What are Enzymes and why should I use them to supplement my dogs diet?
Enzymes are the catalysts that help the digestive tract breakdown food into smaller molecules. Enzymes can enhance a premium diet by providing more effective digestion of the ingredients. In a nutshell, enzymes can increase the efficiency or utilization of the food you are already feeding. For example, the enzyme protease breaks down proteins into their individual amino acids. These individual amino acids are what the dog will utilize to build overall body condition, including coat and skin. In addition to protease, we have included lipase for the breakdown of fat into individual fatty acids, amylase for the conversion of carbohydrates to energy and cellulase to break down cellulose for the breakdown of plant based proteins and carbohydrates.
