For all dogs, add to every meal. If you are adding Augustine’s SuperBoost into your dog's diet or making Augustine's SuperFood, you do not need to add additional turmeric powder.
Curcumin found in turmeric has a low absorption rate and therefore a rather low bioavailability, thus requiring an activator for consumers to obtain its benefits. While black pepper is the most well known activator, we believe that our Lecithin Powder is far more powerful. If you are already feeding Augustine’s SuperBoost with our Raw Coconut Oil, you are indeliberately feeding your dog the highest quality Golden Paste available.
Anti-inflammatory
Curcumin found in turmeric is believed to be a potent anti-inflammatory, according to professionals at the University of Florida's Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital. This can be helpful for painful inflammatory conditions.
Beneficial to the liver
Curcumin is believed to stimulate bile production in the liver, essential to the digestion of dietary fats. As working dogs need their diets to consist of at least 20 percent fat, healthy bile production is paramount to good health. Pregnant, nursing and underweight dogs also need a diet fairly high in fat, which means they need healthy bile production to digest it all.
Antioxidant
Antioxidants are substances such as vitamin C or E that remove potentially damaging agents, called free radicals, from the body. Free radicals can wreak havoc in the body and possibly lead to such conditions as cardiovascular disease and cancer. Dogs need antioxidants just as humans do to mitigate this free radical damage. There are many options for providing antioxidants to your dog, including fruits and vegetables. The active ingredients in turmeric, though, will also provide an antioxidant boost to your dog’s food.
