Bio-Cardio
small animal cardiac support


support cardiac muscle function
promote oxygen utilization
enhance physical stamina


According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, one in 10 dogs suffers from poor cardiovascular health. Although some dogs have a genetic predisposition to cardiovascular problems, other factors such as nutritional deficiencies and obesity can certainly contribute.


A number of dietary supplements, including coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), vitamin E, L-carnitine, taurine, potassium, and magnesium have generated positive research results in helping to maintain a healthy heart. In addition, various botanical substances can provide cardiac support.


Bio-Cardio for small animals combines the antioxidant and cardio-protective qualities of CoQ10 with other cardio-protective nutrients and botanicals. Research on CoQ10 in animals demonstrates it promotes the heart's oxygen utilization and helps maintain a healthy myocardium.


Certain amino acids are essential to cardiac function. Supplementation of taurine for supporting healthy cardiac function in cats has been well established, because unlike humans and dogs, cats do not make taurine. Thus, in the feline population, taurine is considered an essential amino acid. L-carnitine is essential for cellular energy production in the mitochondria and supports muscle metabolism, including the heart muscle. Supplementation has been shown to improve appetite and exercise tolerance in dogs. Dimethylglycine enhances oxygen usage and improves muscle metabolism.


Vitamin E provides essential antioxidant activity in fat-soluble tissues; selenium is a necessary cofactor for glutathione peroxidase. Maintaining a healthy level of antioxidants to balance oxidative stress is essential for all tissues of the body, including the heart.


Magnesium and potassium are essential minerals for healthy cardiac contractility and maintaining already normal heart rhythm; magnesium is essential for regulating vascular smooth muscle tone. Deficiencies of these two minerals often occur concurrently; therefore, it is essential to replete both of them.


Botanicals in Bio-Cardio include Crataegus, Tribulus, and Terminalia, which contribute to healthy heart muscle function, and Eleutherococcus, an adaptogen, which promotes physical stamina.

Overall Rating for Bio-Cardio (for Dog and Cats) 120 Capsules
(based on 3 reviews)
Bio-Cardio has lessened the coughing in my 12 year old miniature Poodle
By JoAnn S. from Pennsylvania on December 1, 2011
My 12 year old poodle was recently diagnosed with an enlarged heart. He had started with periodic coughing just recently. I started with the Bio-Cadio several weeks ago and he seems to be coughing less. Hopefully, it will will give him added years with us. I have also noticed he has increased energy in our daily walks. He seems to be keeping up quite well with our 2 year old Maltese, Bella.
Pros:
Increased energy
less coughing
Cons:
Capsule is a little large for swallowing but I open it and sprinkle it over my Poodle's food.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Cardiac Support for Dogs
By DONNA J WARLICK from San Diego, CA on March 2, 2011
My three Cavalier King Charles Spaniels all have heart murmurs. My wholistic vet says she has had several dogs whose murmurs were completely eliminated by the use of Bio-Cardio. I don't know if it works yet, but the company I ordered it from was speedy and well priced.

I would recommend this item to a friend.
