bosch Sensible Renal Reduction is a special diet for sensitive adult dogs which require nutrition low in protein and minerals. bosch Sensible Renal Reduction dog food has particularly high tolerance levels, especially for dogs who tend to metabolism disorders caused by diet. The significantly lowered protein content and the special protein carriers, exclusively fish (at least 10 %) and potato protein (at least 3 %), reduce the build-up of urophanic protein degradation products and thus ensure a relieved urinary tract. The positive effect on the urinary tract is further enhanced by the use of natural antioxidants from a variety of fruits, e.g. carefully dried cranberries (at least 0.2%) and blueberries (at least 0.1%). The significantly lowered mineral content of bosch Renal Reduction dog food has a direct effect on your dog's mineral excretions, leading, in combination with other dietary factors, to stabilised acidity levels (pH value) of your dog's urine at slightly acidic. Chemical laws show that an acidic urinary environment can reduce the production of metabolic degradation products. Caring for your dog's dietary needs by giving it all essential nutrients is not all that matters: vitality, joy of life and well-being are increasingly the focus of interest for the caring dog-owner. The bosch Life Protection Concept offers you a new, modern dog food concept which will contribute to your dog's well-being by solving all the important questions of diet. bosch dog food with Life Protection Concept is made without the use of the grains high in gluten which are commonly used in other foods. It is therefore particularly suitable for dogs with sensitive reactions and intolerances to these ingredients. The alternative source of carbohydrates, millet and potatoes, have a significantly lower allergenic potential. The use of a variety of especially suitable and highly digestible proteins ensures adequate provision of vital protein components, the essential amino acids, even with relatively moderate protein contents. The resulting relief for the metabolism due to the particularly digestible proteins makes the food especially suitable for sensitive dogs which tend to metabolism disorders caused by diet. Life Protection Concept: Immunity Control: Beta-glucan are special carbohydrates with a specific structure and work as a natural immune system stimulant Cell Protection: Important natural antioxidants from a variety of fruits (such as carefully dried tomato purée (at least 0.5%) and carefully dried cranberries (at least 0.2%)), vitamin E and the trace element selenium (as sodium selenite 0.3 mg/kg) protect body cells from attack of elements harmful to the metabolism Eye Care: A highly effective combination of special components with natural contents of antioxidants (e.g. calendula flowers, at least 0.025%) and added vitamins support the natural sight process and slow down changes in sight due to age. Hair Skin: Highly effective vitamins and trace elements (e.g. copper, at least 2.5%) and balanced proportions of essential fatty acids (e.g. omega 6: omega 3 5:1), together with a variety of selected components (e.g. algae meal, at least 0.1%) ensure most of all a soft skin and an optimally coloured, shiny coat. Cartilage Care: Mussel extracts contained in the Life Protection Concept products provide highly effective glucosamines. Glucosamines and chondroitin can support the functionality of cartilage, especially in joints. Stable Intestinal Flora: Selected ingredients, especially carefully processed, ensure superior digestibility and well-formed stool. Dental Care: Size and surface structure of the kibble encourage the dog to thorough mechanical chewing of the food. This creates a positive grinding effect which cleans tooth surfaces, aided by the use of structured vegetable fibre. Energy Transfer: Energy and fat metabolism are promoted by lecithin and carnithin which also improve the energy efficiency of the food. This supports cardiac muscle function. Olfactory Sense: Insufficient supply of certain minerals (e.g. sodium) can lead to a decreasing sense of smell in dogs. The food recognises the dietary link and supplies all important minerals and trace elements. Nerves Brain: Sub-optimal provision of certain vitamins can lead to changes in the central nervous system of the dog. The food recognises this link also by supplying all important vitamins. The 3.75 food pack is equipped with a handy zip and the 11.5 pack features a top slider system for resealing the packaging. Freshness and aroma of bosch Life Protection dog food are therefore preserved and contribute to its great taste.
