Why should dogs eat NUTRIENCE HOLISTIC ADULT DOG MEDIUM BREED alternative maintenance food?

Duck meal: a high quality hypoallergenic source of protein.
Chicken fat and sunflower oil: high quality sources of linoleic and arachidonic essential unsaturated fatty acids, which promote well-conditioned skin and a shiny coat.
Lecithin: provides a high level of linoleic Omega 6 essential fatty acids and contributes to fat digestion.
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, vegetables and fruit is added for optimum performance.
Yucca schidigera lowers the production of ammonia in the stool and decreases offensive odours.
Flaxseed meal contains an excellent source of essential omega 3 fatty acids for improved coat condition.
Vitamin C added for extra immune support.
