Silver
Silver has been shown to have potent antibacterial, antifungal, and wound healing properties. It has also been shown to inhibit biofilm formation. Biofilm is collection of microbes that are enclosed in a matrix or protective gel-like layer that makes it difficult for the bacteria to be reached to be killed. It has been shown to play an important role in resistance of certain skin and ear pathogens.
Organic Oils
The oils used in BotaniVet products are all certified organic and include Coconut (Coco nucifera), Olive (Olea europaea fruit), Jojoba (Simmondsia seed) oils. Our organic oils have calming, soothing and moisturizing properties.
Aloe Vera
Aloe is a cactus-like succulent plant. The gel from the aloe (Aloe barbadensis) leaf has been shown to speed wound healing (by improving blood flow and preventing cell death) and has antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties.
Green Tea Extract
Green tea (Camellia sinensis) extract has been shown to have potent antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Its antibacterial effects have even been studied for resistant bacteria such as methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus and resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Radji 2013 et al 2013)
