Although Jewel wasn't able to be on the supplement long enough to benefit her before she went to the Rainbow Bridge, we really feel that NuVet Plus is a fantastic product and wanted to share it with all of you.
About NuVet Plus
NuVet Plus contains human-grade natural ingredients and has no fillers, artificial flavors, or binding agents. The supplement is made in a human-grade FDA registered laboratory, so you can be assured that it is safe for your pet.
While many other nutritional supplements on the market undergo heat processing, NuVet Plus is cold processed in order to retain each ingredient's nutritional value. Some of the ingredients in NuVet Plus include:
- Amino acids: Amino acids are essential for brain function, stamina, immune fuction, and metabolism. They also help build new bone, muscle, and tendon cells.
- Beta carotene: Beta carotene helps fight skin conditions, respiratory infections, and fatigue. The body converts beta carotene into vitamin A as the body needs it. Vitamin A is an antioxidant that can help protect the body from cancer and other diseases.
- Taurine: Taurine is an important amino acid. It helps with the digestion of fats in the cat's small intestine. It helps prevent high cholesterol and is important for the heart muscle's health. It helps prevent diabetes and lowers blood pressure.
- Vitamin E: Vitamin E is another antioxidant, and it protects the cell structure against free radicals. It also improves wound healing, blood circulation, and the immune system. Vitamin E reduces the potential of developing heart disease, neurological abnormalities, and anemia.
- Shark cartilage (sourced from non-endangered sharks): Shark cartilage has been shown to help shrink cancerous tumors. It is also an anti-inflammatory agent that aids in the treatment of hip dysplasia and arthritis.
- Magnesium: Magnesium is important for maintaining bones, nerves, arteries, teeth and the heart. It also aids in the prevention of osteoporosis, heart disease, and certain types of cancers.
- Selenium: Selenium is a mineral necessary for tissue elasticity and the functioning of the pancreas. It plays an important part in fat metabolism and thyroid hormone regulation. When selenium is combined with vitamin E, it aids in maintaining a healthy liver and heart and helps in the production of antibodies. Additionally, it acts as a preventative for some types of tumors.
- Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic acid): Vitamine B5 has an important part in the formation of antibodies and the adrenal hormones. It is also necessary for proper gastrointestinal tract functioning.
Jewel's Experience
As many of you know, Jewel had chronic renal failure and severe arthritis. Kitties with chronic renal failure eventually lose their appetite as a result of the disease. NuVet Plus comes in powder form so that you can mix it into a cat's wet meals. Even though we often had to guess at what Jewel might eat and enjoy for her wet meals, she had no problems eating NuVet Plus mixed into her food. It didn't seem to bother her at all, which really impressed me.
While Jewel didn't get a chance to reap the benefits of this nutritional supplement, I would definitely recommend it to other kitty owners.

That looks like some pretty good and darn helpful stuff!
ReplyDeleteWe'd like to try this supplement. Thanks for the review and giveaway.
ReplyDeleteWe're not familiar with this brand, though we get our share of supplements. It looks like it could be quite beneficial; good luck to those who enter!
ReplyDeleteBinga and Boodie are senior cats and although they play with me lots, I bet they don't metabolize nutrients as well as I do, so I think they would benefit from this supplement!
ReplyDeleteAll of our seniors here would benefit from this product,we'd love to try!
ReplyDeleteThat food sounds great!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for helping us celebrate Raz's Gotcha Day!!

How interesting! Pierre is just starting to edge into senior-hood, and we are sure he would benefit from this.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a very interesting product ! Good luck to our US friends ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great product and I am sorry Jewel didn't get to reap the benefits. I am not entering because thankfully we don't need it right now.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of adding extra nutrition to my cats' diet. Just like with commercially prepared human food, it is hard to find commercial cat foods that have all the nutrition that cats need to thrive.
ReplyDeleteDat sounds like a weally cool purroduct.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Lexi
I would like my 4 year old Kitty to try this. I have been looking for something like this for her.

CONNIE SOWARDS commenting: I would like to give it to my 5 year old cat, Nala so she can stay healthy and strong. We just lost our other cat this past August.
ReplyDeleteI'd actually like to win this to send to my favorite animal rescue if you don't mind. Sue at Love For Mia (facebook page) takes in animals that were born with deformities and have basically no hope of making it past a few days. Most of the costs, including huge vet bills for scans and surgeries, comes out of her pockets and she doesn't turn a baby away. I think this could be very beneficial for her for her older cats that are still having too many health problems to be adopted out.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note- I was looking at this stuff the other day to get for my own 7 year old cat with digestive issues! I'm just waiting on the money so I can buy it. :)
Jewel is so cute. I am such a cat fanatic, I would love to win because I would love for my big boy Milo to be on a better food. He is also a little fat, :-)
ReplyDeleteI would like to win because we just started feeding a stray who could use better nutrition.
ReplyDeleteMy cat lily would love this, she is super high energy and needs all the extra support she can get
ReplyDeleteOur guys are getting older so we want to make sure they have the best nutrition possible.
ReplyDeleteI would so like to win NuVet Plus for my son's pet cat Tiger. Thank-you for a great giveaway
ReplyDeleteI would like to win bc my cat needs more nutrition
