extract of mushroom, cinnamon and cassava provides a deodorizing effect in the oral cavity,
helps maintain the balance of intestinal bacteria and reduces the production of toxins at the oral level
and gut.
Arthrospira spp, known as spirulina, is a filamentous cyanobacterium, found in
It naturally occurs in alkaline lakes in Mexico and Africa, and has historically been used as a nutritional supplement. Of all the species of spirulina, A. platensis y A. maximum they are the most important.
Currently, it is marketed worldwide as a nutritional supplement for both humans and
for animals. In recent years, research on its properties and uses has increased exponentially, due to its complete nutritional profile: it is rich in protein, carbohydrates,
essential fatty acids and other micronutrients such as calcium, zinc, magnesium, manganese and selenium.
Furthermore, it is a natural source of chlorophyll, vitamins B12 and E, ascorbic acid and carotenoids.
Recently it has received more attention for its potential as a source of pharmaceutical components.
Many studies suggest that it has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory or immunomodulatory effects, as well
as other beneficial properties for health such as the regulation of hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia or hypertension.
It contains a wide range of carotenoids and xanthophyll pigments which, together with phycocyanin, seem
be responsible for its antioxidant activity. Some recent studies suggest that it promotes
strong antioxidant enzymatic activity, prevents lipid peroxidation and fights against
free radicals.
In addition to its antioxidant action, some research seems to indicate that A. platensis promotes
intestinal growth of Lactobacillus spp and lactic acid bacteria in synthetic media and in
products such as milk or fermented milk, acting as probiotics. Spirulina is believed to
It has a stimulating effect on acid production, lowering the pH of the intestine and thus favoring the growth of lactic acid bacteria. It has been suggested that regular consumption of Spirulina
Not only does it improve the intestinal flora of lactic acid bacteria, but it can also inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms, thus improving intestinal absorption.
On the other hand, it has been observed that there is a large amount of microalgae extracts and products
extracellular with antimicrobial activity, being some species of the genus Bacillus spp and Candida
albicans some of the microorganisms most susceptible to its effects. Other studies suggest
in addition to A. platensis has antimicrobial effects on pathogenic bacteria such as
Proteus vulgaris. This action may be due to the fact that its extracts contain substances such as phenols,
terpenes, γ-linolenic acid, active fatty acids and the synergistic effect of lauric acids and
palmitolericos. Other studies suggest that some microalgae, such as spirulina, may have
antimicrobial activity against pathogens such as E. coli due to its high polysaccharide content.
Petroselinum crispum (parsley) is a plant of the Apiaceae family, native to the Mediterranean,
Currently distributed throughout the world. It has been used traditionally as a carminative (for the
reduction of flatulence), diuretic, antispasmodic and antimicrobial. Its laxative effects and
diuretics have been studied in rats: the results seem to indicate that they inhibit sodium absorption
(and consequently, that of water), by inhibiting the Na+/K+ pump. It has also been seen
that parsley is a rich source of vitamin C and chlorophyll.
La clorofila It is the most abundant group of pigments in nature. In addition to its use as
dye, some recent studies suggest that it may have direct effects on health.
Studies in dogs indicate that, due to its low absorption, the site of action of its biological effects
It's in the intestine. On the other hand, it is believed that chlorophyll may have bacteriostatic activity, and
even bactericidal, under favorable environmental conditions. Some studies suggest that it may
inhibit the growth of staphylococci or streptococci, as well as some oral bacteria such as
Porphyromonas gingivalis o Fusobacterium nucleatum

Ethnoveterinary medicine has traditionally used fungi and plant-derived products
since centuries. Mushrooms have a composition rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals, and have been
used extensively as nutraceuticals both in the prevention and in the support in the treatments of
different diseases. Currently, it is attributed to fungi of the genus agaricus spp. multiple
properties on the organism, among which it is worth highlighting the immunomodulatory and antioxidant actions and on the control of glycemia and hypercholesterolemia. Its antioxidant effects are believed
They derive from the large amount of tocopherols they possess.
Agaricus bisporus (common mushroom) is a fungus that belongs to the Agaricaceae family, originating
of Europe and North America. It is the most widely used edible mushroom species, which is why its cultivation is
It has expanded enormously in recent decades. Contains high levels of dietary fiber,
folic acid, vitamins C, B12 and D. Some studies indicate that supplementation with Agaricus bisporus
increase the number of Lactobacillus spp. and Bifidobacterium spp. in the intestine of broilers. Others
Studies carried out in rats suggest that it improves the fermentation of the intestinal flora, through a
increase in the cecal concentration of short-chain fatty acids, which acidify the luminal pH,
thus lowering the levels of E. coli. It is believed that these effects derive from its polysaccharide content, which gives it probiotic properties. Other studies carried out on the bioactivity of its
phenol content suggest that it may have antimicrobial activity against E. coli y S. aureus.
Yucca Schidiger It is a herbaceous plant native to the deserts of Mexico and the south west of
United States, already used by Native Americans for a long time. They are attributed multiple
effects and has been widely used as an additive in animal diets to reduce the amount of
ammonium released into the environment in animals such as pigs, poultry and cattle, modify the ruminal microbiota or
modify the cholesterol content in eggs and tissues. Cassava has been found to contain
different physiologically active components, including polyphenols and saponins. The exact mechanism by which cassava produces these effects is unknown, but it is
both direct and indirect actions, such as the modification of the bacterial population of the colon
(responsible for fermentations), or the inhibition of the urease enzyme. Some studies indicate that the
The addition of cassava can reduce the production of volatile sulfur compounds in dogs by up to 38%.
Cinnamonum verum (cinnamon) is an evergreen tree, native to Sri Lanka, also cultivated in India,
used both in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Almost all of it is used
of its structure (leaves, roots, flowers...), the bark being its most important part. In vitro studies and
in vivo in both animals and humans suggest that it has numerous beneficial effects for
health, such as anti-inflammatory properties, enhancers of cognitive function and control of
blood glucose and cholesterol. Over the last few years, it has received special attention for its potential
as an antimicrobial agent, especially against the main oral bacteria. They have been identified
several active components, including eugenolol, cinnamaldehyde and linalool.
Some studies indicate that cinnamaldehyde, the most bioactive component of the bark of the
cinnamon tree, has an inhibitory effect on the growth of fungi such as Aspergillus spp, Fusarium
spp and bacteria like E. coli, Pseudomonas spp, Corynebacterium spp or Streptococcus spp. It has been seen
that damages the cell membrane Pseudomonas aeruginosa, thus increasing its permeability and the
loss of intracellular elements.
