Water and Electrolytes: Vital for LifeFluid balance in your pet, including how water is absorbed or secreted, is intrinsically linked to the concentration of certain molecules known as electrolytes. Even slight alterations in electrolytes can significantly impact hydration levels in the body and therefore the normal functioning of cells and organs.In healthy animals, regulatory mechanisms ensure minor daily variations in fluid and electrolytes have minimal impact on normal physiology. However excessive fluid and electrolyte loss, or significantly reduced intake, will rapidly disrupt this balance.Suitable for cats and dogs, this fast acting rehydration drink made using a yummy chicken flavour, can also be used as a prehydration, maintaining health and vitality. Oralade's unique combination helps maintain intestinal function and integrity too. Happy gut happy pet!DextroseA dual functioning simple sugar acting as an energy source for healthy intestinal cells and as a co-transporter to support and maintain electrolyte and fluid uptake during gastrointestinal disturbances.Sodium, Chloride, PotassiumAlong with dextrose, the perfect ratio of these essential electrolytes is necessary to formulate the perfect isotonic ORS. Enabling Oralade to support normal hydration in dogs and cats even when the usual homeostatic mechanisms may be disrupted.GlutamateMetabolised directly by enterocytes, glutamate is considered the most important fuel for intestinal tissue and therefore essential for maintaining normal intestinal motility and functionGlycineImportant for cell growth, protein synthesis, as a co-transporter, and in the formation of the antioxidant glutathione, glycine plays key roles in the maintenance of normal intestinal structure and intestinal mucosal protection.PrebioticsEasily digestible prebiotic fibres act as a nutrient source for beneficial microorganisms in the gut, helping to maintain a balanced and healthy microbiota. Furthermore, fermentation of prebiotics by gut bacteria produces short chain fatty acids (SCFA’s), the preferred energy source for intestinal cells.Purified Water – Oralade Ready to ServeOralade contains purified water to optimise voluntary uptake by dogs and cats and support fast, effective hydration.
