A Focus on the Microbiome from the Beginning
Using years of robust research identifying optimal nutrients, each one of our GI diets is tailored with the precise amount needed for specific conditions and patient needs.
- Prebiotics
- Essential Fatty Acids
- Psyllium
- Zeolite
What are prebiotics?
Prebiotics are dietary fibers that help stimulate growth of beneficial bacteria in the GI tract.
How do they help?
The inclusion of beneficial prebiotics in the pet's diet helps enhance intestinal short chain fatty acids and immune function.
BONUS FACT
Royal Canin includes MOS in almost all of our GI diets. Mannanoligosaccharides (MOS), from hydrolyzed yeast, helps prevents pathogens from adhering to intestinal wall and stimulates an immune response against pathogenic microbes.
What are essential fatty acids?
Marine-based omega-3s, EPA+DHA, are found in fish oil and marine microalgae oil.
How do essential fatty acids help?
The inclusion of marine based omega-3s, EPA+DHA can help modulate inflammation.
What is psyllium?
Psyllium is a natural soluble fiber derived from the husks of psyllium seeds.
How can this nutrient help?
Psyllium has the ability to absorb up to 10 times its weight in water to form a viscous gel.1 It plays an important role in regulating gastrointestinal transit time and stool quality.
1Pibot P, Biourge V, Elliott D. Encyclopedia of Canine Clinical Nutrition (Paris: Aniwa SAS on behalf of Royal Canin, 2006), p 133.BONUS FACT
Royal Canin includes psyllium in all of our dry GI diets for cats and dogs. It's also the key feature in our GI Fiber Response wet, which is unique.
What is zeolite?
Zeolite (sodium aluminosilicate) is a natural mineral clay that is highly porous.
How can this nutrient help?
Zeolite can absorb 50% of its volume in water1 and thus helps with stool quality. It also binds toxins and can support beneficial GI microbes.
