What are the benefits of probiotics for pets?

Did you know that almost 70% of your pet’s immune system is found in their digestive tract? Just like in humans, it is essential to take care of their digestive health. Giving probiotics to your pet is a great way to ensure the health of their digestive system!

DEFINITION AND PURPOSE OF INTESTINAL FLORA

Intestinal flora encompasses all the bacteria present in the animal's digestive tract, which forms a fragile ecosystem where good bacteria compete with harmful bacteria. A healthy intestinal flora depends on the prevalence of good bacteria that begets positive effects. Using probiotic pet supplements helps keep the intestinal flora healthy by accruing good bacteria to counter the bad ones.

The causes and effects of intestinal flora disbalance in animals

An imbalanced intestinal flora can be the result of several factors. The possible causes of intestinal flora disbalance:

  • Stress
  • An unbalanced diet
  • The use of antibiotics
  • A sudden change in diet

This imbalance can bring upon a variety of negative consequences in animals such as:

  • Gas
  • Constipation
  • loose stools
  • Fatigue
  • inflammatory bowel disease

If this is the case, then your pet can definitely benefit from taking pre and probiotic supplements.

Taking probiotics is recommended after the uses of antibiotics

Purpose of probiotic:

Probiotics means "for life" - these are microscopic living organisms that feed on prebiotics and compose an animal's bacterial flora. They have the purpose to improve the health of your pet by ensuring a balance within the digestive system.
