Description
Digestive Care is an oral paste for acute cases of digestive upset, which contains prebiotics, probiotics and bentonite clay. Bentonite clay can help calm digestive upset by acting as a binder. Probiotics are important in restoring beneficial flora in the gut while prebiotics provide nourishment for the growth of these bacteria.
-
Probiotics: Digestive Care contains probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria that support a healthy balance of gut flora. During episodes of digestive upset, the balance of gut bacteria may be disrupted, leading to diarrhoea, constipation, or other gastrointestinal issues. Probiotics help replenish the population of beneficial bacteria in the gut, restoring balance and promoting digestive health.
-
Prebiotics: Prebiotics are non-digestible fibers that serve as food for probiotics, helping them thrive and multiply in the gut. Acute digestive care include prebiotics such as fructooligosaccharides (FOS) to further support the growth of beneficial bacteria and enhance the effectiveness of probiotics in restoring gut health.
- Gastrointestinal Health: In dogs and cats, bentonite clay is often used to support gastrointestinal health. By binding to toxins and irritants in the digestive tract, bentonite clay can help soothe inflammation, reduce diarrhoea, and alleviate symptoms of gastrointestinal upset. It can also help promote regular bowel movements by absorbing excess water and toxins that may contribute to loose stools.
