LIQUID VITAMIN AND SUPPLEMENT FORMULATIONS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to, in general, a liquid vitamin composition, and in particular to a composition comprising two separate liquid vitamin formulations.
Generally speaking, vitamins, multi-vitamins or supplements can be introduced to pets and humans to supplement the diet thereof. One way in which this can be introduced is through pills or tablets, which contain the vitamins, multi-vitamins or supplements in solid form.
11 Alternatively, it is well known that liquids are absorbed faster and more effectively into the body than solids. For example, studies have shown that the body utilizes only about 20% of a pill's components, while, in some cases, 98% of ingested liquid can be absorbed.
Further, vitamins, multi-vitamins or supplements in solid form can be highly processed and, as such, may lack in many vitamins, these being refined out or diluted during the processing stage.
Thus, there is a need for an improved liquid vitamin or multi-vitamin supplement composition that allows for easy absorption of the vitamins, and which results in minimum loss in the quantity and quality of the vitamins. In this regard, the present invention substantially fulfills this need.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, one object of the present invention is to provide an improved liquid vitamin or multi-vitamin composition that allows for easy absorption of the vitamins, and which results in 26 minimum loss in the quantity and quality of the vitamins.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The compositions herein are adapted for use by a companion animal. In this respect, as will be well-understood by the ordinarily skilled artisan, the primary use of the compositions described 11 herein are for companion animal use and the compositions are therefore formulated as such, though it is conceivable that these compositions could also be safely used for human use.
The present invention relates to liquid vitamin or supplement compositions that are useful for relief and treatment of various conditions in animals. Preparation of a stable liquid composition with 16 one or more vitamins or supplements that may optionally be admixed with an animal's food or water allows the owner of the animal to administer effective and metered quantities thereof on an "as needed" basis, such as daily, weekly or monthly.
21 Accordingly, the present invention provides a liquid vitamin composition comprising (a) a first liquid vitamin formulation comprising glucosamine sulfate, devils claw root alcohol extract, cats claw bark alcohol extract, water, glycerine, ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate; and (b) a second liquid vitamin formulation comprising vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12, C, D3 and E, beta-carotene, water, citric acid, xanthan gum, ascorbic acid, potassium sorbate 26 and sodium benzoate, characterized in that the two formulations are separate solutions.
The liquid composition of the present invention provides the advantage over the prior art in that the two separate vitamin formulations are in the liquid form, and, as noted previously, liquids are absorbed faster and more effectively into the body than solids. The composition may, if desired, be

The liquid composition of the present invention provides the advantage over the prior art in that the two separate vitamin formulations are in the liquid form, and, as noted previously, liquids are absorbed faster and more effectively into the body than solids. The composition may, if desired, be
3 1 accommodated in a single container with two distinct compartments.
Alternatively, the composition may be provided in two separate containers comprised within a common pack or packaging system which is appropriate for sale or delivery or merchandising. The container(s) may be of any size as appropriate for the required need and destination.
6 The liquid composition comprises a first liquid formulation comprising glucosamine sulfate, devils claw root alcohol extract, cats claw bark alcohol extract, water, glycerine, ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate. The concentration of each of these in the first liquid formulation may be varied. A flavorant may also be used to increase palatability of the compositions of the current invention. In a preferred embodiment, a flavorant such as apple flavor could be used 11 with respect to the first liquid formulation, and a flavorant such as natural peach flavor could be used with respect to the second liquid formulation. The liquid compositions of the current invention may comprise a range from about 0.00001% to about 99% flavorant, from about 0.
0001% to about 75%
flavorant, from about 0.001 to about 50% flavorant, from about 0.01 to about 30% flavorant, from about 0. 1% to about 20% flavorant, from about 1% to about 10% flavorant, from about 2% to about 16 6% flavorant, from about 3% to about 5% flavorant, all by weight of the composition.
The first liquid formulation is suitably in the aqueous phase, and, with respect to water, the first liquid composition further comprises at least about 50% water, by weight of the composition.
21 Suitably, in a 500 ml formulation of the first liquid formulation, glucosamine sulfate is present in the first liquid formulation in an amount of 16.66 grams, devils claw root alcohol extract is present in an amount of 25 grams, and cats claw bark alcohol extract is present in an amount of 20 grams. The benefits of using glucosamine sulfate is that it stimulates the production of synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints. Without enough of this fluid, the cartilage in the joint begins to deteriorate and 26 harden, causing wear and tear on the joints, which leads to arthritis.
The first liquid formulation further comprises an antioxidant. The preferred antioxidants are
