Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids, especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), are vital in regulating inflammation and allergic reactions in dogs. EPA metabolism through the lipoxygenase pathway generates leukotrienes (LTA5, LTB5) that are markedly less inflammatory compared to those from omega-6 fatty acids.

Mechanism of Action:

• Competes with omega-6 fatty acid pathways

• Produces less pro-inflammatory mediators

• Inhibits synthesis of inflammatory leukotrienes

• Modulates lipid-derived inflammation signals

Clinical Relevance:
Dietary omega-3 supplementation is an effective strategy to manage allergic dermatitis and inflammatory skin disorders in dogs by reducing inflammatory responses and supporting immune system balance.

Key Benefits:

• Reduces skin inflammation

• Decreases allergic reactions

• Supports immune system regulation

• Enhances overall skin health
