GAME DOG Calcium V2 60 capsules
- Game Dog Calcium+D3 is a dietary supplement for dogs as a source of calcium, zinc, manganese and vitamin D3.
It supports proper growth, skeletal mineralization, and bone formation. It compensates for calcium deficiencies and positively affects muscle and immune system function.
Calcium is a fundamental building block of bones and teeth, ensuring proper skeletal mineralization and bone density during growth [1,2,3]. It is essential for the production and activation of numerous enzymes and hormones that regulate digestion, fat metabolism, and energy metabolism [4,5,6]. Adequate calcium intake is essential for maintaining proper blood clotting, as calcium influences wound healing processes. Calcium interacts with other macronutrients during muscle contractions, including the heart muscle, promoting optimal muscle tone. Calcium is also essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system. Calcium deficiencies or excessively low blood calcium levels cause nerve cells to become hypersensitive. Tetany (painful muscle spasms) can occur, and is particularly dangerous for pregnant and perinatal bitches. Calcium also supports the release of neurotransmitters in the nervous system [7,8].
Vitamin D plays a crucial role in regulating calcium-phosphorus metabolism and bone mineralization [1,7,8]. It increases the absorption of these elements from the gastrointestinal tract and also balances abnormal calcium-to-phosphorus ratios [4,5]. Vitamin D facilitates the conversion of organic phosphorus to inorganic phosphorus, making it essential for ossification and the formation of compounds essential for bone formation. Vitamin D3 positively affects the immune system. It exhibits anti-inflammatory properties and positively influences the production of anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory cytokines, making it also useful in the treatment of allergies [1,9].
Zinc is one of the most important nutrients involved in bone metabolism and the proper functioning of the skeletal system. Zinc is an essential mineral required for proper skeletal growth and bone homeostasis. Dietary zinc deficiency causes developmental impairment, inhibits skeletal growth, and negatively impacts bone quality. Numerous scientific publications indicate that zinc also appears to support bone regeneration after trauma and fractures/surgical interventions. Zinc supplementation may also be important in the presence of osteoporosis [10,11].
Manganese is an essential trace element involved in many bodily processes, including bone formation. Manganese deficiency can impair bone formation and reduce bone mineral density, while manganese supplementation can increase both bone mineral density and support healthy bone formation [12].
