More Information on Zinc
(from the manufacturer of Zinpro):
As a dog owner you may have been
presented with various skin and coat problems with your dog. Considerable
attention has been given to the involvement of the trace element of zinc, in pet
nutrition. Zinc is the second highest requirement of the trace minerals in a
dog’s diet. Only iron is required in higher amounts.
Zinc is involved in most of the
enzymes systems of the body. However its main
involvement is with:
1. Protein synthesis, skin:
Skin and coat are mainly made up
of protein, which require substantial amounts of bio-available zinc to aid in
the maintenance and repair (healing) of skin tissue.
2. Autoimune system:
The body allows the animal to
fight off infections, as well as instrument its own healing process. A readily
available source of zinc is necessary for the dog to heal skin which has been
injured due to scratching, flea bites, allergies.
Readily available zinc can be
obtained through Zinpro dog biscuits, and many dogs with chronic skin and coat
problems show improvement after about 4-6 weeks. Skin quality often improves,
and as healthy hair grows from healthy skin, the hair coat usually shows
improvement as well.
Zinpro is not a drug, it contains
the mineral zinc, is non toxic, and safe. Zinpro does not contain cortisone and
can be used as the biscuit of choice. If your dog is scratching or has other
skin irritation problems due to known or unknown causes try Zinpro Dog Biscuits.
