It dates back to when the first distillers discovered this technique to extract essential oils from leaves and flowers. The artefacts found in Egypt dating 3000 years B.C are proof thereof. Perfume is a fragrant composition that plays a very important role in expressing personal wellbeing and expressing your true character. Fragrances can contain the essence of a single plant, or of a few plants or even 200 essences. 36 Why use perfume for cats and dogs? Cats and dogs are full-fledged members of our family and take part of our every-day life. This lifestyle, is far from what their ancestors were used to. Because our home is also their home, pets should have a pleasant or at least, not unpleasant odour. Depending on the breed and depending on the type of hair, production of sebum that is necesary when living outdoors, is necessary to protect against rain, fungi, insects and irritations. Sebum is a fatty substance, produced unfortunately by dogs who live in the home where it is hot in summer or winter, that tends to generate unpleasant odors. For these reasons, it is very important to take proper care of our dog by following regular hygiene procedures: wash the dog with a specific sebum regulating dog shampoo, such as OFFICINALIS shampoo and use natural perfumes, that contain only certified natural essential oils. The cat and dog are able to detect smells forty times better than us, therefore spraying strong perfumes, in high doses, made with strong chemicals, can be very disturbing for cats and dogs. This is why sometimes animals rollaround in dirt. Essential oil is a natural compound found in leaves and flowers, but the most important thing is that animals recognise and like these smells. It is not rare to see a dog rolling in the grass or rubbing against certain plants, such as rosemary and sage, plants with a fragrance that repels fleas and insects. Essential oils have been used both as perfume and as a skin treatment, since ancient Egypt. OFFICINALIS® has developed five fragrances based only on natural essential oils (animals do not like synthetic perfumes or chemical essences) that benefit the skin and hair. It can be used on our pets for their pleasure and ours. OFFICINALIS® perfume does not contain alcohol. 37 EAU DE PARFUM Officinal Gardens Pleasant, fresh essences of officinal plants make this fragrance familiar, and not surprisingly, pleasant.

Package 200 ml 86 What is atopic dermatitis Atopic dermatitis in dogs is the second most common form of skin allergy after allergic dermatitis caused by flea bites. This disorder affects 3% to 15% of dogs (it is rare in cats) and usually occurs in pets aged 1 to 3 years. Some dog breeds such as German Shepherd, Boxer, Labrador Retriever, Cairn Terrier, West Highland White Terrier, Fox Terrier, Irish Setter, Poodle and Miniature Schnauzer, are especially prone to this form of dermatitis that occurs with a similar frequency in mixed breeds as well. Atopic dermatitis appears to be almost always inherited. Atopic dermatitis occurs as a result of the reaction of the immune system of Dogs hypersensitive to external allergens (type I hypersensitivity). The most common allergen which can lead to the onset of atopic dermatitis are pollens, moulds, feathers, dust and mite residue. The route by which most frequent allergens are introduced in the organism is by inhalation. The main consequence of this is a generalised allergic skin reaction. In some cases the onset of rhinitis and conjunctivitis have been experienced, while more rarely asthma occurred. The main sign of atopic dermatitis is itching, which may be extended to the whole body or, more often localized in specific areas such as armpits and sides of the abdomen. To relieve itching caused by skin irritation, the dog licks, rubs and sometimes eats the skin in areas where the itching is most intense. The consequence is that the areas where the animal is constantly licking become stained (reddish-brown colour). That is more evident in patients with a light color coat. The persistence of irritation contributes to hair loss and the increased severeness of skin lesions in areas where the dog itches and scratches more. This situation can also lead to the development of secondary infections. Skin inflammation results in excessive sebum secretion, which gives the hair a greasy appearance and appears rancid. In this situation, excessive sebum secretions results in skin and hair that are more susceptible to bacteria colonization, which contributes to foul odour. Atopic dermatitis is commonly diagnosed through blood tests. You can also find the allergen which is responsible for this disease through a prick test. This in- 87 volves an intradermal injection of small amounts of allergens and evaluating the occurrence of allergic reactions. Often, however, this type of survey is not practical for animals and many false negatives and false positives occur. 88 Strategy for the treatment of atopic dermatitis The best defense against atopic dermatitis is to prevent contact with the allergens that cause the outbreak. It is easy to understand how this strategy is difficult, if not impossible to implement. A good approach is the use of pharmacological therapy. Anti-inflammatory drugs such as steroids can effectively counteract inflammation of the skin and itch. Steroids are usually used with antibiotics and antifungals in order to combat bacterial and fungal infections, often found in the damaged areas. Antihistamines are apparently less effective than drugs, so they are almost always associated with steroids to reduce the dosage. One important aspect is the diet, wich should eliminate eventual allergenic noutrients and to supply the organism with noutrients fighting the dermatitis. Polyunsaturated fatty acids Ω-3 and Ω-6 are especially useful thanks to their anti-inflammatory characteristics and thanks to the content of vitamin E which is a valid antioxidant. The best strategy in the treatment of atopic dermatitis to obtain better results is combining therapy with a detoxifying agent. “To combat biological and metabolic disorders that accompany certain diseases skin is extremely important to foster the elimination of toxins by body, through what may be considered the natural excretory mechanism: liver, kidneys, intestines, skin as their malfunction prevents the elimination of toxins produced by the body. With the activity on generalized excretory organs or glands on certain elective organs like the skin, certain plants are able to enhance their filtering power by increasing the elimination of toxic elements of the blood.” [Adapted from: Enrica Campanini Dictionary of Phytotherapy and Medicinal Plants"]. The main objective in the treatment of dermatitis, is to alleviate the intense itching that forces the animal to scratch. Constant scratching causes the animal to lose hair and skin lesions. Excellent results have been obtained by integrating the diet with locally applied products to relieve inflammation and to restore the integrity of skin and coat. The hygiene aspect for dogs is also very important and should be kept under control through the use of a delicate shampoo that does not have an irritating effect on the already damaged skin. There are some fatty acids that the body cannot synthesize and for this reason they must necessarily be introduced in the diet. 89 Special attention should be paid to two of these essential fatty acids because they play an important role in the prevention and treatment of skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis, they are: linoleic acid (LA) and acid a-linolenic acid (ALA). These fatty acids are transformed into other polyunsaturated fatty acids in the organism (PUFA) by specific enzymes that lenthen the chain of carbon atoms and introduce other double ties. polyunsaturated fatty acids Ω-6 (Ω-6), including the main gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), aciddiomo gamma Linolenic acid (DGLA) and arachidonic acid (AA). Seed oils are particularly rich in omega-6polyunsaturated fatty acids. The main series of polyunsaturated fatty acids Ω-3 (Ω-3) that derive from-linolenic acid are: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The best dietary sources of polyunsaturated fatty acids omega-3 are sea fish oil and linseed oil. Ω-6 and Ω-3 are competors for the common use of certain enzymes in the metabolism. This causes an excessive intake of omega-3, which in turn results in a lower production of Ω-6 Linoleic acid and vice versa in case of excessive intake of Ω-6 fatty acids. Therefore a balanced fatty acid intake is needed. It is believed that the ideal ratio Ω-6 / Ω-3 is 5:1. 90 Ω Derma 369 pet Ω-3, Ω-6, Ω-9 and vitamin E based- herbal supplement with EVENING PRIMROSE OIL, FLAXSEED OIL, OLIVE OIL AND SUNFLOWER OIL. These oils are cold pressed as not to alter the content of essential fatty acids and vitamins. This product is designed to provide a balanced intake of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids, Ω6 and Ω-3 are present in a ratio of 5:1 (ideal ratio as reported by recent studies).
