Diseases and suitable diet food for dogs

Dogs can suffer from numerous diseases that can be alleviated or even cured with veterinary treatment and selected diet food.

Inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis)

The pancreas produces enzymes that enable the digestion of fats, carbohydrates and proteins. In the case of pancreatitis, the digestibility of the dog food is therefore particularly important in order to relieve the organ.

Veterinary diet food for dogs with pancreatic diseases must therefore be of very high quality and have a low fat content. A high Crude fiber content also makes digestion more difficult, so that treating veterinarians often set very low limits for the dog food.

Diabetes in dogs

Dogs with diabetes are dependent on Veterinary diet food with a high Crude fiber content and a reduced starch content. This prevents a rapid rise in blood sugar after feeding.

• Type 1 diabetes mellitus: The dog's pancreas no longer produces sufficient insulin.
• Type 2 diabetes mellitus: The insulin produced is not effective enough.

Veterinary diet food for diabetes in dogs is therefore specially designed for these metabolic complications. Depending on the individual case, the vet may also aim to reduce body weight when prescribing diet food for diabetic dogs.

Diseases of the kidneys

The kidneys regulate the electrolyte balance and ensure the excretion of waste products. However, older dogs in particular often suffer from chronic Renal insufficiency. Although this disease cannot be cured, its progression can be slowed down with a special diet with a low phosphate content and reduced protein content.

Obesity in dogs

According to studies, obesity is not only widespread in humans. Around 50% of all dogs also suffer from obesity and their weight is at least 10% above the norm.

From 20 % above the normal weight it is already obesity requiring treatment. There are usually several reasons for such a development. As a rule, excessive food intake is combined with a lack of exercise.

Untreated obesity increases the risk of secondary diseases such as diabetes, the formation of urinary stones, high blood pressure, heart problems and fatty degeneration of organs. Statistical life expectancy also decreases.

Diseases of the liver

The liver is a central organ for the metabolism. It produces vital proteins, stores carbohydrate, fat and vitamins and helps to break down and excrete metabolic products and toxins.

However, the liver can be impaired by congenital damage, inflammation, tumors or fatty degeneration. In the event of a disease, it is therefore very important to switch to a Veterinary diet food for dogs, for example to ensure that this natural detoxification of the body continues.
