The liver is key to our very survival, and performs incredible functions in the body.

This is the case of all animals, and death comes swiftly.

Of all the major organs in the body, the liver is physically the largest, and is instrumental in the body’s metabolism.

Of its many functions the ridding of toxins is one of the most important.

Clearly the liver is crucial to a healthy body, and its worth making extra effort to keep it healthy?

This is the case in all vertebrates, including dogs and cats.

Did you know that the liver can grow back if part is cut out?

But it needs to be healthy to do this, if it is not in a good environment it may cease working, and death will quickly follow.

Chronic disease can also afflict the liver. But let’s talk about dogs in particular and how their livers can be affected. Don’t forget too that the liver can be affected by disease.

Chronic Active Hepatitis in dogs can be compared to cirrhosis, the disease that affects many heavy drinkers. The causes are often unknown, but the target is the liver.

Because a disease is present, the body is provoked into releasing antibodies which clog up the liver.

Add the build up of toxins that cannot be excreted and you will see very quickly how the liver could fail.

If you have Doberman Pinschers, Cocker Spaniels and certain terriers you should keep an eye open for signs of this illness as they are prone to it.

Other diseases which can affect the liver are cancer and hepatitis.

Nutramax Denamarin with SAMe for dogs is an oral supplement designed to support liver function.

It contains S-Adenosylmethionine SAMe which stimulates glutathione production and silybin.

SAMe also prevents cell death in the liver and is thought to aid in the repair and regeneration of the liver.

Although it will not cure disease, Denamarin will help support good liver function which may help stave off disease and infection.

You need to choose the correct dosage for the size of your dog, it comes prepared for small, medium and large dogs.

Manufactured in three strengths for different sizes of dog, Denamarin could be an inexpensive way to help protect your dog’s health and your wallet.

Doesn’t it make sense?
