For years, veterinarians have used the original Proanthozone® formula in atopic dogs and have achieved positive results, often using it as an adjunct to more conventional therapies. Nonetheless, allergies and skin diseases have maintained their position at or near the top of the list of reasons why owners take their pets to the veterinarian. New Proanthozone® Derm includes ingredients for enhanced dermatologic use, such as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, alpha-lipoic acid, and spirulina.
The basis of the formula is bioflavanol from grape seed extract. Polyphenolic antioxidants, such as bioflavanol, have been shown to help prevent mast cell degranulation and inhibit enzymes that promote histamine release, inflammation, and allergic reactions. Additional support comes from the antioxidant vitamins A and E and the antioxidant mineral zinc. Alpha-lipoic acid is a potent fat- and water-soluble antioxidant that is able to regenerate other antioxidants, such as vitamin E. Spirulina, a form of blue-green algae rich in beta carotene and vitamin E, enhances protective antibodies without enhancing those associated with allergies IgE antibodies. Spirulina also has a direct antihistamine effect. Omega fatty acids are an important addition to the formula for controlling inflammation and supporting healthy cell membranes.
