Animals
have unique physiological and
structural systems and, therefore, need specific food and nutrients to
remain
in optimal health. No longer insignificant, household pets are now
considered
family members who require special attention. Filling the need, the pet
food
industry has grown tremendously over the years. But you have to wonder
if you
are getting the best nutrients for your cat.
Cats
have been domesticated since early times
to catch rats and mice. Today, they are primarily household pets that,
like
dogs, require special attention when it comes to nutrition and care.
Cats are
carnivorous. But unlike dogs that can eat some plant-based foods, cats
need
animal protein to survive. Nutrients like taurine and arginine are
important to
a cat’s health, and without them cats could die. Taurine, for cats, is
a must
for heart, kidney, and eye health. Arginine detoxifies ammonia in cats’
kidneys
and is also important for heart and pancreatic function and keeping the
gut
healthy. Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid for cats, since
cats
cannot convert significant quantities of linoleate to arachidonate.
And, just
like humans, cats need B vitamins to support the cardiovascular system.
Cats also
have problems metabolizing certain amino acids from other nutrients,
like the
conversion of niacin from tryptophan, or vitamin A from beta carotene.
For that
reason cats have more stringent nutritional requirements than such
omnivores as
dogs and humans.
So
how can you be sure that you are giving
your pet the best nutrition? Besides high-quality commercial foods that
are
nutrient-enriched, food supplements are the best way to ensure your
pets are
getting all the vitamins and minerals they need to live long healthy
lives.
Life
Extension’s Cat Mix is among the best
products for protecting your pet’s health. Just two scoops per day
provide the
vitamins your pet needs to stay healthy and strong. Cat Mix contains
significant amounts of high-grade nutrients usually reserved for the
most
expensive human supplements. It contains flavonoids, amino acids,
antioxidants,
probiotics, essential fatty acids, methylation enhancers, and more.
In
fact, many commercial pet foods do not
contain the vitamins, amino acids, phytonutrients, and advanced
antioxidants
found in Cat Mix. Life Extension pet supplements contain the same
premium-grade
nutrients used in all of our products.
