CALMING assists rabbits as it helps alleviate stress related behavior problems. Calming soothes your rabbit without affecting your rabbit’s personality or energy level. It can be used daily
or as needed to support relaxation.
It contains a combination of factors not found in other calming
formulas such as Colostrum Calming Complex, L-Theanine and
Thiamine (Vitamin B1), which all address stress and relaxation.
HOW THE CALMING FORMULA HELPS RABBITS:
- Supporting the rabbit is the Colostrum Calming Complex. This is taken from colostrum proteins, a range of bioactive proteins that have been found to assist cognitive function and stress reduction. The colostrum calming complex is isolated from the proteins and works synergistically with the L-Theanine in the formula to promote relaxation and cognition.
- L-Theanine is a naturally occurring amino acid found in green tea and a derivative of glutamic acid, a neurotransmitter in the brain. Glutamic acid helps the rabbit produce a variety of calming amino acids such as Dopamine, GABA and Tryptophan, and helps bring certain neurotransmitters into better balance. L-Theanine supports calming and relaxation, and reduces irritability and low mood states caused by unbalanced chemicals in the rabbit's brain. Also, L-Theanine has been extensively studied for its ability to help curb destructive behavior.
- B vitamins help manage stress in rabbits and help maintain normal disposition. Vitamin B1 or Thiamine, has been shown to affect the central nervous system beneficially by helping calm and relax anxious rabbits. Because thiamine is not stored in the body, increased activity, stress, illness, or increased metabolism deplete its levels in the rabbit. Thiamine deficiencies debilitate a rabbit causing mental confusion, muscular weakness, muscle spasms, nervousness, and weight and appetite loss during periods of stress.
CALMING cares for your rabbit without any herbal ingredients (Kava Kava,
Valerian, St. John’s Wort etc.) or L-Tryptophan. Its will not
cause side effects, addiction, drowsiness, or impaired motor skills.
