Lecithin provides a concentrated source of phospholipids and fatty acids - essential for healthy coat growth. Added yeast, a natural source of B vitamins, also supports growth and condition. As with our flax oil, we grow our crops on UK farms and choose varieties with a higher specification of Omega 6 GLA than standard Borage crops. Omega 6 GLA helps to nourish and replenish dogs’ skin, ensuring the skin stays healthy and maintains active coat growth. It also soothes sensitive skin and reduces itching and scratching. Like humans, dogs can’t produce beneficial amounts of GLA themselves, so you need to supplement their diet. Our standards are so high that we reject many oils that go into human supplements. That way we can ensure your pet is getting the best supplement for their needs.

Omega 6 LA is the main component of the skin’s moisture barrier and supports the skin’s natural defences. For both dogs and cats it can help to stop the skin from drying out, so it can reduce moulting and dandruff. It can also help your dog maintain a barrier against the the allergens that cause itching. We use one specific variety of Flax, chosen because it’s much high in Omega 3 content than other varieties. In fact, it’s more than 55% Omega 3 (ALA), which has been shown in scientific studies to improve coat condition in dogs. The Omega 6 GLA keeps skin cells and hair follicles in an active state so they hang on to the pet’s hairs and encourage them to grow. Without enough GLA, the hair follicles in your pet’s skin could go into a passive state and let go of the hairs, which is why some pets moult all year round. Salmon oilOmega 3 is a group of three main polyunsaturated ‘fatty acids’. They are ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), EPA (eicosapentanoic acid) and DHA (docosahexanoic acid). These fatty acids will be referred to throughout using these initials.

Added natural Vitamin E and Omega 6 (LA), support the skin’s natural defences, helping your dog maintain a barrier against the allergens that cause itching. By simply cold pressing, we can maintain the oils in their natural condition, which makes them highly effective for your pets. It also keeps them naturally tasty and easy to feed. High levels of essential Omega 3 oils from Golden Flax seed to improve coat condition. A healthy coat is your dog's first line of defence against itchy triggers like pollen and grass. The pressing and grinding does produce some heat due to friction. However, for an oil to be accepted as cold pressed, the temperature must not rise above 80.6°F (27°C), and many cold pressed oils are produced at even lower temperatures. Omega 3 ALA helps to keep dogs’ coats in good condition and supports the outer coat hairs, providing waterproofing and protection from the elements.Finally, the oil is blended into our YuDERM formulations, and bottled in our special oxygen-protecting bottle. Once the oils have been cold pressed, they’re filtered to take out any particles, leaving a pure oil. This oil is then tested for purity and low oxidation scores (a measure of quality), and also taste-tested by an expert testing panel, to ensure it meets our palatability criteria. Omega oils have many useful qualities that make them vital additions to the diets of dogs and cats. They play an important role in skin & coat health.
