Supports digestion

If an ingredient in dog food is stated to 'aid digestion', it means that this ingredient has properties that can help your dog digest its food better. This can have various positive effects on your dog's health.

Ingredients that aid digestion often include fiber. Fiber, which is found in many vegetables, whole grains and certain fruits, can help regulate your dog's stool and prevent constipation. They also support the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut, which is important for healthy gut flora.

Probiotics are another type of ingredient that is often considered to aid digestion. They are live microorganisms that can support gut health by improving the balance of gut bacteria.

Enzymes can also be included in the list of digestive ingredients. They help to break down food more efficiently so that your dog can absorb nutrients better.

It's important to note that although these ingredients are generally considered helpful, each dog is individual. What is good for one dog may be less suitable for another.
