raw materials for pet dog food machine
FATS
Fat represents an important source of energy and is also a source of essential fatty acids and a determinant of palatability. Fats provide important fatty subunits, omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-6 fatty acids are essential for skin and coat maintenance and proper membrane structure. Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to be important for blood clotting and reducing inflammation. This is an essential fatty acid for dogs and cats. Fats also help maintain body temperature, control inflammation, and more. Fat is the main form of energy stored in the body, providing twice as much energy as carbohydrates or protein. Carbohydrates or proteins are found in meat, poultry, fish and vegetable oils such as flax and vegetable oils.
CRUDE PROTEIN
Chicken meat, lamb meat and wild boar meat, fish meat, as well as eggs,Protein is usually the most basic nutrient for animals and the source of the building blocks of life (ie, amino acids). Dogs, being carnivores, need amino acids, which are usually derived from beans, meat, and eggs. Protein is known for providing amino acids that strengthen skin, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments and cartilage.
MINERALS
Minerals strengthen bones and aid in nerve transmission and muscle contraction. Maximize focus on macro and oligo elements, especially balancing according to the species, age, and pathophysiology of the animal.
In dietary formulations designed to treat specific pathological conditions, you should pay special attention to mineral compounds, increasing or decreasing the concentration of each element to compensate for specific metabolic deficiencies in some pathological conditions or to preserve the function of the relevant organs.
CARBOHYDRATE
Carbohydrates are another great source of energy for dogs and cats. Especially carbohydrates, as they provide readily available energy. Common carbohydrate sources are plants and grains. Carbohydrates, also classified as starches (sugars) and fiber.Starch is composed of various types of sugars, such as glucose or fructose. Through digestion, dogs can easily convert sugar into usable energy.
VITAMINS
Vitamins are responsible for promoting bone growth, blood clotting, energy production, and oxidative protection.Vitamins A, D, E, and K require fat to be absorbed, while B vitamins and vitamin C require water to be absorbed.Vitamins are essential for proper nutrition because they are the most important drivers of biochemical reactions in the body.
Vitamin deficiencies manifest in some cases specific and pronounced symptoms, in others more subtle manifestations of the subject’s general debilitating state. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that you consume the right amount each day to ensure the smooth functioning of all vital functions. Natural plant extracts of grape seed and green tea enhance antioxidant effects.
