The root cause of many common health problems and diseases (arthritis, allergies, cancer, dental issues, gastrointestinal problems) is actually inflammation. While inflammation is a crucial part of a dog’s healthy immune system and response (it releases white blood cells to the tissue in the body to kickstart the healing process), when that inflammation becomes chronic, it begins to cause issues. For example, chronic inflammation within the digestive system can cause diarrhea, vomiting, weight loss and nutritional deficiencies.

Its powerful anti-inflammatory properties (curcumin works to reduce the levels of two inflammation-causing enzymes in the body) mean that it’s a fantastic ingredient for combatting many of the issues that inflammation can cause.
