Ingredients in our products are in the indexed superfood categories. Flaxseed oil is a listed superfood as are some specific herbs used in our formulas. 

Yes. All of our unique herbal formulas have been approved by an independent UK conventional and holistic vet who specialises in herbal medicine.

Most commercial pet foods contain only small amounts of bioavailable nutrients, even those that are diet/breed specific. Most commercial dried foods have been through heating processes and so lose nutrients and vital essential fatty acids. They also contain lots of carbohydrates such as potatoes, peas, wheat, oats or rice which are high in starch and sugars, akin to refined foods that we eat. Feeding a fresh diet to your dog will support better health in your dog. Although labelled as a supplement, Proflax is a food additive that will support all aspects of your dogs health.

Proflax products offer numerous health benefits, rather than just supporting one aspect of health, as most supplements do. This is achieved with the inclusion of Omega 3 & 6 rich cold pressed flax seed oil or Omega 3 rich fish oil plus different herbal tincture blends to support various aspects of health. To achieve the same level of health care would mean selecting oils and different herbs which can be confusing and costly. We take the headache out of working out which oils and herbs to mix and as our herbal blends have been formulated by a holistic vet, they have been created to be effective in supporting all aspects of health and wellbeing. Every bottle contains between 20-25% volume of the herbal formula. As our ingredients are highly concentrated they work quickly in supporting the health of your dog. We focus on the holistic approach where the herbs selected help to support the health of both body and mind, which is unique for any 'ready prepared' product. Proflax products also prove to be more cost effective than buying individual supplements of the same quality.

Yes. You can feed your choice of Proflax oil with any of the powder or tincture products on the same day - just feed in different meals at opposite ends of the day. If you would like to feed two Proflax oils on the same day we suggesting feeding half of the recommended daily amount of each of the oils. Alternatively, you can feed the full recommended daily amount of each of your chosen oils on alternate days, so one oil on one day and the other the next. (It isnotadvisable to give the full recommended daily amount of two oils on the same day due to the concentration of the herbs, plus the overlap of support herbs in some of our formulas. 

 98% of dogs do! Flaxseed oil has a nutty flavour and one of the herbs that we include - liquorice - has a very sweet taste so this combination offers great palatability. 

Caution should be taken if your dog is taking blood thinners or modulators or is pregnant or nursing.  Some of our formulas aren't recommended if your dog is taking certain medication. Each product page under the 'Ingredients & Suitability' section will give this information where applicable. If you are at all concerned about giving Proflax then please ask your own vet for advice, giving them the full list of the herbal ingredients from your chosen formula. 

If your dog is taking another herbal based supplements that contains the same ingredients as your chosen Proflax formula then we do not suggest feeding them all on the same day. If you are feeding herbs that differ to your chosen Proflax formula then we suggest feeding them at a different time of day, i.e. in your dogs second meal of the day. If your other chosen supplements are not herbal they should be completely safe to be fed together. However, if you are unsure then please give us a call or ask your own vet for advice. 

Any supplement that has been through a manufacturing process generally loses a percentage of its nutritional composition and so doesn't offer the same benefits as pure, natural unprocessed ingredients as those found in our products. We add between 20 - 25% of concentrated active herbal extracts to each bottle to ensure that your dog is getting plenty of those vital, beneficial ingredients and nutrients; vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients. Our active herbal extracts are of practitioner grade quality with a ratio of 1:1 or 1:2 which means that they are powerful, but safe for your dog.

Yes. We advocate the preventative approach! Feed a product according to your dogs breed, lifestyle and life stage.

We always suggest that you check with your vet before giving Proflax if your dog is taking any type of prescribed medication. This is because on occasions, herbs can affect the absorption of certain drugs, so it may mean giving your dog Proflax at different times of the day (which is our recommended approach). There are also occasions where medication can change blood pressure or have an affect on the central nervous system or organs so it is imperative that your vet approves your chosen formula taking into account your dogs specific medication. Veterinary professionals will know all contraindications to the medications that they are prescribing.

our own vet will have a complete history of your dogs health and any underlying conditions. Although natural, herbs are powerful remedies that contain thousands of powerful bioactive compounds, so we would always suggest that you check with your vet before giving Proflax. They may ask for a list of the ingredients which can be found under the 'more information, ingredients and feeding guidelines' tab on each of the individual product pages.

We would always suggest that you consult your own vet or qualified animal nutritionist if in doubt whether to feed Proflax natural supplements to a dog with pancreatitis. Our Tummy Tastic powder provides gut and pancreas support so is ideal to feed.

No. We do not recommend that you give our supplements to dogs who are pregnant or nursing or puppies under the age of 8 weeks old.

We suggest that you stop feeding Proflax for 5 days before an operation. We would also suggest discussing your dogs care plan with your vet who will be able to offer specific guidance regarding feeding pre and post op.

As our ingredients are fresh, concentrated, active and in liquid form ready to add to food, they are absorbed immediately which means that the supportive health benefits can be seen in a matter of days in some dogs, but in others, it may take a little longer. However, from day 1 your dog will benefit from the specific support of your chosen product.

Herbs, especially those in tincture form, have some amazing health benefits. The bioactive compounds help with the assimilation of nutrients and will support good health and wellbeing. They also provide trace vitamins and minerals so are nutritionally beneficial.

es. An independent DEFRA approved laboratory intermittently tests our formulas using strict protocols. They are tested to ensure that the essential fatty acids in our flaxseed oil remain rancid free and that the complete formulas are free from pesticides, bacteria (E. coli/salmonella), fungi or any other chemicals. This independent testing is ongoing in order to maintain our quality and service standards.

Proflax oils need to be stored in the fridge once opened, and once opened, it will remain fresh for 8 weeks. Use within the expiry date shown on every bottle/tub. Powder formulas have a 12 months shelf life and tinctures 24 months and need to be stored in a dry, cool, moisture free environment.
