Cobalazorb (B12 and folate)
Cobalazorb (B12) For Dogs & Cats (60 capsules) is an oral cobalamin (vitamin B12) supplement designed to help support normal serum cobalamin (vitamin B12) and folate (vitamin B9) levels in dogs and cats.
Ingredients
- Cobalamin (vitamin B12): Cobalamin is a water-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in many physiological processes including cellular metabolism, DNA synthesis, amino acid metabolism, fatty acid metabolism and erythrocyte formation.
- Folic acid (vitamin B9): Folic acid is a synthetic form of folate, another important water-soluble B vitamin that is essential for DNA synthesis and repair thus playing a key role in cell division and growth. As a result, proliferating cells such as erythrocytes, leukocytes and enterocytes have a high requirement for folic acid.
- Preplex® prebiotics: A prebiotic combination of fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) and acacia (gum arabic), which helps to support a healthy gastrointestinal microbiota and thus aiding the maintenance of optimum serum folate and cobalamin levels.
- Artificial chicken flavouring: To improve palatability and compliance, without any concerns for animals with food allergies or intolerances.
