An example of just some of the ways vitamins and minerals can help a pet during and after pregnancy include: supporting their immune system, protecting the cells against oxidative stress, aiding tiredness and fatigue, regulating hormonal activity, contributing to cell division and assisting the formation of bones, cartilage, skin, teeth and gums.
