Rich in essential substances

If an ingredient in your dog's diet says that it is "rich in essential substances", this means that this ingredient contains many vital nutrients that your dog needs to stay healthy. Essential nutrients are nutrients that your dog's body cannot produce itself and must therefore be obtained from food. These include

  1. Essential amino acids: These are the building blocks of proteins. Your dog needs them to build and repair body tissue, produce enzymes and hormones and perform many other important bodily functions.
  2. Essential fatty acids: These include omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are important for skin and coat health, brain function and inflammation regulation.
  3. Vitamins and minerals: These are necessary for a variety of bodily functions, including metabolism, nerve function, bone formation and the immune system.

It is important that you make sure your dog receives a balanced diet that contains all essential nutrients in the correct amounts and proportions. A diet rich in essential substances helps to avoid deficiencies that can lead to health problems.
