Why should cats eat NUTRIENCE DIET WEIGHT MANAGEMENT ADULT CAT FOOD?

Chicken meal, a high quality source of protein (cats are obligate carnivores).

Flaxseed meal contains excellent source of essential omega 3 fatty acids for improved coat condition.
M.O.S. (Mannanoligosaccharides) helps prevent the colonization of pathogenic bacteria from binding onto the gut walls.
F.O.S. (Fructo-oligosaccharides) exclusive nutrient source for "good" bacteria, in association with M.O.S., produces a synergetic effect favouring healthy intestinal microflora.
Contains chelated minerals for optimum assimilation of certain special mineral compounds.
A special mix of herbs is added for optimum performance.
Yucca schidigera lowers the production of ammonia in the stool and decreases offensive odours.
Vitamin C added for extra immune support.
