Description
CALMEX® FOR CATS is a natural supplement to aid with promoting feelings of calm and a relaxed demeanour in cats. Cats are particularly prone to stress and anxiety for a variety of reasons and managing this is very helpful in minimising the negative effects of this stress to your feline friend.
CALMEX® FOR CATS contains a unique blend of nutraceutical ingredients to help support cats experiencing acute or chronic stress.
Lecithin (source of Phosphatidylserine)
Contains a major brain phospholipid, which plays a role in neurotransmitter
production and release and so enhances nerve cell signalling. It has
been shown in a nutritional context that phosphatidylserine normalises the
hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal response to stress.
L-Tryptophan
An amino acid precursor to serotonin. Regulation of serotonin can improve anxiety and stress as it has a role in many physiological functions. Supplementation in cats has been found to reduce stress related behavioural issues, such as house soiling and scratching.
B-vitamins (B1, B3, B6)
These are involved in the synthesis of key neurotransmitters and can decrease the
cortisol response to stress.
CALMEX® FOR CATS is designed to aid cats that encounter long term stressful circumstances such as territorial stress, moving home or rehoming, multi- cat households. However, it can also be used to support cats for during one-off or short-term stressors if necessary such as travel, fireworks, vet visits, boarding or cattery stays.
