What is Healthy
Bones?
Healthy Bones is a
calcium phosphorus supplement with added vitamins and micro-nutrients to
achieve the best results.
When and how long
should I continue to supplement with Healthy Bones?
Healthy Bones
should be used during the fast growth stage of puppies and kittens, healing
bones and/or pets on raw diets. Another critical time is during nursing.
I understand that
too much calcium is extremely detrimental to bone growth development, is that
correct?
Yes and No. If the
product you use has an improper ratio of calcium to phosphorus then you can
make deficiencies worse! Calcium to phosphorus ratio, vitamins and
micro-nutrients are very important and Healthy Bones is formulated based on
these needs.
Do I need to
supplement my small dog with Healthy Bones?
Whether large or
small, your dog will go through the fast growth phase. Often the small breeds
with deficiencies end up with stress fractures.
I have been assured
that the food I am feeding my dog is nutritionally complete. Why do I need to
supplement with Healthy Bones?
Remember, dog foods
play on averages as each pet is different. So too little for some might be just
right for others. There are too many variables to take into consideration when
it comes to diets. Think of supplements as insurance, this way you know you're
covered if the diet isn't adequate.
Should cats take
calcium as well?
Use Healthy Bones
Granules for your cats. Cats tend to have less issue with calcium deficiency,
but
Can taking calcium
during pregnancy cause my pet's body to reduce calcium production?
NEVER supplement
calcium during pregnancy!! It doesn't reduce your pet's calcium production, but
it does make their body lazy when it comes to utilizing calcium.
Are they water
soluble?
No, if you need non
solid form use Oral Cal Plus which is in gel form.
