Taurine for Dogs

Taurine for Dogs

ASK YOUR VET!

Taurine can be important for such breeds as Boxers who are prone to heart problems.

It is "new" amino acid, inasmuch as for a long time it was thought of as unimportant for dogs. Recent studies have demonstrated that Taurine plays a role in heart and kidney function.

Taurine facilitates the appropriate absorption and cell transfer of potassium and calcium too.

Along with L-Carnitine, Taurine is often indicated for Boxers with a cardiomyopathy.

Chicken, preferrably raw, is the best natural source of Taurine.

Besides being important for the heart Taurine also improves brain function and is important for the gall bladder. Deficiency can lead to blindness, which is often curable with Taurine supplements.

Along with L-Carnitine, supplements can assist in maintaining healthy muscle mass and fat reduction (through better "burning").

Be sure to discuss with your veterinarian first, though!
