NOW Pet Health, Cardiovascular Support Supplement, Formulated for Cats and Dogs, NASC Certified, Powder, 127 g

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits

• Carnitine: This amino acid derivative plays a key role in energy production by helping transport fatty acids into the mitochondria of cells. In the heart, carnitine is involved in maintaining healthy cardiac muscle function.
• Taurine: An essential amino acid for cats and conditionally essential for dogs, taurine is critical for normal heart function, vision and development. Many commercial diets may not provide adequate taurine, making supplementation beneficial.
• Antioxidants: A blend of antioxidants helps combat oxidative stress, which can contribute to cellular damage over time. Ingredients like vitamin E and selenium support overall cellular health.
• Botanicals: Carefully selected botanical extracts support circulatory health through natural plant compounds. These may include herbs traditionally used to support heart function.
• Chicken Bone Broth: Sourced from USA-raised chickens (growth hormone and steroid free), this flavourful broth adds palatability and provides natural collagen, amino acids and minerals.

Each ingredient is chosen not just for its individual benefits, but for how they work together synergistically. The formula is designed to complement your pet's regular diet, not replace it.

Why Your Pet May Need Cardiovascular Support

Just like humans, cats and dogs can benefit from targeted nutritional support for their cardiovascular system. As pets age, their hearts and circulatory systems may require extra care. Factors such as breed, size, diet and overall health can influence your pet's cardiovascular wellness. This specially formulated powder from NOW Pet Health is designed to support normal circulation and cardiovascular function, helping your furry friend stay active and vibrant through every life stage.

Formulated by renowned vet Dr Barbara Royal, DVM, CVA, this supplement combines key nutrients like carnitine, taurine, antioxidants and botanicals to provide comprehensive support. Whether your pet is a young puppy or a senior cat, adding a cardiovascular support supplement to their routine may help maintain their vitality.

Dr Barbara Royal brings decades of clinical experience to the formulation, ensuring that each ingredient serves a specific purpose.

How to Choose the Right Supplement for Your Pet

Every pet is unique. Before adding any supplement to your pet's regimen, consult your vet — especially if your pet has a pre-existing health condition or is on medication. A vet can help determine whether cardiovascular support is appropriate based on your pet's age, breed, lifestyle and dietary habits.

When selecting a supplement, look for certifications like the NASC Quality Seal, which indicates that the manufacturer follows Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and participates in third-party auditing. Also consider the form — powders, chews and liquids each have their advantages. Powders like this one allow flexible dosage and easy mixing.

Recommended Uses and Dosage

Dosage may vary based on your pet's weight and specific needs. For cats and dogs, consult the feeding guidelines on the product label or ask your vet for personalized advice. Generally, the powder can be mixed with food once daily. Because the formula includes flavourful chicken bone broth, most pets accept it readily. If your pet is particularly sensitive to new foods, start with a small amount and gradually increase to the recommended serving size.

Typical serving suggestions: For small dogs and cats (under 9 kg), 1 scoop; for medium dogs (9–23 kg), 1–2 scoops; for large dogs (over 23 kg), 2–3 scoops. These are guidelines only — refer to the label for precise instructions.
