ESSEX JUNCTION, Vt. -- (Nov. 2, 2004) It has become a well known fact that cats and dogs suffer from anxiety and often act out with inappropriate behavior. Environmental stressors for pets include changes to the pet's environment; moving or traveling; boredom or separation anxiety; and fireworks and thunderstorms. Pet Naturals® of Vermont offers a peaceful solution with its Calming Formula for Dogs and Calming Formula for Cats.
Calming Formula will help alleviate anxiety related behaviors without affecting the animal's emotional balance and personality. It contains a combination of safe and non-addicting ingredients not found in other calming formulas. A key ingredient is calming decapeptide (lactium® brand) isolated from the milk protein casein and known for its calming effects and ability to work synergistically with L-Theanine (Suntheanine® brand).
L-Theanine supports calming and relaxation, and reduces irritability and low mood states. The Pet Naturals formula includes the Suntheanine brand because of extensive research and documentation from more than 45 studies that suggest the brand is helpful in reducing stress and anxiety. It helps the body produce calming amino acids such as dopamine, GABA and tryptophan, and helps bring certain neurotransmitters into better balance. Studies done on L-Theanine showed that dogs exhibited reduced anxiety related behaviors without adverse effects and had no reported drowsiness. Dogs were alert, playful and calmer than expected given their situations.
Another key ingredient, lecithin, is calming to the nervous system. It is a phospholipid rich in B vitamins, choline and inositol, which helps support brain function and reduce anxiety. Thiamin, or vitamin B1, specifically has been shown to affect the central nervous system to calm and sooth anxious animals. Calming Formula can be used daily or when needed to promote relaxation. The liquid formula can be mixed in with food.
