Give your small pets an essential, laboratory-grade health foundation with the Oxbow Natural Science Vitamin C Supplement. Vitamin C deficiency is the most common yet highly preventable nutritional issue in guinea pigs, often leading to a serious condition known as scurvy. Formulated with a stabilized, high-potency dose of ascorbic acid on a premium, long-strand Timothy hay baseline, these chewable tablets guarantee your pet receives their precise daily nutrient requirements. This daily supplement is an invaluable preventative tool to support overall well-being, bolster immune defenses, accelerate wound healing, and provide vital antioxidant protection during times of environmental stress, illness, or post-surgical recovery.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Delivers a precise, guaranteed dose of 25 mg of stabilized Vitamin C per tablet to entirely eliminate the guesswork of water-soluble powders that quickly lose potency or spoil the taste of your pet’s water bowl.
- Provides essential immune-enhancing and structural tissue support to prevent clinical signs of scurvy, including rough coat, bleeding gums, delayed healing, and joint pain.
- Rich in natural antioxidants to fight cellular damage and support your pet’s natural defense systems during periods of stress, illness, or medical recovery.
- Built on a high-fiber Timothy grass baseline to naturally stimulate gastrointestinal motility and safely match the complex digestive needs of small herbivores.
