A dog can&#039;t tell you it&#039;s unwell, and many interactions only show up in blood tests. This page does not replace a diagnosis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kurz\"><b>In short<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"kt\">Of the five listed here, only one has truly good studies on dogs: green-lipped mussel. Omega-3 follows closely behind. Turmeric, ginger, and milk thistle are plausible and traditional, but the evidence is weak. And the most effective thing costs nothing: a dog of the right weight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<section>\n<h2><span>The principle<\/span>Why nothing can be transferred one-to-one<\/h2>\n<p class=\"satz\">A dog is not a small person, and a cat is not a small dog.<\/p>\n<p>Three things are different, and all three are the reason for the caution on this page. First, the quantity: A Beagle weighs one-fifth of you, a Chihuahua one-thirtieth. Therefore, every measurement must be considered per kilogram, never as &quot;a teaspoon.&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, there&#039;s the breakdown process in the liver. Cats largely lack an enzyme pathway that humans and dogs use to neutralize many plant substances \u2013 glucuronidation. This is why paracetamol is fatal to cats and why essential oils have no place around them, not even in a diffuser. Dogs are more robust in this respect, but not immune.<\/p>\n<p>Thirdly, the diet. Dogs are omnivores with a preference for meat and can digest plant-based foods well \u2013 for example, they produce taurine themselves. Therefore, supplementing a dog&#039;s diet with plant-based ingredients is a matter of practicality, whereas for cats it is often a question of safety.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<h2><span>In detail<\/span>The five that are on this page<\/h2>\n<p>Sorted by availability, not popularity. The colored label tells you how thoroughly each item has been researched.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pf\">\n<div class=\"ob\">\n<h3>Green-lipped mussel<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"lat\">Perna canaliculus<\/span><span class=\"stufe sg\">Well-filled<\/span><\/div>\n<p>The most thoroughly researched natural remedy on this site. In several placebo-controlled studies on dogs with osteoarthritis, mobility and pain levels improved measurably \u2013 moderately, not dramatically, but reproducibly. The effect is attributed to the omega-3 fatty acids and glycosaminoglycans it contains.<\/p>\n<p>Things to know: It takes time. The studies ran for six to twelve weeks; nothing can be assessed before then. And it&#039;s a supplement to pain therapy, not a replacement \u2013 a dog with arthritic pain needs both.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wz\"><b>Not at<\/b> Known shellfish allergy. And if your dog is on blood thinners, talk to the vet beforehand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pf\">\n<div class=\"ob\">\n<h3>Omega-3 from fish or algae oil<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"lat\">EPA \/ DHA<\/span><span class=\"stufe sg\">Well-filled<\/span><\/div>\n<p>For joints, skin, and coat, this supplement has the broadest data available. Controlled studies have shown improved resilience in dogs with osteoarthritis; the effect is weaker, but present, in cases of itchy, inflamed skin.<\/p>\n<p>Dosage is based on body weight and EPA content, not oil quantity \u2013 this is where products on the shelf diverge. Introduce the supplement slowly, otherwise you&#039;ll get loose stools. And store it in a cool, dark place: rancid oil is worse than no oil at all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pf\">\n<div class=\"ob\">\n<h3>Milk thistle<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"lat\">Silymarin<\/span><span class=\"stufe sm\">Solid tradition<\/span><\/div>\n<p>Silymarin is well-established in veterinary medicine, including in the emergency treatment of death cap mushroom poisoning in dogs \u2013 though in that case, it is administered intravenously and in a hospital setting. For routine liver support, there are review articles and considerable experience, but few large controlled studies.<\/p>\n<p>It is not a preventative measure for healthy dogs. It only makes sense if a veterinarian has observed elevated liver values \u2013 and then only as part of a treatment plan, not as a standalone measure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pf\">\n<div class=\"ob\">\n<h3>turmeric<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"lat\">Curcuma longa<\/span><span class=\"stufe sd\">Thinly covered<\/span><\/div>\n<p>In veterinary medicine reviews, curcumin is attributed with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, especially for joint problems. However, robust studies in dogs are scarce, and the same problem exists as in humans: curcumin is poorly absorbed. Very little of it is absorbed without fat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wz\"><b>Be careful<\/b> Biliary tract diseases, bleeding tendencies, treatment with blood thinners, and a predisposition to oxalate kidney stones. In these cases, only after consulting a veterinarian.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pf\">\n<div class=\"ob\">\n<h3>Ginger<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"lat\">Zingiber officinale<\/span><span class=\"stufe sd\">Thinly covered<\/span><\/div>\n<p>Gingerols have a mild anti-inflammatory effect; traditionally, ginger is used for travel sickness and minor digestive problems. While research on its use in dogs is limited, its application in small amounts is considered safe.<\/p>\n<p>Practically speaking, this means: a pinch of freshly grated ginger mixed into the food, nothing more. Most dogs don&#039;t particularly like it anyway \u2013 there&#039;s no reason to force it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<h2><span>Practice<\/span>Quantities, getting started, and how you know it&#039;s too much.<\/h2>\n<p>The following points are guidelines based on veterinary literature, not prescriptions.
