Farmina N&D Quinoa-Weight Management – Lamb & Broccoli Asparagus recipe is a complete food for dogs, which helps in the weight management of the pets and further helps in curing/preventing obesity.

N&D Quinoa is the new Grain Free line from Farmina Pet Foods developed in Italy with first-class regional ingredients and is a functional food for dogs and cats with specific nutrition needs. Quinoa is a superfood that fits perfectly into the Farmina Nutrition System for Carnivores Philosophy because it contains around 15% of high-biological value proteins, which are rich in well-balanced essential amino acids, a very rare feature of vegetables. This helps the products increase product protein content which means 94% of proteins come from animal origin in totality. N&D Quinoa uses genuine ingredients to offer your pet a balanced and complete diet without any cereals, GMOs, or artificial preservatives. The range includes quinoa from organic farming in Italy.

Features:

• 94% of protein from animal origin, 0% artificial preservatives, 0% grains
• Lamb, quinoa, broccoli and asparagus.
• Low level of FATS: Fats have the highest energetic density among nutrients. It is necessary to reduce the quantity of this highly caloric nutrient to reduce the total energetic density of the product.
• High levels of Crude fibre contribute to reducing the energetic density of the product. They increase the satiety feeling and reduce the absorption of caloric nutrients which remain trapped in the fiber matrix.
• Low Glycemic Index sources of QUINOA and pea starch deliver glucose slowly to the blood after digestion. This leads to the pet having enough glucose in the blood for a longer time and do not want to feed more often. The slow release of sugar prevents Diabetes and Overweight.
• Broccoli is a low-calorie food rich in natural antioxidants, minerals (calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium), vitamin C, B1, B2, and fibres that promote satiety and support healthy intestinal transit.
• Asparagus has a diuretic property. It stimulates the intestinal peristalsis and helps purify the body from toxins. Asparagus is rich in vitamins that favour the metabolism and increase the fat-burning activity.

Petperfecthub Tip: It is best not to let your dog do any strenuous exercise or play immediately after a meal. This is said to be one of the main causes of a condition called ‘bloat’ which can be fatal if not treated immediately. Give your pet a break of about an hour or two before letting him or her play.

Please Note: This is just an initial guide, we suggest you check with a vet for specific changes in quantity to suit your pet.
