What is Adrenal Harmony Gold?

Adrenal Harmony Gold was developed by our holistic veterinarians to support your dog's adrenal hormone balance. The actions of the ingredients are: adaptogenic, antioxidant and they will also help the nervous system. These herbs are particularly suited to targeting the adrenal glands and its functions, but also exert an effect on the pituitary and hypothalamus glands. "Adaptogens" are a classification of herbs considered to support the adrenals, helping the body adapt naturally to stressors and produce normal, healthy levels of cortisol. Adaptogens help the adrenals normalize their hormone production. Antioxidants help maintain cellular structure and, thus, normal health.

Together, the ingredients in Adrenal Harmony Gold target key cellular mechanisms to help maintain balance.

What is Adrenal Harmony Gold used for?

Adrenal glands play a vital role in the health of your pet. The adrenal glands are two small glands situated on top of each kidney and they are involved in a multitude of physiological processes. The hypothalamus and pituitary glands are responsible for sending messages to the adrenals so they can secrete the right amount of hormones and maintain equilibrium within the body.

Some of the main adrenal gland functions are to:

• Help the body respond to stress and inflammation through their production of corticosteroid hormones (cortisol).
• Play an important role in regulating water and electrolyte balance (affects urine output and thirst).
• Produce hormones that affect blood sugar (affects appetite).

Adrenal Harmony Gold targets the HPA (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal) axis to normalise the body's internal feedback mechanisms. This, in turn, can affect areas of the body influenced by the adrenal glands.
