Cholodin For Dogs
Choline, Amino Acids, Vitamins & Minerals For Senior Pets
Cholodin by MVP Laboratories is the original choline-loading supplement formulated for geriatric canine and feline patients. Cholodin contains choline, amino acids, vitamins and minerals in a chewable tablet. May aid senior pets in the improvement of hearing, memory, muscle tone, alertness, hair coat and more.
Ocassionally, senior dogs and cats display clinical signs unexplained by a specific illness, including:
- Lethargy and reduced awareness of surroundings
- Poor coat, excessive shedding or thin, dry coat
- Chronic constipation or fecal incontinence
- Inappropriate urination
- Poor appetite or eating too little to maintain an appropriate normal body weight
- Poor mental acuity
Cholodin contains sources of choline and phosphatidylcholine, two of the most common phospholipids. When present in sufficient dietary quantities, these components act as neurotransmitter precursors, which are chemicals manufactured and released by nerve cells that initiate the sending of "messages" from those cells. Choline has four major functions:
- Significant dietary factor in preventing fatty liver syndrome diabetic dogs
- Can "donate" methyl groups (CH3) needed to synthesize4 other metabolic compounds
- Necessary for acetylcholine formation
- Component of the phospholipid, lecithin along with being a constituent of plamalogens, which are abundant in mitochondria and sphingomyelin, boud particularly in the brain
Cholodin may aid in the improvement of:
- Hearing
- Memory

- Hair Coat
