*Cats are OBLIGATE Carnivores. Dogs are Omnivores.
Pet parents want their furry companions to live long, happy, and healthy lives, and ensuring they receive proper nutrition is a crucial part of that goal.
As more people embrace wholesome, natural foods and lifestyle choices, many of these health trends can also benefit pets.
For example, kale - a nutrient rich leafy green packed with vitamins and minerals - supports healthy skin and a shiny coat in dogs through treats infused with its goodness.
Probiotics, well known for aiding digestion and immune function in humans, similarly promote intestinal health in both dogs and cats, helping to reduce digestive issues like foul smelling stools and diarrhea.
Antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables not only support human health by boosting the immune system and slowing cellular aging but also provide immune benefits and slow aging in pets.
Other popular human food trends that translate well to pet health include grain free diets, which can help animals with grain sensitivities or allergies, although they are not suitable for every pet.
Yogurt offers pets beneficial bacteria that boost the immune system and reduce yeast infections and can be a tasty treat when given in moderation.
Salmon oil supplements, rich in omega 3 fatty acids, support healthy skin, eyesight, and may help reduce inflammation in both humans and pets alike.
By understanding and incorporating these nutritious trends thoughtfully, pet parents can help their animals thrive alongside them in a shared journey toward wellness.
