OCUHEALTH

Free radicals or reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced continuously in the body as a consequence of normal metabolic processes, as well as derived from external factors such as sun exposure, environmental conditions and other polluting agents. There is a complex defense system that allows a balance between the production of ROS and the activation of antioxidants, which protect against oxidative damage.

Under certain conditions, such as poorly balanced diets, advanced age or situations with increased ROS generation, the antioxidant system is not sufficient to block all oxidative stress and can cause tissue damage. The eye is precisely an organ that is highly exposed to huge levels of oxidative stress, thus requiring a high level of antioxidants to maintain oxidative balance.

OcuHealth is a complementary feed for cats and dogs that provides ingredients with antioxidant activity to promote optimal eye health. Its formula is based on alpha lipoic acid, the universal antioxidant. It is a molecule soluble in both water and fat, which gives it a very special characteristic: it can act both on the cell membrane and inside the cell. It acts as an antioxidant in both its oxidized and reduced form.
