Description
Mirra-Cote is a nutritional supplement for dogs, cats, and horses that is rich in essential fatty acids (EFAs) and vitamins designed to improve skin and coat health. It is a palatable, nutty-flavored liquid emulsion that addresses conditions such as dull coats, dry, scaly skin, itchiness, and inflammation.
Key Benefits & Ingredients
Mirra-Cote contains an optimal blend of ingredients to promote a healthy and glossy coat:
- Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs): The supplement is rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, with an optimal ratio of 10:1 (or 5:1 in the BioZinc version) to help reduce inflammation, maintain skin moisture, and support skin repair. The EFAs are sourced from evening primrose oil, flaxseed oil, wheat germ oil, and marine fish oil.
- Vitamins: It includes essential vitamins A, D3, and E, which are vital for overall skin and coat health.
- Palatability: The nutty flavor makes it easy to administer either mixed in food or directly into the pet’s mouth.
- Steroid-Sparing Effect: Studies have shown that EFA supplementation can lead to a significant reduction in itching scores in pets with canine atopic dermatitis, potentially reducing the need for steroid use.
