What It Supports

  • Healthy aging: A botanical blend for pets entering or living in their senior years.
  • Brain and circulation: Ginkgo leaf and hawthorn berry contribute to the formula's traditional circulatory-support focus.
  • Digestion and liver wellness: Dandelion, marshmallow, and milk thistle bring traditional digestive and liver-support roles.
  • Kidney wellness and normal elimination: Dandelion root and leaf complement the blend's whole-body healthy-aging focus.
  • Everyday vitality: Alfalfa and oat flowering tops round out the tonic's healthy-aging focus.

About the Key Herbs

The eight certified organic herbs form a proprietary blend totaling 250 mg per 1 mL.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa): Alfalfa is a nutrient-containing plant with vitamins and polyphenols studied for antioxidant properties. It contributes a nutritive botanical component to the blend, complementing your pet's complete diet.

Pu Gong Ying (Taraxacum officinale), Dandelion root and leaf: Dandelion is traditionally used in Chinese herbal practice to clear Heat and resolve toxicity. From a Western perspective, dandelion contains phenolics and bitter compounds studied for digestive and antioxidant properties. Its root and leaf complement the formula's digestive and normal-elimination support.

Milk thistle (Silybum marianum), Seed: Milk thistle supplies silymarin flavonolignans, studied for liver-supporting antioxidant activity. Its inclusion complements the blend's emphasis on normal liver function and healthy aging.

Yin Xing Ye (Ginkgo biloba), Ginkgo leaf: Ginkgo leaf contains flavonoids and terpene lactones researched for vascular and cognitive effects, complementing the formula's brain and circulatory-support focus.

Shan Zha (Crataegus species), Hawthorn berry: In TCVM, Shan Zha traditionally addresses food stagnation and supports digestion. Western research explores hawthorn flavonoids and procyanidins for cardiovascular effects.

Oat (Avena sativa), Flowering tops: Oat flowering tops have traditional uses as a gentle nutritive botanical, complementing the tonic's everyday-vitality focus.

Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis), Root: Marshmallow root contains mucilage traditionally used to soothe mucous membranes. It contributes to the blend's digestive-comfort role.

Da Suan (Allium sativum), Garlic: Garlic is traditionally described as warming and used for digestive support in Chinese herbal practice. It is one component of this eight-herb blend.
