Frequently Asked Questions

Let us remember that the most important thing is absorbency!
One might say, “Animals are what they suck.” For this reason, it is a good idea to make sure that the product you consume is in an absorbable form, and that the body has the ability to utilize the beneficial ingredients of the omega nutritional oil. We introduced the possibility of measuring the levels of essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in the blood brought by food and omega nutrient oil. Another thing that gets commendable feedback from animal owners is ease. One product for the whole family, regardless of race and age.

Most omega-3 products contain only fish derived omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) or only plant-based omega-3 fatty acids (ALA). Effektri increases the proportion of EPA and DHA fatty acids in the diet, which increases the omega-3 index in cats, dogs and horses, thus providing protection against inflammatory diseases. Effektr's excellent absorbency is based on carefully selected human quality ingredients that combine the best of the Arctic and Mediterranean diets. The data obtained in the studies are the basis for Effektr, in which the polyphenols of extra virgin olive oil are combined with the EPA and DHA fatty acids of refined and high-quality wild fish oil in a way that allows the animal to safely and effectively restore and maintain a normal omega-3 fatty acid balance in the body permanently. This balance is an important part of “restoring and maintaining” a normal omega-6/omega-3 balance, safely and effectively. The Effektri product family also includes an analytics service (DBS test), which can reliably measure, for example, whether there is a need for an oil supplement and whether the product in use is absorbed for the benefit of the body.

Omega fatty acids are the most important building blocks of the cell and the cell's protective membrane, so it is of paramount importance to take care of the intake of high-quality fatty acids daily.

Not when the oil is properly protected. You may have come across blog posts, posts on Social Media, or animal nutrition trainings advising you to avoid omega-products stored in plastic packaging. Below is a correction in the light of the investigation concerning the storage of Effektr only in the plastic and aluminium packaging we use. Food safety

Starting with the first steps. Start with moderate doses. (Change the dosage to the dose counter for a one-year-old dog at the latest.) Check the dosage according to kg body weight: DOSE COUNTER We recommend combining the dosage with an organic diet and genre-specific environmental factors.

If an allergy is suspected, then often people, as well as animals, are more allergic to fish protein, not fish fat. Rub some fish oil into the paw/sensor/foot of the dog or horse, or anywhere else where the skin/skin is on display. The skin reacts quickly if the animal is allergic to fish oil. If symptoms do not appear, then start dosing according to the instructions.

The accumulation of slag substances in the joints can cause pain and inflammation. With regular dosing of the oil, positive changes have been observed in terms of symptom relief. Studies show that EPA, which is part of omega-3 fatty acids, relieves pain and removes inflammation from joints. Regular light exercise and a healthy organic diet support healing.

It is good to know that omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are also obtained from industrially prepared food. However, by adding Effen to the daily diet, there is no risk of overdose. Often the quality and quantity of fats in industrial preparations may be insufficient to meet the needs of the animal. If, for example, your dog has a rash, itching, allergies or joint symptoms, it is worth checking the diet and environmental factors.

Raw food, barf and organic feeding are often good choices when it comes to your dog's health. Various industrial dry foods or raw products can often be produced or separated from farmed animals. Feed products that are not part of the animal's natural diet may be used for feeding farmed animals. Exceptions are game animals e.g. deer, moose, reindeer. The body fat composition of these animals is natural and eating them contributes to the natural balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids in the pet's body.

Antioxidants are most commonly used to protect fish oil from “oxidation,” that is, pollution. For the sensitive components of fish oil, the poison is oxygen, light and heat. The polyphenols of cold-pressed virgin olive oil used in Effektr protect fish oil from oxidation in the body for more than a day. Extra virgin olive oil has another, at least as important, function at the cellular level. The main active ingredients of olive oil hydroxytyrosol, squalene and oleuropein modify the fatty acid profile of the cell membrane and displace excess arachidonic acid, thereby reducing the risk of low-grade inflammation. Effektr additionally contains vitamin E, which acts as an antioxidant, d-alpha tocopherol, in bioactive form. Effektr has excellent oxidation stability.

Virgin olive oil is a natural oil obtained from fresh olives using mechanical cold pressing. Before cold pressing, olives are pressed into a pile without heating or solvents. Virgin olive oil is fruity in taste and naturally contains a large amount of bioactive polyphenols.

EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) has approved the following health claim for bioactive polyphenols in olive oil (Commission Regulation (EU) 432/2012): “Olive oil polyphenols contribute to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress. La claima può essere usato solo per oliva, contenuto a meno 5 mg di hydroxytyrosol e le derivativi (e. g. oleuropein complex e tyrosol) per 20 g di olivo. In order to bear the claim information shall be given to the consumer that the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 20 g of olive oil.”

Essential fatty acids take care of many of the functions necessary for the normal physiological health of cats, dogs and horses. Absorbable and well protected from oxidation, the fatty acid preparation has a large number of positive effects on the daily well-being of animals. Omega-3 fatty acids of fish origin are important for the formation of a normal and balanced ratio of pro- and anti-inflammatory fatty acids in the body of cats, dogs and horses. In addition, omega-3 fatty acids are important for natural and healthy growth and development. Several scientific studies show that omega-3s (EPA and DHA) are important for heart and vascular health, the development of the pup's nervous and muscular system, cognitive health (memory, learning), and mood and behavior control (disruptive behavior, aggression towards other dogs). Omega-3 fatty acids support the development of skeletal structure in puppy dogs. DHA plays an important role in the development of the brain and vision. A balanced ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids supports natural resistance as well as balances the endocrine system.

Yes you can, energy waste included. An empty 1000ml bottle can be used for redosing, for example, if you buy a 5000ml Equi pack.

Yes it can, like all dog chewy treats. Effe Chews at its best wears off little by little while the dog is working on it. However, if you feel that the bone is too hard, then you can soften it in the microwave. Depending on the micro, 10-60sec.

Effe Chews is fermented and lactose-free, so it even cheers up the intestines. Effe Chews is a healthy chewy treat.

There is no patent answer to this, but here are our recommended sizes based on experience:

S: 0-5kg
M: 5-15kg
L: 15-30kg
XL: 30-50kg

More suitable for puppy dogs would be to offer those made from Cheese Bone Dogcorneja. They are more porous, but nevertheless offer a suitable resistance. Softening the cheese bone, e.g. in the microwave, is also a good way to ensure the appropriate hardness for the bone.

Butter, of course, when milk is lactose free and fermented. Effe Chews Cheese bones and Dogcorn are healthy and beneficial thanks to fermentation. Among other things, bones contain a lot of protein and calcium, from which dogs benefit significantly.
