Oxidative stress is common in human and veterinary conditions and is associated with changes in glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels. In a randomized double-blinded control trial on healthy dogs, administration of a supplement containing S-acetyl-glutathione (SAG) and other antioxidants for 35 days increased GPx levels and positively affected liver blood parameters. These promising results suggest that further studies using the same supplement on dogs with liver conditions could confirm its antioxidant effects and potential to improve altered blood parameters.
Oxidative stress is common in several human and veterinary conditions and it is associated to alteration of the glutathione peroxidase (GPx) level. GPx is an enzyme present in erythrocytes, kidney, and liver and it has a role in protecting against oxidative damage. In this randomised double-blinded control trial on healthy dogs, we present findings indicating that the administration for a total of 35 days of a supplement containing S-acetyl-glutathione (SAG) alongside other antioxidant natural ingredients, leads to an increase in the GPx level. Furthermore, the supplement positively changes liver blood parameters, even in healthy dogs. These preliminary results hold promise for conducting new studies using the same supplement on dogs affected by liver conditions, thereby confirming its antioxidant effects and the potential improvement of altered blood parameters.
