Epigenetic Nutritional Therapy for Animals - Vivo Series

Nutrition and exercise are among the most well-known environmental epigenetic factors that influence developmental and functional lifestyles, with potential beneficial or detrimental effects on human health status. Numerous studies have reported the epigenetic effects of diet on human phenotype and disease susceptibility throughout life.

When it comes to animals, the level of research into the epigenetic effect of feed is nowhere near as developed and well-researched yet. VetCur is the first company worldwide to use epigenetic nutritional therapy as our primary tool to optimize the quality of life of animals from the very beginning.

In general, all food affects the body as a whole, as the body is built, maintained and repaired by the food available to it. In terms of using nutrition therapeutically, it's important to understand that there are feedstuffs that are rich in bioactive components that contribute to key epigenetic processes that help the body maintain or restore health balance.

Epigenetics does not involve changes in DNA sequence, but control of gene activity (phenotype). Nutrients can switch genes on and off, thereby altering/transforming/balancing the activity of critical genes involved in physiological and pathological processes, including embryonic development, weight, organ and system function, aging and the gradual breakdown of healthy processes.

In this respect, nutritional epigenetics is a highly effective, innovative and safe tool to contribute to animal welfare.

The Vivo series consists of five products for pets that provide epigenetic building blocks for five important areas. The Vivo series can be used in combination with our other complementary and complete food products, and can be fed individually as needed:
