Helping Your Dog Thrive at Every Age

Imagine this:

The morning light hits your dog’s fur as they leap off the couch, stretch, and shake. They look towards you, wagging their tail happily.

Their eyes are bright, their body is strong, and for a moment, you sit there thinking, this is what vibrant health looks like.

This is what we all want — seeing our dogs full of life, eager for walks, play, and connection. We all hope that by learning and doing our best, we will get the gift of extra time with our dogs.

And this is what led me to the creation of something new:

MitoBoost is the very first European-sourced NMN + TMG supplement made from natural ingredients and proven to have the potential to increase longevity.

Let’s take a quick look at cell biology…

Mitochondria are tiny power plants inside every cell, responsible for energy production, fuelling organs, repairing DNA, supporting immunity, defending against cancer, and maintaining overall body function.

Mitochondria

But as we and our dogs age, mitochondrial function naturally declines.

The good news? Science now shows that we can boost mitochondrial function by providing the right fuel.

This is where NMN and TMG come in. NMN to boost the production of an important co-enzyme in energy production called NAD (nicotinamide dinucleotide). TMG (trimethylglycine) is a source of methyl groups, which are also required for cell energy production.

This supports your dog feeling more energetic, recovering faster, and staying healthier.

Speaking of staying healthier, each month, I love sharing practical tips, science, and thoughts that pop up during my walks with Pax. Here’s what you might have missed from our latest videos and articles:

PLUS! Something really exciting is coming soon…

Dr. Karen Becker and I have spent a few months filming a project close to our hearts — one that could change how we care for dogs forever.

This is my invitation to join The Canine Hormone Health Video Series that will launch mid-November.

In this video series, we discuss questions we receive every day:
 • How do hormones impact our dog’s mood, joints, and longevity?
 • What’s the truth about spaying and neutering?
 • Can hormone replacement help senior dogs?

If you’ve ever felt confused or conflicted about your dog’s hormones, this is the place to start.
