Vince the Vet Superfood Digestion
A healthy gut flora population is vital for optimum health. It helps the digestive system to break down food effectively and absorb essential nutrients, so that pets benefit the most from their diet. A It also helps dogs and cat cope with periods of stress by supporting the immune system. Vince the Vet’s DIGESTION is a rich source of prebiotics for healthy gut flora and digestive health and additional nutrients for:
- encouraging beneficial bowel bacteria to thrive
- promoting good digestion.
- supporting intestinal health
Vince the Vets’s DIGESTION is specially formulated blend of Fructooligosacharides from Chicory and Brewer's Yeast, unique to Vince the Vet, which is rich in natural nutrients that support a healthy gut flora population, and intestinal health:
- Amino Acids (18) - Alanine, Arginine, Asparagine, Glutamine, Glycine, Histidine, Hydroxyproline, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine Phenylalanine, Proline, Serine, Taurine, Threonine, Tryptophan and Tyrosine
- Vitamins (8) - B1 (Thiamine), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pryridoxine), B7 (Biotin), B9 (Folic Acid) and B12 (plant form)
- Minerals and Trace Elements - including Chromium, Selenium, Iron, Potassium, Zinc, Magnesium
- Inulin
- Nucleic Acids - RNA and DNA.
When should you consider using DIGESTION
If your dog or cat has:
- lost weight
- poor body condition
- a dry, dull or unhealthy looking coat
- sensitive or windy bowels
and may not be getting the most out of the diet, then the additional prebiotic support provided by DIGESTION can be helpful in establishing the best possible digestive health. Prebiotics can also help to re-establish a healthy gut flora population following antibiotic administration or illness, both of which can have a severe effect on the balance of beneficial bowel microorganisms.
Benefits to adding DIGESTION to the diet each day:
- promotes healthy bowels and digestion
- supports gut immunity
- aids the assimilation of nutrients important for good body condition
- helps replenish the friendly gut flora, vital for strong health
Additional Uses
ENHANCED prebiotic support of this kind, is particularly important following:
- antibiotics (which can seriously damage the beneficial bowel bacteria vital for good intestinal health)
- immunosuppressive drugs (such as steroids for example, which can weaken the gut immune system and it's ability to keep pathogenic bacteria in the bowels in check)
- recovery from gastroenteritis (vomiting, diarrhoea or sloppy stools and excessive wind)
- recovery from colitis
- recovery from malnutrition (due to illness, loss of appetite or starvation)
- recovery from poisoning (by any harmful chemicals - see below)
Pollution and the Need for Prebiotic Supplementation: Pets today are constantly exposed to a wide range of toxic environmental chemicals, which collect on their paws, skin and fur and are subsequently swallowed during self-grooming. This over time can have a serious effect on gut flora.
Adding DIGESTION to the diet each day, provides important nutritional support to the bowels, beneficial bowel bacteria and digestion, which helps to maintain optimum health.
