4Vets Natural Diabetes Wet Veterinary Food for Dogs with Diabetes, 185 g

4vets Diabetes Veterinary Diet is a complete, therapeutic dog food formulated for dogs diagnosed with diabetes, as well as overweight, obese, and post-spay/neuter dogs..The dietary fiber and low levels of rapidly digestible carbohydrates in the diet help control your dog's blood sugar levels and body weight.The most common causes of diabetes are genetic factors, immune-mediated insulin resistance, pancreatitis, and the increasingly common occurrence of obesity in adult dogs.Reducing fluctuations in blood glucose levels and maintaining blood glucose levels close to normal helps control symptoms and prevent complications of diabetes.

Recommendations:

It is recommended that you consult a veterinarian before use or before extending the duration of use.Use initially for up to 6 months. Dogs should have constant access to fresh drinking water.

Key Features:

Chicory – is a rich source of inulin, a prebiotic, which nourishes the gut’s natural bacterial flora.A healthy gut flora inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria in the digestive tract of animals and, as a result, prevents digestive tract disorders.

High-quality protein– food based on sources of complete, low-fat animal protein.This level and quality of protein is sufficient for tissue repair, rather than simply as a source of protein.

Low-fat— derived from animal-based ingredients and vegetable oil — ensures optimal liver and pancreas function and extends the time required for digestion.In addition, the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids found in salmon oil provide the necessary amount to ensure biochemical control of inflammatory processes.

L-carnitine – is a compound that accelerates fat metabolism in the body and lowers blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Dietary fiber– high content (3% of total food weight) ensures adequate water absorption, which means that the Diabetes veterinary diet increases the feeling of satiety and fills the digestive tract, thereby stimulating the satiety centers more quickly and reducing the feeling of hunger.The presence of dietary fiber in the form of m.in.Psyllium seeds bind to fats in the digestive tract, reducing their digestibility and utilization as energy sources.

Carbohydrates – Diabetes food contains starch, which is a polysaccharide that slowly releases glucose.It is very important for people with diabetes to avoid monosaccharides and disaccharides, which cause a sharp rise in blood sugar levels—something that can be very dangerous for people with impaired insulin function.

Dried brewer's yeast (a source of prebiotics: mannan oligosaccharides and β-glucans)– have a beneficial effect on the gut microbiota.Yeast also has high biological value due to its high content of B vitamins.The use of yeast in the diets of young dogs is particularly important because it stimulates a wide range of immune responses.

Mojave Yucca - These ingredients stimulate digestive function, promote the absorption of nutrients from the gastrointestinal tract, and stimulate its peristalsis.When added to the diet, it helps reduce the production of intestinal gas and the intensity of the odor of feces.In addition, the saponins in the Mojave yucca exhibit antibacterial activity that suppresses protozoal infections in the intestines, and the polyphenols have anti-inflammatory effects.

Psyllium seeds (Plantago psyllium L).) - The seeds combine the properties of highly soluble fiber with low fermentability in the small intestine, thereby having a positive effect on improving intestinal motility.In addition, they have water-binding and gel-forming properties, thereby regulating the passage of food through the digestive tract.
