About the Formula:

• Colostrum Calming Complex™ Biopeptide Blend is isolated from colostrum proteins. These proteins have a calming effect on animals. Additionally, they support cognitive function and stress reduction. The Colostrum Calming Complex™Biopeptide Blend works with L-Theanine in this formula to promote relaxation and cognition in dogs.

• L-Theanine supports calming, relaxation and the reduction of irritability and low mood states. Because of its ability to reduce stress, anxiety, and unwanted behavior, L-Theanine has been researched extensively. A naturally occurring amino acid found in green tea, L-Theanine is a derivative of the neurotransmitter glutamic acid. It helps the body produce other calming amino acids, such as dopamine, GABA and tryptophan. It also helps bring certain neurotransmitters into balance. Studies on L-Theanine showed reduced anxiety-related behavior in dogs without adverse effect or drowsiness; dogs were alert, playful, and calmer in stressful situations.

• Thiamine (vitamin B1) helps manage stress and reduces irritability. Thiamine has been shown to affect the central nervous system to help calm and soothe anxious animals. A lack of thiamine can cause mental confusion, muscular weakness, muscle spasms, nervousness, reduced appetite, or weight loss during periods of stress.
