Efficacy of healthy dog food
Guess what these products are: Earthborn Holistic, Avoderm Natural, and Nulo. Here’s a hint that Nulo’s catchphrase is Nutrition Meets Love. Your first guess is wrong, it’s not nonfat yogurt. No, it is not a high-end skin cream. So what is the product? These names are all for dog food products. These new products represent a trend that will explode as dog owners migrate from their traditional dog food to these new brand foods.
The demand for nutrient dense dog foods is being driven by the same fuel that drives the human supplement industry; people are experiencing real and positive results. To borrow a line from the VitaHound website “Nature intended our dogs to be STRONG, ENERGETIC animals, biologically engineered to be vigorous carnivores.” These new dog foods are designed to reintroduce nutrients lost when the canine diet changed from meat only to commercial dog food. The critical nutrient taurine, obtained by eating raw meat, is being added to several new dog foods. Taurine is responsible for the proper function of every cell in a dog’s body, research also indicates that it is important for cardiovascular health.
This new revolution in nutrient dense dog food will primarily improve the sources used by manufacturers to produce their product. Despite the improved nutritional value of commercial dog food, owners still need to feed their beagles a high-quality daily supplement. The imperative concentrations and combinations of nutrients responsible for maintaining a healthy digestive system in canines cannot exist in manufactured dog foods. For this reason, owners should supplement their beloved hounds’ diet on a daily basis. A dog’s health is derived primarily from the nutrients it assimilates from its food. Prevention of many chronic canine diseases is the effect of a healthy digestive system.
An action plan would be to locate 3 or 4 websites specialized in canine health. Considering your dog’s health status, develop a list of nutrients that will benefit his overall health and well-being. Before adding any supplement to your dog’s diet, first determine what results you want to see from its use. Wait 3 months for signs of improvement to materialize, if no noticeable effects move on to another product. I’ll borrow another expert from the VitaHound site that best describes the reasoning behind this approach. “Biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, and physiology are the detailed sciences of animal structure, function, and growth. The complexity of investigating nutrition at these levels is too complicated for one person to use in any way.” building a healthy diet for your dog Information derived from the various sciences is best implemented by understanding the curative and preventive findings, and then employing the appropriate nutrients Insufficient improvements in your dog’s health can adequately addressed simply by substituting the non-working substances with relevant ones. In other words, trial and error is the best approach to finding supplements that will improve your dog’s health and well-being.
