I have been reading up on Moringa for dogs as I received an biscuit recipe for that. Please see some of the benefits. How Does Moringa Work For Dogs?
Moringa has been used as a traditional medicine in Asian countries like the Philippines, Nepal, India, and Pakistan. Now, it is used to treat malnutrition, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. But, that is just for humans.
Now, is moringa good for dogs? Definitely, yes!
Apart from its hundreds of health benefits that Moringa gives to humans, it is also a great supplement for dogs. Here’s how it works for them:
Reduces skin irritations
Cuddling with your dog might have been one of the stress-relieving things to do. But what if it has skin/fur disease or irritations? Yikes! Moringa would be a perfect remedy for that!
It has a huge amount of anti-inflammatory content like phenolic acids, isothiocyanates, and flavonoids that can help reduce it! Your dog’s inflammation may also show a more serious health condition so do be aware of underlying issues. Moringa leaves, pods, and seeds (smaller dosage) can be a good source for that. It also contains free radicals and vitamins that can be beneficial to your pet.
Moringa Boosts immunity for Dogs and Pets
Its vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin E, iron, calcium, and other essential vitamins and minerals that can help your dog strengthen its physical attributes.
Just like humans, dogs are also sensitive to infections, viruses, bacteria, diseases, and illnesses. If Moringa has been used by health professionals in third world countries to enhance good nutrition and immunity, then it would also be beneficial for your pets too!
If your dog has poor immunity, it would be likely to be less active and unable to be a fun dog, and enjoy its life with you.
Regulates nervous system
A healthy nervous system is essential to your dogs wellbeing since it helps almost all health attributes and for your dog or pet to feel good emotionally. Moringa can help you achieve this through its mineral and vitamin contents like magnesium and phytol-pro.
These minerals and vitamins can reduce stress and produce “happy hormones” to your dogs that draw a rapid effect on producing a good and active temperament in them. It can also increase their performance and stamina daily. With that, you can effectively train your dogs in the park with great tricks!
Helps maintain good cholesterol level
Maintaining a good cholesterol level is not just applicable to humans, it is also needed for dogs, too! Moringa has been used traditionally for cardiotonic health issues.
Moringa has a hypercholesterolemic effect that was studied and showed significantly lowered cholesterol levels and reduced the atherosclerotic plaque formation in animals.
Plants or trees that have antioxidants, hypolipidaemic and antiatherosclerotic activities could be a good alternative to prevent cardiovascular issues in animals, especially your dogs.
Build muscles
If there is any natural remedy for calcium deficiency, it would be Moringa. Moringa contains more calcium than milk and bananas. Since dogs are physically active in nature, it is also essential for them to build stronger muscles and bones, thus, a need for a good amount of calcium in their body.
Moringa leaves or oils can be a good source of calcium. You just have to mix it in their meal or add a few drops of oil in their water. A 10 to 20 mg of Moringa daily would be fair enough to give essential vitamins and minerals to your dogs.
