How pet remedy works:

• The valerian absolute and other essential oils used in the pet remedy formula comprise highly

volatile oils, with tiny molecular structures (less than 500 atomic mass units), which makes them

very concentrated, aromatic, and able to cross the blood-brain barrier.

• pet remedy works with the pet’s own natural calming mechanism, GABA (gamma amino butyric acid), which is a natural calming agent present in all mammals, birds, and reptiles.

• So when a pet becomes stressed or anxious pet remedy helps fired-up nerve cells to think they are getting a message from the brain to calm. This is why it starts to help instantly. Explained by Dr. Flo Watt MRCPsych (Consultant Psychiatrist)

• pet remedy is low concentration and is therefore very gentle in its calming effect.

• Valerian absolute oil is obtained by cold extraction from the roots and rhizomes of the plant, Valeriana officinalis, and has been used for centuries as an effective and safe calming agent.

• Known compounds detected in valerian that may contribute to its method of action are:

Sesquiterpenes, Isovaleric acid, Valerenic acid, Valerenal, Valerenol

• We source our absolute oil from Europe where our valerian plants are grown organically using only manure as fertiliser.
