Gastrointestinal Disorders
DIGESTIVE LOW FAT is a complete dietetic food for dogs dogs with maldigestion, and regulates lipid metabolism in cases of hyperlipidaemia. This diet contains highly digestible ingredients, a low level of fat and a high level of essential fatty acids.
A low fat concentration improves digestive function in dogs with hyperlipidæmia or with acute pancreatitis.
A low fibre content ensures high digestibility and nutrient absorption
Highly digestible carbohydrates compensate for the decreased enzymatic ability in the intestinal brush border.
An intake of beet pulp, Mannan-Oligo-Saccharides (MOS) and Fructo-Oligo-Saccharides (FOS) helps to restore the colonic ecosystem and increases digestive security
