Description

This product supports with: itching due to allergies or hypersensitivity, redness and irritated skin, insect bites or contact reactions, seasonal skin complaints and dry or sensitive skin. Suitable for dogs, cats and humans.

How does Itch Support work?

Itching in animals almost always has an inflammatory component. Allergen exposure, contact reaction, or immune activation leads to local histamine release and prostaglandin synthesis, which activates the itch receptor network (particularly TRPV1 receptors). Scratching intensifies the inflammatory cycle via skin damage and increased sensitization.

Itch Support works on multiple levels at once: copaiba (beta-caryophyllene) inhibits prostaglandin synthesis via CB2 receptor activity, blue tansy delivers chamazulene that modulates histamine-mediated responses, and helichrysum supports skin repair. Oat flour (avenanthramides) inhibits NF-kB signaling, a central switch in the inflammation process. Aloe vera supports the skin barrier and promotes hydration.
