The Science of Weider Pet Health

Weider Pet Health products are based on canine nutrigenomics (nutrient gene interaction). The nutrients selected and the formula ratios are based on scientific research provided by Nutraceutical Biochemist Franco Cavaleri who is leading the charge in nutrigenomics for animals. Franco’s work provides the foundation of our proactive wellness and therapeutic wellness solutions.

Much of the commercial dog food available today is over processed and nutritionally depeleted, the nutrients are no longer bioavailable (useable) by dogs and the fatty acids are oxidized. Just like our diets, if we don’t eat a healthy diet our health will suffer, the same is true for our pets. By supplying your pet with properly prepared nutrients Weider Pet Health can help establish a healthy foundation for your dog’s daily life. Weider Pet Health products are designed to provide nutrients that are important and in a usable form for your pet.

Many dogs are also prone to certain conditions genetically by breed or parents. By using supplements specifically designed to help conditions we can go a long way into preventing or slowing the development of these conditions and in some cases restore the animals health. Read below for summaries of our products.
