Clydach Mindful Years for Dogs 200g
Mindful Years - Nutrition for the ageing brain, with every dose on the tin
An ageing brain can struggle to use glucose for energy. Synaptelyn® provides a ketone-based alternative, alongside Magtein®, algae DHA and phosphatidylserine. In our first survey of 37 owners, 83% said their dog seemed more like themselves.
Comprehensive, Advanced Support for Canine Cognitive Decline
Mindful Years is the daily ritual worth starting the moment you notice the first small change: the pause at a door they'd have walked through without thinking a year ago, the slower response to their name, the restless pacing at 3am that wasn't there before. It's not hyperbole to call this one of the most complete cognitive formulas available for dogs today. Mindful Years brings together four separately studied actives in one daily scoop, working on memory, alertness, synaptic structure and cellular protection together.
Formulated by Clydach Farm's founder after watching cognitive decline take hold in his own life, and produced in our own factory in the heart of Wales, Mindful Years is a simple daily sprinkle that can be added to their main meal, wet or dry.
Supporting Memory & Recognition: Helping your dog stay connected to the faces, routines and cues they've always known
Encouraging Mental Presence: Less drifting and staring into space, more of the alert, engaged dog you remember
Calmer Nights, Brighter Days: Easing the restlessness and disorientation that so often disrupts sleep in senior dogs
Protecting the Ageing Brain: Daily antioxidant and mitochondrial support to help defend brain cells from everyday oxidative stress
Ingredients:
Magtein®: The only magnesium form developed specifically for the brain: licensed, patented, and included at a level that does something.
Schizochytrium Algae: We chose algae over fish oil deliberately. The same DHA, grown rather than caught; no marine contaminant load, no oxidised fish oil taste, no pressure on wild stocks.
Phosphatidylserine: A phospholipid concentrated in neuronal membranes, where it supports the structural integrity that clean, quick signalling depends on.
Synaptelyn®: Formulated around a single observation: the ageing brain loses its ability to use glucose efficiently long before the behaviour changes. Synaptelyn® addresses that mismatch directly: a second, ketone-based route to usable energy at the synapse, and a butyrate signal associated with synaptic remodelling and neuronal resilience.
Green Tea, L-Carnitine, Alpha Lipoic Acid: for celluar protection and clarity. Targeted Antioxidant and mitochondrial support to help protect ageing brain cells fro the oxidative stress associated with confusion.
Why most senior formulas stop short
Most cognitive supplements for dogs are fish oil with a different label. Omega-3 matters, but it's one input into a system with several moving parts. A slowing mind doesn't slow in one direction. Memory, alertness, the structure of the synapse itself and the cellular wear underneath it all shift together. So we formulated for all four.
the brain's fuel problem
An ageing brain gradually loses its ability to use glucose efficiently. Part of why the lights seem dimmer isn't that the fuel has gone: it's that the uptake has slowed. Synaptelyn® was engineered by Clinigol Veterinary Science to make energy available where it matters most: at the synapse, where thought actually happens.
Magnesium that arrives at the brain
Very little of the magnesium in a standard supplement ever reaches the brain, the blood-brain barrier sees to that. Magtein® is a patented threonate form developed specifically to cross it, and to support synaptic density: the physical connections that memory and recognition are built on.
