Taste of Nature Dental Care Peptide+ Dog Food 1.5kg £16.50

Taste of Nature oral care recipe. Dental health is crucial for dogs because it directly impacts their overall well-being and quality of life. Over 80% of dogs over the age of three suffer from some form of dental disease. Poor oral hygiene can lead to painful conditions affecting a dog’s ability to eat, groom, and stay active.

Maintaining good dental hygiene not only prevents discomfort and bad breath but also protects against more serious systemic health problems. Bacteria from an infected mouth can enter the bloodstream and affect major organs, contributing to heart disease, kidney issues, and liver damage. Regular dental care - including professional cleanings, at-home brushing, and nutritional strategies helps to reduce harmful bacteria and promotes better overall health for dogs.

THE GOLDILOCKS PRINCIPLE   Instinctively, most people would assume that intact protein would be best for a dog to digest as it contains all the nutritional elements together as one long chain. Similarly, you might think that individual amino acids, broken down as small as possible, would be far easier to absorb.However, it has been proven in research studies that the ideal digestibility and absorption rates occur in small-chain peptides. Intact protein can be described as ‘too much’, and individual amino acids ‘too little’, however, small chain peptides are just right. You may even call these ‘perfect peptides’

W H A T  A B O U T  COLLAGEN PEPTIDES?    In the human market, collagen and collagen peptides have become a major focus for pharmaceutical and therapeutic companies. Your may have undoubtedly come across an advert for collagen-based products for a range of different uses, from skin rejuvenation, to hair care and health supplements.In simple terms, collagen plays a vital role in maintaining the structural integrity of various tissues and organs in the body. For the health and well-being of our pets, collagen types I, II, and III are the most relevant.Type I collagen constitutes 90% of the protein content in bones, making it essential for bone health. Types I and II are crucial components of cartilage, ligaments, and tendons, supporting strong and healthy joints in young dogs while preserving mobility and flexibility in older dogs.Additionally, type I and III contribute to the strength and condition of the skin and coat, potentially alleviating dry and itchy skin issues and maintaining skin elasticity.The Peptide+ Weight Control and Joint Care, and the Peptide+ Skin & Coat recipes contain fish collagen peptides which are shown to help soothe joint tenderness, improve mobility, and decrease body weight, BMI and fat mass alike. The Peptide+ Digestive Health recipe contains turkey collagen peptides shownto be beneficial in supporting intestinal health and helping to maintain the barrierfunction which prevent potentially harmful substances from entering the body.

Intact protein can cause allergies A dog or cat may be allergic to specific proteins. The body will detect and react in various ways to the proteins. Hydrolysed protein When proteins are hydrolysed, they are broken downinto small pieces that are unrecognisable to the body, this also increases their digestibility.  Peptides reduce the risk Reducing the size of peptides will minimise the risk of dogs/cats detecting and reaction to the allergenic proteins.
