Most people think enzymes are digestive aids and only for those pets (or humans) that do not digest their food well.
The fact is, the right enzymes are an essential element in restoring or maintaining the immune system so that it can defend against anything that would do the body harm.
Enzymes are essential to maintain or restore health. Your cat or dog is a carnivore (meat eater). The majority of their diet should consist of high quality animal protein, not meat by-products or grain fillers, as is the case with all manufactured pet food. Because almost all manufactured pet food is heated, it contains few if any digestive enzymes.
Excessively eating foods that are void of enzymes and eating too much food results in a depletion of enzymes in the body. In particular, there is strain put on the pancreas to secrete greater amounts of enzymes than normal. The result is an exhausted pancreas. To reduce the load on the pancreas, the immune system lends its white blood cells which have stores of enzymes to aid in the digestive process. The consequence of this is impaired immune function. Therefore, having sufficient enzymes not only supports the digestive process, but the immune system as well.
According to Nicole Strashok, BSc, MH, HT (Enzymes and Their Role in Digestion) Another way to cause an enzyme deficiency is to eat a food or food group too frequently. It is not a coincidence that the foods most likely to cause allergies are the ones most frequently eaten.
Super Pet Enzymes provides your cat or dog with the the complete spectrum of enzymes it needs to maintain a vibrant immune system.
Proper gastrointestinal function is highly dependent upon enzymes being given with each meal. Early warning signs of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders include frequent diarrhea and/or vomiting. These are among the top 5 reasons for vet visits. Left unchecked, they soon become chronic, setting the stage for life-threatening diseases, such as dog cancer and feline leukemia.
