Max Relax is designed for dogs that need support to calm down and feel secure in challenging or unfamiliar situations. Contains tryptophan, thiamine (B1), and magnesium.
Tryptophan is an amino acid used in the body's natural processes and is part of the formation of serotonin and melatonin. The product also contains thiamine and magnesium that work together in several of the body's normal functions.
Max Relax can be used as a daily supplement or before situations that may be perceived as stressful for the dog.
Tryptophan, thiamin and magnesium
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid which, with the help of magnesium and thiamine, forms the body's own substances serotonin and melatonin.
Serotonin is a messenger of the body's signals, a so-called neurotransmitter. It affects, among other things, thoughts, feelings and how things are experienced. Problems with a neurotransmitter can lead to a deteriorating mood.
Dogs that exhibit anxiety, impulsivity and unwanted mood-related behaviors have been shown to have lower serotonin levels than normal.
Max Relax contains, among other things, a high level of tryptophan. Studies have shown that a diet containing a higher amount of tryptophan has been able to raise the level of serotonin in the blood of anxious dogs.
Like serotonin, melatonin affects the dog's mood, but its sleep and ability to relax are also affected.
Which dogs can eat Max Relax?
Max Relax can be used for all adult dogs. Max Relax can be given both as a daily supplement and as a temporary supplement during special periods such as New Year's or travel. Can also be given to dogs with upset stomachs.
