Eukanuba Veterinary Diets Intestinal dry food for dogs is intended to reduce acute intestinal absorptive disorders and compensate for maldigestion, including chronic pancreatic insufficiency. Intestinal is also intended for regulating lipid (fat) metabolism in the case of hyperlipidaemia (high blood fat). The recipe includes MOS (mannan-oligosaccharides), which binds potentially pathogenic bacteria preventing them from adhering to the intestinal wall and excreting them safely with the faeces. Additionally, the food contains beet pulp. This moderately fermentable fibre produces butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) serving as a preferential energy source for the enterocytes. It promotes intestinal health and helps to regain optimal stool consistency. The overall low-fat levels decrease the workload of the pancreas and, in this way, support the digestive function that GI issues can compromise. Furthermore, it helps to minimise steatorrhea. Moreover, the targeted ratio of the fatty acids omega-6 and omega-3 help nutritionally manage cellular inflammation. It is recommended that a veterinarian's opinion be sought before use or extending the period of use to determine your dog's needs.
