What causes pigmentation loss?
Pigment and/or hair loss can be associated with a shortage in minerals – especially iodine and iron. This fading can be particularly noticeable on the nose and around the eyes and mouth. It is seen most often during the winter months and also in bitches following a season or pregnancy.
Why are minerals and trace elements important?
Minerals and trace elements are essential for many of your dog’s body structures and functions. For example, iodine is required for the thyroid to function and control the entire body’s metabolism, and iron is an important constituent of red blood cells, vital for carrying oxygen. Your dog can’t make these minerals in their body, so has to get them from their diet. We use a special variety of deep-sea kelp, Fucus Vesiculosus, which is naturally packed full of the 37 minerals and trace elements that your pet needs, making it a great all-round nutritional supplement.
Why Dorwest Kelp Seaweed Tablets?
We only use kelp harvested from sustainable deep-sea sources, which is tested to British Herbal Pharmacopoeia standards for heavy metals and contaminants.
How do I use Kelp Seaweed Tablets?
For strong pigment many people find it useful to give the tablets from autumn through to spring to help prevent a drop in pigment. It is necessary to give the tablets for a minimum of one month to enhance pigmentation that has been lost, although it may take two or more months for it to be completely restored.
For pets that have already experience pigment loss, many owners have found that using Elderberry & Nettle Extract initially to regain the pigment is best, before swapping to the Kelp Seaweed Tablets for maintenance.
