Dogs

NEKTON-Biotic-Dog is a probiotic feed supplement for the stabilization of the intestinal flora of dogs. With lactic acid forming bacteria, which also occur naturally in the intestinal wall of dogs, favoring there a healthy digestion of food. Natural mannan-oligosaccharides and fructans support through its prebiotic effect a positive composition of the intestinal flora. Ideal for indigestion and for regeneration after illness or antibiotic treatments. The probiotic substances in NEKTON-Biotic-Dog are also proven to increase the body's immune defense.Dogs suffer frequently from indigestion. The causes are varied and often not even known exactly. Many problems with digestion occur during diseases or after antibiotic treatments, for example. Also new allergies as well as food intolerances are sometimes cited as the cause. Often the colon is sensitive to stress, as occurs during transport of the dogs or in situations which demand from the dog great effort and attention.As a result of these factors, the balance of the intestines is often attacked. The pH-value and the composition of the important intestinal flora can change, whereupon the organism reacts sensitive. Whatever, a constant environment in the intestine is important for its function - the best possible utilization of the food. Last but not least, a healthy gut is also important for the well-being and can affect the behavior of the dog positively.NEKTON-Biotic-Dog contributes to the stabilization of the intestinal flora and draws on purely natural ingredients. To prevent acidification, which favors the growth of harmful bacteria in the gut, the contained rice starch increases the pH-value and thus creates a more favorable environment for the beneficial bacteria, including Enterococcus faecium. These bacteria contained in NEKTON-Biotic-Dog belong to the natural intestinal flora of humans and dogs and support their regeneration. Rice starch is also 100 % absorbed in the dog intestines, it is energy-rich and does not burden the organism. As an important (prebiotic) food for beneficial intestinal bacteria, NEKTON-Biotic-Dog contains indigestible carbohydrates from the cell walls of yeast (mannan-oligosaccharides), as well as from plant by-products (fructans). The cell walls of yeast also provide so-called beta-glucans which bind harmful substances in the intestine that can subsequently be excreted.Another probiotic substance is inulin which is contained in dandelions. Dandelion soothes the intestines and has a choleretic, diuretic and an appetizing effect. The contained sesquiterpenlactones but also the high potassium content of the plant is responsible for the diuretic effect. Further, dandelion has a stimulating effect on the metabolism and is anti-inflammatory and spasmolytic.NEKTON-Biotic-Dog also contains a moderate amount of yeast to supply the organism with numerous micronutrients such as various B-vitamins. Thus, a possible deficit of these nutrients, caused e.g. by diarrhea, is counteracted. Of course, NEKTON-Biotic-Dog does not contain sugar and preserving agents and is free of gluten.

Pure chlorella algae for dogs.Chlorella is one of the best known and most popular microalgae worldwide. With a wide range of vitamins and minerals, chlorella offers a range of health benefits for dogs. For example, improving skin and coat health, helping with digestive problems and supporting healthy digestion, detoxifying and strengthening the immune system, neutralizing odors and supporting joint health. The high nutrient density is particularly helpful for sick, weak and young animals.The vitamins contained in chlorella play an important role in numerous metabolic processes and can support the immune system, bone formation, cell health and the nervous system. The algae is rich in minerals that contribute to bone health, electrolyte balance, muscle function and strengthening the immune system.The unsaturated fatty acids it contains can help improve the dog's skin and coat.Chlorella has a high content of chlorophyll - up to 3%, which can promote the absorption of iron and thus support the formation of red blood cells and the camouflage of oxygen in the body.Since chlorella offers numerous health benefits, it can be a useful addition to your dog's daily diet. Chlorella is therefore often recommended as a BARF additive.

Vitamins and minerals for raw feedingNEKTON-Dog Easy BARF is the sensible complement for biologically appropriate raw feeding (BARF). NEKTON-Dog Easy BARF offers also for beginners the opportunity to provide your dog all the required vitamins, minerals and trace elements.

Glucosamine is essential for the construction and maintenance of tendons, connective tissues, cartilage, and joint capsules. Chondroitin is a component of cartilage, enabling it to retain water. As the body ages, it loses the ability to produce glucosamine and chondroitin, which can eventually lead to joint degradation. However, when consciously supplemented, joint mobility can improve, and worn-out cartilage can be protected.Green-lipped mussel powder is of full value and not defatted, preserving the characteristic components of the natural product.NEKTON-Dog Move Power can be used at any time and without restrictions as a preventive measure, even if the dog does not have acute symptoms.

At the same time, it can lead to graying hair, which later becomes brittle and frequently falls out. A biotin deficiency can also be observed on the dog's skin. The skin becomes flaky and faded. In serious cases it can cause eczema and itching.Another reason for a biotin deficiency can be treatment with antibiotics or sulfonamides.
