Dr. Bill's Pet Nutrition The Best Supplements for Your Pet Dr. Bill has been developing products for the veterinary profession since 1982 - his years of experience ensure that safety, efficacy, and palatability are built into every product. Careful attention to the dog and cat's specific nutritional needs during different life stages, periods of stress, levels of activity, and certain medical conditions have determined which products are needed most and will produce the best results. Feline Optimum Skin & Coat Your cat’s skin is the largest organ system in their body. It acts as a barrier to protect them from infection, parasites, and the environment. Their fur also serves important functions – protecting the skin from physical damage, harmful UV light, and aiding in the regulation of body temperature. Dr. Bill’s Optimum Skin & Coat products are highly concentrated nutritional powders that are scientifically formulated to provide a balanced blend of high-quality protein sources and powerful nutrients that are helpful in producing healthy skin and luxurious fur and coats. Whether your pet needs a fuller, healthier coat, faster regrowth of hair due to damage, shedding, whelping, or simply a bad haircut at the groomers – Optimum Skin & Coat is your product of choice. Optimum Skin & Coat has been shown to be safe for cats of all ages. Proactive Nutritional Support for: Healthy Skin Reduced Shedding Less Hairballs Luxurious Fur Less Itching & Scratching Read more Made with High-Quality, Biologically-Appropriate, Natural Ingredients Including: Marine Collagen Collagen makes up around 30% of the protein in the body. Collagen production declines with age and is reduced by exposure to ultraviolet light and other environmental factors, so supplementation is one way our cat’s skin and coats can remain healthy and looking great. Collagen types I & III give the skin strength and structure while playing a role in the replacement of dead skin cells. Hyaluronic Acid Hyaluronic Acid is a glycosaminoglycan – a long chain of disaccharides (sugars) present in all connective tissues that is responsible for retaining moisture and increasing the supplies of joint- lubricating synovial fluid. Hyaluronic Acid performs many important functions – it helps deliver nutrients to cells, carries toxins from cells, and encourages water retention in other bodily tissues. As animals age, levels of hyaluronic acid can decrease by as much as 50%. Omega-3 Fatty Acids The Omega-3 fatty acid series begins with alpha linolenic acid (ALA). Dogs find it difficult to synthesize n-3 fatty acids and it must come from either the diet or through supplementation. In order for alpha linolenic acid to be converted to the key n-3 fatty acids, Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) specific desaturase and elongase enzymes must be available. These enzymes are considered insufficient in the dog early in life. Marine plants and animals (algae, certain fish, krill and squid) are all able to convert ALA to EPA and DHA and are therefore the best direct dietary or supplemental sources of EPA and DHA for dogs Biotin Biotin is one of the sulfur-containing, water-soluble B vitamins necessary for the production and utilization of fats and amino acids and the integrity of skin and claws. Mammals are unable to synthesize biotin, so supplementation should be considered if optimum skin and coat health is a goal. Biotin is a cofactor for enzymes involved in the metabolism of protein, fat and carbohydrate. As a coenzyme, Biotin plays a role in deamination, generating energy from amino acids. Read more For Cats of All Ages Adult Cats A cat’s fur is a good indicator of its overall health. Changes in coat color or quality can be the first sign of disease. Help maintain that natural shine or recover that perfect coat with a tried and proven product that provides all essential skin and coat nutrients in an easy to digest and utilize form. Veterinarians and breeders know that Feline Optimum Skin & Coat really works – that’s why they have been recommending it and using it for over 35 years. Senior Cats The skin and coat are tied to nutrient absorption and utilization, so it is easy to see why so many senior cats have itchy skin and poor coats. They are no longer able to digest all of the essential nutrients that keep them fit and trim, so as cats age, they need increased nutrition, yet fewer calories. Feline Optimum Skin & Coat provides all of the extra nutrients needed to maintain healthy skin and coats and has been a favorite of the veterinary profession for years.
