These capsules deliver an antioxidant boost specifically formulated for dogs and cats. The antioxidants in wheatgerm oil may help neutralise free radicals—unstable molecules that can damage cells—supporting your pet's overall wellness. Many pet owners choose this supplement to help maintain a glossy coat, healthy skin and reproductive health. Dorwest Herbs use natural ingredients with no artificial additives, making it a trusted choice for discerning pet parents.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Ingredients and Their Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCold-pressed wheatgerm oil is rich in natural vitamin E and essential fatty acids. Vitamin E (including alpha-tocopherol and other tocopherols) is a fat-soluble antioxidant that may help protect cells from oxidative stress, contributing to the maintenance of normal skin and a glossy coat. It may also support immune function and reproductive health. The oil additionally provides omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which may help reduce inflammation and support joint mobility. These nutrients work together to support your pet's vitality. The natural form of vitamin E in this supplement is believed to be more bioavailable than synthetic versions, supporting effective absorption and utilisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRecommended Dosage\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDosage is based on your pet's weight. For small dogs and cats under 11 kg, give one capsule daily. Medium dogs (11–23 kg) may take two capsules daily, and large dogs over 23 kg can take three capsules per day. Start at the lower end and adjust as needed. Administer capsules with food to enhance absorption and minimise digestive upset. If your pet refuses to swallow the capsule, you can puncture it and squeeze the oil onto their food. Always follow the packaging instructions and your veterinarian's advice. Supplements are designed to complement a balanced diet, not replace it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSafety and Side Effects\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWheatgerm oil is generally safe for dogs and cats when used as directed. Because it is rich in vitamin E, excessive intake may lead to hypervitaminosis E, which may cause gastrointestinal upset or interfere with blood clotting. Adhere to recommended dosages and avoid over-supplementing. If your pet is on blood-thinning medication or has a known sensitivity, consult your veterinarian first. Side effects are rare but may include mild diarrhoea or vomiting. Discontinue use and seek veterinary care if adverse reactions occur. Store the capsules in a cool, dry place away from pets and children. Always monitor your pet when introducing any new supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Choose the Right Supplement\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen selecting an antioxidant supplement for your pet, prioritise quality and purity.
