Futtermedicus Optiballast powder cellulose

Dietary fiber for dogs and cats

  • obtained from beech wood
  • low-calorie filler in the bowl
  • suitable for soft and hard stools
  • tasteless

We recommend Optiballast powdered cellulose for good digestion. It consists of 100 % plant fiber cellulose, which is a good dietary fiber. As it is indigestible for dogs and cats and therefore has no nutritional value, it is essential for regular intestinal activity! Optiballast cellulose stimulates intestinal peristalsis in the event of digestive problems and prevents constipation when fed a low-fiber diet. In the case of diarrhea or soft stools, on the other hand, the feces become firmer again due to the high water-binding capacity of cellulose.

Supports weight reduction in the case of obesity as a dietary fiber. The food remains in the stomach for longer and thus provides a feeling of satiety. In addition, the intestinal passage is accelerated so that the food is less utilized.

If the administration of vegetables is difficult or your pet even suffers from food intolerance/allergy, cellulose optimally replaces the otherwise missing dietary fiber.

Optiballast cellulose from Futtermedicus
Optiballast cellulose is suitable for dogs and cats. For supplementing ready-made food or home-cooked food. Optiballast cellulose contains 100 % pure cellulose. High taste acceptance.

Feeding recommendation for Optiballast powder cellulose

Body weight in kg Minimum daily amount in g Maximum daily amount in g Amount of water in ml
3 - 4,0 1,5 - 2 3 -4,0 20 - 40
5 - 10,0 2,5 - 5 5 - 10,0 25 - 100
15 - 20 7,5 - 10 15 - 20 75 - 200
25 - 30 12,5 - 15 25 - 30 125 - 300
30 - 40 15 - 20 30 - 40 150 - 400
50 - 60 25 - 30 50 - 60 250 - 600

1 heaped teaspoon = approx. 1-1.5 g; 1 heaped tablespoon = approx. 3-4 g

You should start with ½ teaspoon, as the intestinal bacteria must first get used to absorbing the fibers. The daily amount should then be increased by ½ teaspoon per day. Increasing the amount initially can otherwise lead to undesirable side effects such as diarrhea. The powdered cellulose should first be swollen with water and then mixed well into the ration.

The amount can be increased to a maximum of 1 g per kilogram of body weight per day. When the manure becomes softer, the individual limit has been reached. The amount should then be reduced again by half a teaspoon.

Ist das eine geschnittene Zellulose oder mikrokristaline Zellulose?

Es handelt sich hierbei um reine Zellulose in Pulverform. Diese Zellulose wurde nicht mit Mineralsäuren behandelt, somit handelt es sich nicht um mikrokristalline Zellulose, die vorwiegend als Hilfsstoff/Trennmittel und nicht als Nahrungsergänzung an sich verwendet wird.
