Did you know, when the temperature outside drops, so does our metabolism? Our body reads cold weather as a signal to save energy and heat! What we eat is essential in keeping our digestion running smoothly and continuously during these periods where our metabolism slows. Would you be surprised this applies to our pets too!
Don’t worry. There are ways we can support their gastric health this winter as well as our own.
Happy tummy, happy mummy.
Like us, our pets have delicate digestive systems that need the right level of bacterial to help keep their gut happy. There are ways we can support this gastrointestinal process. A healthy natural diet is the most important of these tools; however, we can do more to help our furry friends have a happy tummy this winter (happy tummy, happy mummy).
We recommend Syn-Vital; Syn-Vital contains a combination of prebiotics and probiotics that naturally improves ANY animal’s digestion resistance, from a tiny kitten to a colossal shire horse!
What is prebiotic and probiotic?
- Prebiotics are specialised nutrient fibres that act as food for the good bacteria; they stimulate growth among the pre-existing good bacteria in the digestive tract.
- Probiotics are living strains of bacteria that add to the population of good bacteria in your digestive system.
In short, one feeds, and one adds good bacteria.
How will my pet benefit?
This synergy of good bacteria and fibres stimulates the intestinal flora positively. This results in improved digestion and uptake of nutrients; moreover, your furry companion gets a beautiful, healthy coat over the winter and one that moults quicker in the more seasonal months.
Wrapping up this winter
So as the weather starts to snap, the leaves drop from the trees, and your wardrobe includes a hat, scarves, and gloves – don’t forget to add that little extra winter protection for your pet too.
