Even when we feed our dogs the best possible diet and provide vitamin and mineral supplements, many animals still do not attain the anticipated level of health. The reason could be a deficiency of digestive enzymes. Veterinarians and pet nutritionists often find such deficiencies and recommend digestive enzyme supplements. By aiding in the breakdown of food, these supplements help animals absorb more nutrients from their diet. The results, according to the experts, include improved hair coat and skin, resistance to illness, vigor and mobility, and maintenance of good body weight. Research shows a strong link between enzyme deficiency and disease. Some typical signs to look for are unusual odor or consistency of the stool, animals who eat their own feces and animals who are clearly underweight despite big appetites. Canine Digestive Enzymes can be used instead of more expensive animal based pancreatic enzyme supplements for many digestive problems such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Pancreatic Enzyme Insufficiency. Dr. Goodpet's Canine Enzymes are made from natural plant sources and come in a 7 oz. container of powder that can be sprinkled on your dog’s food. Protease is the enzyme that breaks down protein. Amylase works on carbohydrates and lipase on fat. Shown by research to be highly effective, less costly, and with a wider range of activity than animal-based enzyme supplements. Just sprinkle ½ teaspoon of powder per cup of food to give your dog a significant dose of digestive enzymes that could be very beneficial to their health. $18.95 per container.
