New & improved tablet formulation
One of Dorwest's best sellers for 60 years, and a fundamental Dorwest Herbs 'staple' product, Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets are packed full of natural active compounds to promote general health. They have recently been given a makeover so they are now better than ever - gentler on the tummy and more palatable, so even the most sensitive dogs can enjoy the positive results these tablets bring.
The reformulation includes a change from garlic oil to black aged garlic extract, which brings a whole host of additional benefits while minimising the chance of side effects.
How can garlic and fenugreek help my dog?
Black aged garlic and fenugreek are both packed full of powerful health-promoting compounds to help naturally support your pet in a variety of ways:
General health - high in antioxidants, to neutralise free radicals, helping to maintain general cell health, as well as compounds that are proven to help the body remain strong against disease, parasites and infectious agents such as bacteria
Immunity - help to stimulate and develop a strong immune system
Skin - high in antioxidants, which are calming and help to maintain skin health, as well as compounds that assist the skin's natural defences against infections and parasites
Joints - helps to maintain comfort and mobility
Why black aged garlic?
Dorwest don’t take the decision to reformulate one of their most loved products lightly, but they always want their supplements to be the best that they can, and the benefits of changing to black aged garlic extract were too good to miss!
These include:
Less allicin - reduces the offensive garlic odour to help palatability, is gentler on the tummy and minimises the risk of side effects
Increased antioxidants - the fermentation process to create black aged garlic increases the antioxidant concentration. These neutralise free radicals and have positive effects across the body
Provides supportive, soothing and cleansing effects across various body systems, as well as helping to maintain the body's defences against parasites and infectious agents
Contains compounds which naturally repel fleas, ticks and mites
How do Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets help my pet’s skin?
Healthy skin is a vital first line of defence against disease and an essential part of a happy pet, so skin problems can be a real source of misery! Unfortunately, they are common, with a wide range of potential causes – but Dorwest Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets can help!
Garlic and fenugreek contain active compounds which promote healthy skin, making our tablets ideal for supporting dogs with sensitive or compromised skin. They help the body remain strong against disease, parasites and infectious agents such as bacteria, and contain amino acids that are essential for skin turnover and repair. Both black aged garlic and fenugreek have high levels of antioxidants, which neutralise free radicals, to have a calming and soothing effect on the skin.
Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets are particularly effective when used in combination with our Green Releaf® Tablets.
How do I give Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets?
Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets should be given daily, ideally splitting the total daily amount to give half in the morning and half in the evening. They can be given with or without food.
Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets should be given for at least a month and can be used long-term to help maintain a strong immune system - so your dog is ready to fight off whatever life throws at them.
For skin conditions it’s best to use for at least a month before expecting to see the full beneficial effects (as skin takes about three weeks to regenerate in dogs). If you know your dog suffers with their skin at particular times, for example due to pollen allergies, you can start using our Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets a month before. Using with our Green Releaf® Tablets can help maximise results.
If you're a loyal Garlic & Fenugreek user then the number of tablets you need to give your dog will stay the same with the updated product. We have carefully calculated the reformulation so the amount of garlic your dog will receive is the same, so you'll continue to see the great effects, but with some added benefits.
Should I be worried about garlic toxicity?
You may have been told that garlic is toxic to dogs and so wonder why we sell garlic products specifically for them? It's true that garlic can be toxic to our pets but like with many things, it comes down to how much and how it is administered. Even people can experience some nasty side effects if they consume too much garlic!
Dorwest take the safety of their products very seriously, from ingredient selection, through to rigorous audits of any reported side effects. Of the few mild side effects that have been reported for our Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets, most were related to tummy upsets, which is why Dorwest made the decision to use black aged garlic, rather than garlic oil when reformulating these tablets. Black aged garlic is known to help minimise the risk of side effects, be gentler on the tummy and also have additional health benefits when compared to fresh garlic extracts.
Dorwest garlic-containing products are developed to allow you to administer a consistent, measured amount of garlic to your dog, so that they can enjoy the many benefits of garlic and you can have peace of mind. A recent study demonstrated that giving garlic extract to dogs, at a much higher amount than that found in Dorwest products, had no adverse effects.
